Peggy
Skycraft is an incredible instructor. She takes what initially
seems like a very "fussy", difficult and time consuming
technique and shows you just how easy and fun it can be.

The
is a very watchable DVD. My family, whose other members are not
planning to learn marbling, even found it interesting to watch
how it is done - kind of like going to the fair and watching
the glass blower. It's fascinating to see the magic.
