Bellisimos tus trabajos como siempre!!! La pequeña mascota está quedando hermosa!!! Esos colgantes en micromosaico estan espectaculares!!!👏👏👏 Vuelvo a decirte lo mismo: Sigue así!!! 👍🤗❤❤❤
Lol! Bandaid on left forefinger while working on Millie as I cut it quite badly while digging around in my studio for my filati pulling tools. Hard to see since it’s sped up!
I try! What you don't see: me setting up, me on my laptop, me ordering supplies, me driving around picking up supplies/artwork, me taking a nap on the couch in my studio, etc. I try to keep it interesting.
How do you do it? Lol I started a few pieces. Oh man loosing my wits!!! Lol is suppose to relax me but been a perfectionist here ahhhhhh!!!!! Laol! Wow... you got patience and enormous skill and talent girl!!!! You rock!! That in my grandsons lingo laol.
I'm not an expert, but I did try making filati with COE fusing glass it was not as successful as using smalti. Once in a while I will get a strand that more or less crumbles using smalti, so it is not 100% reliable. Could be it cooled too quickly. Who knows?
@@mazzonimosaics8222 , I am trying to find a class to learn how to do filati. I will be attending a Workshop in November with Mireille Swinnen (not sure if you know her?), to do a Jewellery Workshop. You got me inspired. I have had a go at making several pendants so far, but have purchased more bases to create more. It is expensive to purchase filati, between cost of product and postage. So making your own is the obvious choice. Thank you for responding. I hope you do not mind me commenting all the time? I am currently laying low with a virus and I found myself binge watching your You Tube videos. It didn't matter that I have seen them before. I find them mesmerizing! 💕Not to mention informative!
@@mazzonimosaics8222 that is a point! Yes, exciting year for Mosaics, as our mosaic association, MAANZ is holding this year's Symposium in Geelong, where I live. Mireille will be doing workshops there, but many of the international Instructors will be doing offshoot workshops around Australia. Mireille's will be held at Hann-Made Studios in Ocean Grove with Cheryl Hann-Woodlock as host. Do you know Cheryl?
It is evident how incredibly patient you are. That’s an exceptional trait . Your work is precise and beautiful
Thank you so much!

My pleasure 😊 Thanks for watching!
@@mazzonimosaics8222 I’ve seen them all. Binged watched from beginning. 😍
First videos were rough!
The intricacy of those pendants is amazing!! And I never see you use my most critical element: bandaids!

@@mazzonimosaics8222 Oh, no! I’m so sorry! But Marvelous Millie will be worth it I’m sure!
All part of the mosaic package!
You make it look so easy🤗

I love the colors you used in the demo project! Especially the back ground and gems. A very cool piece!
Thank you so much! I just grouted it today!
@@mazzonimosaics8222 Ooo, can't wait to see it!
How do you do it? Lol I started a few pieces. Oh man loosing my wits!!! Lol is suppose to relax me but been a perfectionist here ahhhhhh!!!!! Laol! Wow... you got patience and enormous skill and talent girl!!!! You rock!! That in my grandsons lingo laol.
Lol. Thank you so much! Keep at it...It's so rewarding!!!!
@@mazzonimosaics8222 you keep creating girl. I will keep trying in baby steps laol
Thank you for your helpful videos! What do you use to clean the finished piece before you grout it?
Depends on what is on there. Weldbond just needs water to clean it up.
To create Filati, does it matter what glass you use? I think for fusing, the glass has to be compatible?
I'm not an expert, but I did try making filati with COE fusing glass it was not as successful as using smalti. Once in a while I will get a strand that more or less crumbles using smalti, so it is not 100% reliable. Could be it cooled too quickly. Who knows?

@diannecrea7090 That workshop will be great with Mireille. Making your own takes gas, smalti and time. Not sure which is cheaper in the end.

I think your uneven filanı is more interesting and natural?
Definitely! I do supplement with purchased filati quite a bit.
