Il Merletto Lace School, Venice
Last Updated: Feb. 26, 2009
The Il Merletto Lace School is in Venice, Italy, just of St Marks Square.
“I love Lace! The ONLY lace school left in Venice, this is a dying art. Your children might not get the chance to see this unless they are in a museum. And it makes great light relatively cheap but exclusive presents for the special ladies in your life. It’s a winner.”

“Lace in Venice is a really good present to buy for your grandparents, or aunt or uncle that you have to buy something for! They have really great tablecloths, serviettes and other lace products – the best thing about lace is that it is a souvenir you can actually use. We do this in the morning when we get to Venice and takes about 20 minutes – one of the people who works there will tell you about the history of lace making, and it really is actually quite interesting!”

Make sure you try currywurst in Germany. It's basically a hot dog with tomato sauce (ketchup) and curry powder. Tastes brilliant and only costs 1 or 2 Euro.
