Once you get the murrini applied to the bead you have to be very careful about how much heat you put into the glass. If your piece is getting too hot then the murrini will run and smear as the glass around it begins to flow. Easy does it and maybe work a little slower. Try to avoid tool work, too, as this can pull the glass and contribute to the smearing.
