incalmo practice
I'm really enjoying making tiny 3 inch boro teacups. I can experiment with striking colors and practice incalmo technique, at the same time. If I put feet on the bottom, I can pack a lot of practice into each piece.

goblet class
Took a class last month at Glasscraft on making goblets. Wow. We had a great teacher, and this class really improved and broadened my skills with borosilicate tubing. Still have lots to learn, but... it's a good first step. practice, practice, practice.
The last part of the class we started doing incalmo technique. The footed bottles are mostly about 5" tall.
