Thimble Magic is a fascinating genre of manipulation that (not surprisingly) had its heyday when thimbles were a common household item.

And like the humble thimble, magic with them is less common now, so updating this area of manipulation presents unique challenges, but the results make you stand out.

First, you'll see a full routine of appearances, vanishes, color-changes, and transpositions ending with a full set of thimbles and a kicker rainbow finale.

Then, I take you behind the scenes, into my home studio, to teach you how to make my reliable thimble hold-outs.

And of course, you will learn every move in detail, including some modern moves and variations. Plus, the subtle nuances that make all the difference.

Then, you will see how serendipity sparks creativity as a miser's dream of sorts turns into a coffee-drinker's nightmare.

Not only will you learn about context and motivation, I'll tell you how to build all the props, including my brand new Airborne Coffee Cup. No liquid required.

And finally, I apply an unusual thimble vanish in a way never dreamt of as a silly winemaking kit produces unexpected (and tasty) results.

So, is there anything new in the world of thimble magic? Yes, absolutely, now there is. My solution to these challenges will teach you to think outside the thimble.

Dan puts in ALL the effort Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on March 12th, 2016
First of all, turning thimbles into coffee creamers is a stroke of genius (so mad props to Dan's girlfriend for making the observation). Secondly... the amount of work Dan put into that particular routine is mind boggling. I'm honestly just as impressed/delighted/amazed at the behind the scenes work as with the performance itself. This alone is a perfect example of what Dan does best: finding the core of an effect and bringing it up to date. I hope there is a similar magician in a hundred years who can take all of these tricks and make them fit into whatever weird society they'll have in the future.

Dan's the man...with a plan! I always see these from a different angle when watching Dan perform and teach. There's plenty of instructional videos out there on thimbles but I like the simplicity and flashiness of what Dan does here. The guy's a genius.

Dan starts with a classic routine with thimbles and then moves into more modern territory doing a routine with coffee creamers and then one with grapes that turn into wine magically. Great lesson!

Dan Harland made it again. He has a very easy method to teach, and the extra tips are priceless.

I'm a big fan of Dan and Tarbell lessons, and this is great, as usual.
