Red face Looking for someone to teach me...

I am in Tallahassee, FL. I am looking for some one to spend an entire day teaching me how to make great beads with my wonderful HH. I have two of them, plenty of glass, and lots of presses and shapers. I can come to you if you are with in a few hours.
I have a basic understanding of how to use my hh, but I am a clueless when it comes to anything fancier than making a round bead.
If any one is interested in helping me out, please let me know. I do not know how much these sorts of things cost, but right now, all my lampworking supplies are just sitting there not being used because I jsut sort of don't know what to do, and that is a major waste of moeny. I love working with the glass and the heat. I love to create. I have made several beads, focals, and a few sculptural beads. I am ready to get back in to this great hobby.

I hope to hear from you soon!

Tiffany

There is a guy named Michael Strivelli who was running a boro shop down in Railroad Square last time I was in town. He had all intentions of getting a teaching studio going. You might check with him. He may be able to put you in touch with the right person.
I went to Grad school in Tallahassee and visited Havana a few times. I love the area. Sometimes wish I had stayed there. Got lots of friends in the area.

I am from Texas, but I will never go back there to live. I love Havana. There are just enough stores and what-nots here to make it small town, yet convinient. And being so close to Tally Town is great!
Thanks for the info on the Railroad Square fella. I will look him up.
If you come back through this area, let me know.
