My birthday was back in November around Thanksgiving and my brother and his wife gave me the most creative gift. Courtesy of my mother’s brilliant idea, they gave me a workshop about learning how to marble paper. Fantastic! I was so excited I couldn’t wait to take the class. I took it over the weekend and had a blast! A new obsession for sure!
My first batch of papers
Learning how to throw stones
The finished first piece
Setting up the bullseye
Can you believe how stunning these papers are? I am still amazed and transfixed by their beauty. Luckily for me, I had an amazing instructor, Barb Skoog, who taught us the fundamentals of paper marbling in the Turkish tradition. Then, we got to play and I went a little crazy. I created some beautiful papers that I will showcase in upcoming posts. There is more to learn and I enjoyed the fact that I was able to stretch my creative muscles in a completely different way. Thanks Barb!
Happy crafting!
