MOSAIC TILE FUND RAISING & MOSAIC TILE COMMUNITY EVENTS 
If you have an annual fundraising auction or you’re thinking about doing a 
community fundraiser than this is the workshop for you! 
It’s really FUN and it can be quite profitable!

HOW TO GET MOSAIC TILE CLASS/ FUNDRAISER STARTED:
The key to a successful event is planning the details in advance. Get together with members of your school, association or organization and see who would be willing to chair the project. Determine how many people will be participating in creating a Mosaic Tile Masterpiece, to be donated back and auctioned off at your event.
 
There are countless projects that can be created and your budget will usually dictate the size and detail of the individual works of art.  Put out a request to your population and ask that they donate items such as broken china, bottle caps, marbles, ceramic tile, knick-knacks, and such, that can be included in the mosaic tile pieces being created. Establish a place to collect small items to be distributed later to the individuals creating the pieces. You can also purchase your supplies from us...your choice.
 
Once you’ve decided on the number of participants and the mosaic tile project/ theme, we’ll put together the materials list and instructions to complete the project. When we have all of your information, we will organize, order and ship your materials with complete instructions to the chairperson of your project. Please be advised that younger children should always be supervised during a mosaic tile project for obvious safety concerns with sharp objects and adhesive/grout products. Always remember to protect your eyes and hands when working with mosaic tile projects.
 
OUR STUDIO IS IN HISTORIC DOWNTOWN JORDAN • MINNESOTA Groups of 10 or less in the Minneapolis/St. Paul area can call our Jordan Studio to order materials and schedule studio time to start their fundraising projects.  Pricing varies with individual group requests. Please contact us for details.  
 
FREE MOSAIC TILE FUNDRAISING INVITATION to Print and Send – We’ll customize the text and send you a copy to print out, drop it in an envelope, address, add postage and mail.  No Experience Necessary!  All tools and *materials included. Bring a small pail for grouting.
 Cost: Pricing depends on size of project & materials used.

Start a mosaic tile "bits n’ pieces” treasure chest.

Save those broken pieces of a favorite cup or plate, broken pieces of jewelry, toys, game pieces etc. Find those childhood mementos, buttons from a favorite garment. By creating a special place where you store a whimsical collection of your past, you’ll find that it will become the catalyst to help you create a mosaic tile piece that is really something special.        


Mosaic tile projects may include buttons, jewelry, ceramic, china, mementos, badges, photos, hardware, bits of glass, stained glass, mirror and toys. There isn’t a right or wrong way to create with Bits & Pieces mosaic tile. That’s the beauty of it. Just get out your glue, find a base to work on and see what develops. Sometimes you need complimentary colors and sometimes you don’t. If you don’t try, you’ll never know. Our gallery has some samples of various pieces we’ve created. Watch for current mosaic tile pieces to be added in the upcoming days.
