Tonic Studios Glass Cutting Mat, Black, 14" x 23"

Wow, and wow again... what a fabulous product. I don't normally 'do' reviews, but I have to share my love with this Tim Holtz glass media mat. Yes, it's quite pricey but you get what you pay for in superiority and quality. It is heavy but the eight small non-slip 'feet' keep it stable and stops any movement on my work table and makes it easy to pick up. In my opinion, this is something everyone needs in their craft room. I have been meaning to get one for ages, then decided to bite the bullet and buy one, and guess what, I am so very glad I did. I tested it by blending Distress Inks onto card from it, which in my opinion, far better than my other media mats. I have used alcohol markers and heat embossed on it. I let mediums dry on it and then cleaned it to see how easy that would be - no problems! All in all, I tried to use every kind of product with it that I normally would as a crafter, and was not disappointed. Since buying this mat, I have now ordered the media tool set (unmarked ruler) as I feel it would be great for lining up words on my project as I am hopeless at keeping things straight!! However, the measuring grid marked in inches and cms along the edges and the 1inch squares are fantastic for helping to ensure level positioning. The removal silicone non-stick white mat gives options when your water colouring and inking, however, keep in mind that alcohol ink will stain it. All in all, this is a 'must have' tool and is the best glass mat I have ever bought, I would highly recommend this to anyone wanting to work with mediums in one place. It's FABULOUS!

What a fabulous product. I have other glass mats but this is in a better league, Premiership as opposed to Championship. It is expensive (it pays to do one's research) but the quality is undeniable. It is a very heavy object, the eight feet are securely attached, it does not wobble or slide about, easy to clean and like all Tim Holtz its features are well thought-out. I love the level surface and it does create a natural barrier to stop the 'creepage' of stuff into one's work area. I don't see the need for the left-handed version, just use this one 'upside down'. I have kept the grey corners that came with it for delivery but I daresay they will be binned in due course as they are not required in its use. I don't have a dedicated craft space so I have to put it away after every session, for ease I slide it under a sofa.

Great for crafting, size is great, good value for money

Good price and delivery.This is a solid, well made heat proof craft surface.The travel cover is excellent quality.Very Happy, Thank You.

Perfect for my crafts. does what it says

Well worth it for a great cutting surface

I hesitated for a couple of weeks before ordering this. I talked to several crafters to get their opinion and 100% said do it! I'm so glad I did as it is absolutely great! Easy to clean, easy to use, perfect for messy projects and mixing paints and inks. It is a little heavy but I don't plan on taking it anywhere (there is a travel-size if I do). I also ordered the sleeve, just in case.

This is perfect A3 size, and I like the extra side section to mixed medium and inking too... looks great on my desk
