Mosaikit is the brainchild of Mosaic Artist Teresa Mills.
Teresa has more than 20 years of experience in the medium. She has written four books on mosaic art which have been translated and published in more than thirty countries. She has worked extensively on mosaic projects in schools and with groups of adults. She continues to experiment with the art form, most recently producing a series of stunning, finely beaded insect designs.
Unicorn Mosaikit - £12.00
Mosaikits are a wonderful introduction to mosaics. The pixelated design means there is no need for cutting, so no mess or sharp edges. Mosaikit offers forty designs with everything required — tiles, baseboard, glue — included in a lovely cotton bag. They make a lovely gift for arty crafty kids or an ideal party or ‘rainy day’ activity.
The Unicorn Mosaikit is a lovely craft kit and will make an ideal gift this Christmas, everything you need is in the cute tote bag, which can then be used again once the Mosaikit has been created. The kits come in 40 designs including animals, words, letters, rockets, trains amongst other things, there are so many and they are all lovely, there are even Christmas ones.
If you don't think the kits with animals etc will be for your gift recipient, there is a Boredom Buster Kit which is also £12.00 and contains everything needed to make 2 coasters, this might be something a slightly older child might like, or if not, there is also the Mosaic & Decoupage Keepsake Box which is £15.00 and has everything needed to make a lovely keepsake box with a ceramic tile initial on the top which comes in different colours for you to choose from, including a sparkly one which is lovely.
Also available from Mosaikit is the Boredom Buster Box which is £19.50 and contains everything needed to make 8 coasters, I think this is a great price and would also be a fantastic thing to buy for a child's party as an activity and works out at £2.43 per child and they can take their creation home too, my girls would have loved to do this at a party.
I have gifted the Unicorn Kit to my lovely friends little girl, Mia, who loves Unicorns and her mummy assures me she's going to love it, once Mia has opened the kit and used it, I will ask her thoughts and edit this post to let you know what she thought.
Overall Thoughts
I really like the Mosaikit and think it would make a lovely gift for any girls or boys this Christmas, or anytime of the year to be honest. There are so many designs to choose from and some other items to choose from too and all at affordable prices.
I love how many designs there are of the Mosaikits, my daughters would have loved them when they were younger, they loved crafting and I know these would have been perfect. I would definitely recommend checking out the Mosaikit website and checking out all their products.

Have the children in your life tried Mosaikit? Or do you think they would like to? And which one of the kits is your favourite? I like the giraffe and the dog, they are so cute, but they are all so lovely I'm spoilt for choice.
