New Summertime Glass Murrini

Making glass murrini is hit or miss for me.

There are times when I think that a combination of colors will look great together but once made, pulled, cut, and tested I am sometimes disappointed to find that the end result did not turn out as well as I hoped it would.

I have spent many, many, (many!) hours making murrini cane that just end up getting stashed away in my ‘failed attempts’ jar – after all that time spent on them, I simply don’t have the heart to throw them away. 🙂

So when I make murrini that actually comes out beautifully you can imagine how excited I am!

Here are two recent lampwork glass murrini successes in new color combinations for Summer:
