The Crafty Pair are Julie and Pat
Sharing a love of crafts we work together selling our hand crafted goods and mosaics at various fairs and festivals throughout East Anglia. Sadly this has not been possible during the last year due to the Covid-19 outbreak. However, earlier in the year Pat created a wonderful depiction of hares in the moonlight, using mirrored glass for the shimmering moon effect and Julie's latest project was a commission incorporating bees and a sunflower.
We also have a permanent space in The Handmade Shop & Gallery in Bury St Edmunds where we exhibit and sell our mosaic artworks created from vintage china, stained glass and tiles. This lovely, unique shop sells a wide variety of original handmade work from various local artists.

Children's Mosaic Kits
Julie has designed a number of children's mosaic kits which are available for sale. The aim has been to create a series of interesting ideas to spark children's interest in mosaic. All the kits contain a good variety of embellishments, PVA based adhesive, instructions, mini mosaic tiles. They are aimed at 8 year olds upwards as younger children may find the small items in the kits too fiddly to handle.
The kits cost £15 plus p&p.
Mosaic Heart Kit
Contains all you need to create a 15cm mosaic heart to hang on the wall.
Includes pink and purple embellishments with plenty of sparkle too.
Under the Sea Kit
Contains all you need to create two underwater mosaics on 10cm tiles.
Includes four plastic fish, shells and glass gems.
Mirror Kit
Contains all you need to create a 15cm mirror with a decorative mosaic border.
Includes a child safe mirror, plus a variety of embellishments: flowers, insects, shells and sparkly gems.
Make a Mosaic Stall
During the summer months we usually run a popular children's mosaic activity,
taking our 'Make a Mosaic' stall to fetes and fairs throughout East Anglia.
Unfortunately we were unable to get out and about in 2020 due to Covid-19 but look who we met last year! We hope to attend some of our regular events later in the year.
The children choose a shaped mirror and then select from an array of colourful bits and pieces to decorate the rest of the tile, creating an individual mosaic mirror.
They have a unique memento of the day to take home.
We also sell a range of our handcrafted items.
