If you have always wanted to know HOW those fancy endpapers in books are made, this DVD not only shows you, but teaches you to make your own! No talking heads here; lots of hands-on views and step-by-steps. I've taken marbling classes and I paid twice as much as this DVD to learn half as much information as was packed into this set of lessons.
The interactive gallery is great: you click on the icon and it takes you to the section where you learn how to make it. Peggy talks about design while she shows you steps; she expands on materials and safety issues during the gallery and even when the credits are rolling you get to see her personal art journal!
Just so much bang for your buck it is unbelievable!

informative, worth the cost of the DVD just for her recommendations regarding brands of water colors and acrylics and suitable papers. I followed her instructions for making rakes, combs, etc. and loved to watch her marbling technique.

This DVD is awesome. I've always admired marbled paper but was intimidated by the process. This DVD breaks the marbling process down into easy steps that takes the mystery out of the art.

The magic of creating these papers takes place in front of your eyes.

PageCraft has done it again. I have been waiting for this DVD since I saw the preview on Tim Holtz's Altered Journey DVD. I never thought I'd be the paper marbling type, until I saw this. Now I know I can do, will do it, and will create wonderful papers. This is a must have for anyone who uses handmade papers, or wants the look of handmade papers, in their scrapbooking, stamping, bookmaking, etc.

You'll love it.

Explaining marbling is difficult enough. But, explaining marbling and making the tools in particular in this excellent video is definitely a tour de force. Bravo, well done. Is sitting on my shelf within reach for help when needed. It is great even for an experienced marbler.

MASTERING MARBLING video by Peggy Skycraft is very excellent! It is concise, and Peggy gives very clear instructions. It is enhancing my learning experience quickly! The only problem I have is with the sound. I tried it on two different DVD players and the same thing - I cannot get it to a louder volume. Thank goodness! I can hear it well enough, though, but you need to be closer to the screen than normal. I do highly recommend this DVD for learning the age-old craft of marbling.

I always want to learn EBRU (Marbling in USA), But I didn't have time in Turkey and decided to go one of the course in NYC. My wife paid lots of money for 2 days course BUT for me I watched DVD and I am ready to go.
I followed her instructions and loved to watch her marbling technique.

informative for first marbling learner, worth the cost of the DVD.
