Paper Weights




Last week Alyssa's class room went on a field trip to a local museum to see their famous collection of lampwork and mille fiore paper weights. I was called in as a last minute chaperon and I am so glad I was able to go. The kids had a great time and the paper weights were beyond amazing. They were so delicate and detailed. We saw all sorts of beautiful glass pieces, but it was hard to photo graph them behind their lit glass display cases.

On our way home, Alyssa was telling Isaac about the museum and how they made the paperweights when she suddenly asked who dusts all those pieces of glass? Good question, Alyssa.
