Adding Marbling to Wraps

A fun little way to marble flat, let it dry, and then add in trims to your guide wraps or wraps.

Defo give that a try

If I have this correct. First you marble the sheet protector. Then you peel it off of them. Then you trim the marbling and apply to the rod as in the video. Do I have it?

@rickfike8466 yes! Let it dry for 2-3 days and slowly peel it. It's very sticky so make sure you don't let it stick to itself. I'll add another video of the process I did awhile back

@@thedecorativestudio been building for a couple years now and want to expand my techniques. Have stayed away from the deco wraps until I saw your video showing how little they weigh. So I bought Billy’s book and thats not going to do it for me. Too hard to decipher #1 and frankly not what I choose to wrap. I have seen your video classes and that seems more where I need to go. I have done simple chevrons, dragon scale, fade wraps, olive branches and tigers. Lately been playing with marbling. I wonder if I should skip the basic class you offer and move into the wraps I find more interesting. What are your thoughts? I’ve been after Joe Haywood at HFF to get you to do a live class here in Michigan. He says he’s tried but your calendars never seem to match up. I hope some day it works out.

@rickfike8466 we are working on for sure. The basics is explaining all the background info to the wraps like terms, directions, open vs closed wraps etc. It's a good place to start but it's entirely up to you. People have jumped and taken a class that interested them and they have succeeded. Obviously if you have questions, I'm happy to help
