Tried to make a "cold worked" bead :-) Now I have funny hollow bead with lots and lots holes :-)

In Michael Barley tut I find out how to make murrinis, and I wanted to have a murrini mold, but they are expensive especially for the beginner who needs everything :-) So, I decided to make it myself.
Now I am using it for about a year and it works perfectly   

Made two huge disks, and have no idea what to do with them :-)

I keep working on hollow beads. Love making them

Last week I was drawing with http://iris-art-school.com/, it was fun:-) Join me May 1 for more fun :-)

Last week I spend two days in Sedona AZ. I went to Melting Point to have a class with beautiful master Aja Vaz. I had a great time at the torch, and Aja is a great teacher and beautiful person. I am very thankful to her and Melting Point staff for great opportunity:-)
