A Few Days Closer....

Another week gone and a few days closer to the trip to Murano. It's Saturday morning and I just turned on the kiln. I've been trying to prepare for the trip by doing one perfume bottle/vessel each time I torch in addition to beads, plant stakes. I have this idea that I want to get my own glass collector card and the photo I will use is a grouping of my little bottles. I've actually only been making them for a few weeks now and I love the challenge. I hope you like them too and I'm including my latest one at the end of this post. He's a cute little guy at about 2" tall and he actually sits quite flat on the table (which is actually no easy thing with hot or warm glass).

Well, off to the torch - so bright and early. It's a good start to the day!
