THE HANDICRAFT VILLAGE


We took a short bus trip to a handicraft village where they blow glass, do filigree work with gold and silver, leather and pottery, lace. I loved watching them blo the glass. I was lucky to be last in line to purchase my vase and paper weignht so I was ab le to go back in and watch them for a while. It was amazing!!! I love blown glass. I have several pieces already. We saw a video of a master glass blower named Chihuly. They had an exhibit with all of his work in Omaha and it is unbelieveable what he does. www.chihuly.com/glass.html.
