Using that measuring spoon is genius!
Hey Debbie!!! Thanks for that. I did several different versions of the flowers before i figured out that I could do the whole thing just using both ends of the measuring spoon. It turned out to be an elegant and consistent and simple solution to my problem. In the end, you actually can sculpt it more for an even more elaborate flower.
Your work is amazing, Ann. I don’t have your eye and patience for tiny details but your videos always inspire me.
You are amazing Anne. I love your videos and learn so much from you. Thank you!
Hey Jackie! Thanks so much!! 🙂. We appreciate you watching.
That is so beautiful 🥰 you are so creative my dear 💖
Hi Easter. Aw...thanks so much!! Happy potting to you.
Another great video. Love to watch you work. It’s so many great ideas from you. Thanks for sharing.
Wow, that is so nice of you Betsy!! Thanks for watching and have fun in the studio.
I love your work, your attention to finite detail is amazing. Love the piece you did today, it's stunning.
Hi Linda. That is so sweet of you. Thanks so much for watching. Happy potting
Such a fantastic outcome! I never thought of the measuring spoon to get consistent shapes/sizes like that! I WILL be using that! I really enjoy how the coil and the work at the top looks like a giant drip. So much interest! Thank you as always for sharing!
Hey Em! Thanks so much. I had to do a lot of creative thinking about how to get an elegant solution for this challenge. Im glad you enjoyed it 🙂
Gorgeous. As usual!
Thank you! 😊
Wow Ann! The techniques you used are gorgeous! Love the vase, thank you for an awesome video.
Another great video. I use ball feet quite a bit and I especially appreciate your technique with the measuring spoon. Thank you, looking forward to more!
Hey Suzanne. Thanks so much!!! I really had to get creative when I was thinking about how to make the flowers. I tried several different methods but wanted something that would be a consistent size and fit within my boundaries and also something simple I could teach to you. The measuring spoon (using both ends) was the most elegant solution and I just showed a simple way to sculpt it. You can get more creative with it to really make it complex if you want. Give it a try!
There you go… being amazing again!!🤗
I loved all of it, but the foot idea was the bomb!
I’ve often wondered why potters don’t use stamps more often, or cookie cutters. The metal kind can easily be made into any shape. Seems like it would save time. Your stamp turned out beautifully for you.🤗❤️🐝
Hey Deborah!! Aww...thanks so much. I like your thinking about reshaping the cookie cutters, I havent tried to do that. I wonder if you need special tools for metal working to make that work??? I will have to do some research, you know i love that.
@@annruel1982 lol I’m no expert at metalworking, but I wouldn’t think so, possibly a soldering gun. I imagine the proper metal thickness would help with it retaining it’s shape. What the proper thickness would be… I have no idea. lol But once you got it right, just think how easy it would be to produce patterns of almost any size?! Anyway, happy researching!! ❤️🤗🐝
@@deborahdanhauer8525 thanks Deborah 🙂
@@annruel1982 You’re welcome🤗❤️🐝
I will definitely be trying this one. I’ve seen some works similar to this but could not figure out how to go about it. Thank you, Ann!
Hey Betsy. Thanks so much for watching and i am glad I could help you figure things out . Go for it!!
Hey ANN! I'm trying to catch up on my Pottery Making Illustrated issues and how fun and exciting to see you had a feature in there! Congrats! As always beautiful work, beautifully done and loved reading it in a favorite publication 🤗
Hey Vicki!! Oh yes, thank you so much for reading that!! I just loved that technique and thought it might be a good article so I was happy that PMI thought so too. Great magazine!! Thanks for the kind word!!!
You deserve more subscribers. Every time a new Little Street Pottery shows up, I know it will be a treat. (In this case, almost literally)
Thanks - we're getting there!
Such a great video! So instructive
Thanks so much Liz. I really appreciate you watching. I always like to hear when someone learns something new. Have fun doing your own experiments.
Hi Ann. Yes, using cake decorating utensils produce really nice effects. I started doing this last year.
hi Anne I have said it before and ill say it again, you have the patients of a saint and the hands of a surgeon !!!! this bottle is amazing ! :)
Hey Ray! Thanks so much. It takes a little practice but once you get the hang of it, the results are really cool 🙂
Cake decorating is a very popular hobby and materials and supplies that translate well to sculpture and pottery are widely available at craft stores, even when pottery or clay working supplies and tools may not be and alot of them translate well across mediums with a little adaptation and ingenuity. The popularity of the hobby also makes second hand cake decorating supplies more widely available for next to nothing. Adopt, adapt and improve. The only thing I would look out for is that some cake decorating materials don’t actually take well to clay and cannot be adapted easily, so it is always worth thinking about whether you can make something translate.
Good tips. Thanks Quiet. A lot of times, if you get very creative like controlling the dryness or viscosity of the clay you can have more success when adapting tools for using with clay. You just have to do the work and experiment with it...that is what we are trying to do with our channel. Thanks for watching 🙂
Beautiful work and you are such a great teacher! Thank you for sharing your ideas.
WOW!!! I know I say this a lot but your creativity as AMAZING!! The spoon idea is AMAAAZING!!! I completely agree with the other comment that said you deserve way more subscribers!! Wouldn’t you know that just last week I threw away some cake decorating tools! I have 73 food allergies so no way I’m decorating any cakes or cookies! What was I thinking? I never throw things away and the one time I do wouldn’t you know I needed it! Never throwing anything away again! Hahaha. Thanks sooo much Ann. I do have the walnut hollow extruder from my polymer clay days so that’s good. Lol
Aww....Michele, you are always so kind. We really appreciate you watching and I am always glad to hear when people can watch our videos and pick up new tips. Im sorry about your allergies and even more sorry for your loss of the decorating tool. Bummer. It is always that way though right. Hindsight is 20/20. Well, give some of these techniques a try Michele. Have fun in the studio!
Beautiful….
I am just starting my clay journey!
Best of luck!
What an innovative way to make this bottle! I loved how it came out.
Glad you like it!
Excellent as always! ❤ Love the subject. You always make it look easy!! Thanks, Ann! PS- Love the bottom!
That is so sweet of you. Thanks as always for watching!!!😁
Thanks!
Wow, thank you so much Barbara!! That is so generous and will help us to offset some of the costs to doing these videos. We appreciate it!!
Beautiful!!
Aww...thanks Julie!
I 😮learned new techniques. Thank you so much 😊
I'm so glad!
So beautiful!
Thakns so much Lauren! I appreciate you watching.
@@annruel1982 I’m trying to slowly go through your videos. I don’t have much experience with pottery, but I really want to try. Do you have a beginners video or can you recommend something as a jumping off point.
@@Lauren_P_ Hi Laura. Thank you so much for going through our videos. Im glad they are helping. I do have videos for all levels of experience. It is hard to steer someone on a certain path when they are starting out because there are so many paths available. When I was teaching hand building, I would always start with the basic hand building techniques including slab work, coils, and pinch pots. When I would teach wheel throwing, it was all about practicing centering, pulling, shaping etc. If there is a skill you are looking for the channel has a "Search" feature that you can type in what you are working on and hopefully you can find it. Good luck!!
@@annruel1982 thank you so much!
Muchísimo trabajo
Very cool!❤
Hi. This video was so interesting. Thank you for sharing. I'm going to try to do something similar. 🙂
