MARBELING DEMO          VENIE HINSON
Watch the demo then make your own as time allows!
Marbling is the art of floating colors on a solution, then combing through the “stones” to create wonderful colorful patterns.   Watch the demo on “how to marble” then it’s YOUR turn to have fun as time permits - right then, or possibly during mealtime or after you finish another class (takes about 15 min), then let them dry.  Create 3 poplar strips or a silk scarf.   Keep all or trade with others.  Class, prep & material fee $42
