I have just returned from my second workshop on Murano Island Venice with the Master Beadmaker
For 3 days I had a wonderful time and learnt a lot of new skills
below are a few photographs of the days I spent there
October 2009

I had to leave Venice Island for Murano at 7.00am and you cant blame me for thinking 'Am I on the right water bus ?'

The first morning it was raining and its still dark as you can see as we zoom across the lagoon

I am now on my stroll to the workshop its around 7.45am now - I didnt want to be late!

As you can see there are no visitors around yet! heaven....its around 8.20am and I have just stopped for my first coffee!!

Still walking on my way to the workshop, not a bad route!

Along the way....

Nearly there......

In full swing working like little demons, this is my workstation and MESS!

Lunchtime and the sun is out! we had not even noticed....sooo busy...we go as a group for a delicious lunch that we all deserve

The view just outside the workshop

The Master at work, he is amazing

Another demo for us

A few of my hollow beads, now they are cleaned they are gorgous
