Sike

Cool short

At least you have hard floors. I too am in my home, but have carpet. Continually wiping with damp cloth, washing my tools asap in a tub. And using a handheld vacuum cleaner as I go, keeps things reasonably clean. Happy potting

Yo that's cool

the orignal inside out is winnie the pooh! Gosh, that takes me back to my earliest memories. What an interesting connection. I'm inspired to watch it and reconnect with my emotions!

Beautiful work! It looks like your pieces might have under fired, which will lead them to look slightly matte instead of shiny and glossy. To find out whether your kiln is reaching the right temperature, I would suggest getting some witness cones which will tell you the heat work that your kiln is doing. You would want to use 3 of them, 1 at your target cone, one above and one below (ex-firing to cone 6, you use witness cones 5, 6 and 7. Cone 5 should be bent to floor of shelf, cone 6 should be bent to parallel to floor or at 90 degree angle, and cone 7 should have just a slight bend at a proper cone 6 firing). Nice job! You can also refire your pieces if they don't come out as expected but just be careful because the glaze can run and stick to the shelf.

What is your emotional character? Joy, Sadness, Fear, Anger, there are so many! Let me know!

Hi Charlie. I first came across your videos today when you were showing your home pottery setup, and you explained that you were a new potter. I am as well, I've been doing wheel throwing for about a year and i just started selling my pieces in September. My first thought was- girl, it's lovely to think of aesthetics when setting things up but let me tell you it's gonna get messy so fast, especially in the beginning! Until you have things down, your hands and everything else will be coated in clay and you'll have a lot of reclaim even if you don't flop. I'll subscribe to your channel and give you some tips here and there where I see it might help, if you like. First thing is that you're doing great. Wheel throwing is hard, and you will get it down eventually, but no matter how many videos of people you watch throwing on the wheel, it's not going to increase your skill, what you'll need to do is just practice practice practice. As you throw, you'll train your hands to be steadier and it will get easier. Don't be afraid to scrap once you get off center and don't try to shape just yet. Start with straight cylinders, don't rush the pulls and once you gain height remember to slow your wheel down. You got this!

I’m a self taught potter as well. I’m a year in and going strong, keep it up! Just a loving tip, maying research not using the canvas covered wood. Regular wood works just fine and can be wiped down clean, the clay doesn’t stick. The clay dust embeds and stays in the canvas fabric forever. I’m a bit paranoid about clay dust since I’ve got kids as well. 😊

Great video! The slowness at the top of the morning leading into calm productivity, the music, the angles, the pottery pieces - everything was really nice to watch!

Love the diversity of the shots you captured in this vlog. Thanks for opening your home and your weekend routine to us. It's like we're doing our sundays together again!

My husband must have the same problem.. wears glasses and contacts - still can't see the trail of crumbs he leaves behind!

In your husbands defense he might be too tall to see the crumbs and you might just be closer to them 🤷‍♂️

So fun to watch your process as an aspiring ceramicist myself! What is the cheese grater looking thing used for at the 7:25 minute mark?

Thats amazing!!! 😮 i wanna tryyyy pottery too~ it always amaze me

You are getting some really nice results. What is the name of the green glaze? It looks like wasabi.

Girl, I thought you were wearing beige gloves - turns out its a messy process :P

Wow, those pancakes have me craving a home made breakfast!

Hi ! On cracked handles, better if the handle is the same or close to same thickness as the mug, shrink rate on lighter clays are challenging with handles . Vinegar instead of water can sometimes repair a cracked handle . Cheers 👍

Way to go!

Also a beginner but absolutely love it. I took some classes to make sure that I would like it as much as I thought I would. I am processing my own clay on my land and have finally accomplished a level that I am happy with. Can’t wait to learn everything! I love the historical significance of such a wonderful and practical art.

Did you buy a kiln without having learned pottery first? You dont have any place to take classes to learn and see if it is something you realy like more long term?

girl math 😂 drives my decisions everyday!! or maybe its simply a pursuit of happiness :P

watch my hair go wild! 😁

I hope you're failing your way to success!

best friend checking in :D

I'm new to making UA-cam content as well, and wanted to stop and say I love your video!!! ❤ You gained a new subscriber! 🥰🩷

Charlie... PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE..... ALWAYS USE A RESPIRATOR WITH A CLEAN FILTER AND SURGICAL GLOVES WHEN HANDLING GLAZE CHEMICALS. Many chemicals used to make glazes are heavy metals and / or carcinogenic ! I too prefer the dip method and mixing your own glazes becomes necessary. You look like you are off to a wonderful start. Best Wishes.

I truly enjoyed your tour. I’m a high school ceramics, drawing, and painting teacher. Your video has inspired me to set up an ceramic studio in addition to my drawing and painting Studio. I just subscribed. I hope you will continue to post. Best wishes on your pottery journey.

Ooooh this is delightful ✨️✨️✨️✨️ congrats on your studio and yes, you are a ceramist part- time and all💖 i am new to pottery and used some of the pieces that didn’t turn out to hold seeds, votive candles and change for laundry. the rest i returned to the bucket😅 maybe paint that shelf a shade of green lighter than your walls..or orange? take care!🪄

Life has no instruction manual! I love that.

This is great Charlie keep going - proud of you girl

As a fellow beginner potter, I can see you have everything you need to get started and become successful! Because I live in an apartment, the kiln I purchased cannot be used so it's collecting dust. I pay a monthly membership and have to drive across town to have my ceramics fired. Using my pottery wheel in a small apartment can get messy and since I don't have the proper sink, I can't use it either. So I'm going to pivot and start hand building instead. Anyway, good luck on your pottery journey!

I really enjoyed this video, Charlie! Thank you for encouraging us to be more childlike and to embrace those sides of us…💗 I too have a lot of hobbies and each one makes me so happy! One thing I really enjoy is adult coloring. It’s been a hobby of mine for almost 10 years now. It’s so therapeutic for me.

Way ahead of 2025 New Year's resolution or behind last year's... not sure but I'm happy with the progress. How about you?

Yeah, a familiy of my own and a space for me and mine aren´t anybody elses dreams, they are basic human needs, which have not been met for me. So feeling lost is tipping towards feeling unneeded and hopeless.

First time practicing properly with a drone 😮

Never to late ❤

Let's see how far this goes! Thanks for chilling with me!

You should check out minimal mom, she’s great with talking about family minimalism but great video, highlighting the potential downfalls.

Does the beach speak to your soul?

Something I'm working on balancing? How about you?

Have you tried using concept mapping to organize your thoughts?

Have you tried documenting your life?

How do you unpack or better yet, do you bring in your groceries in one trip? lol
