Thanks for being here everyone! Van life has just gotten sweeter and sweeter. The more I find passion in various things, the more I realize I can make almost anything work in the van. There have been many questions about how I've been able to merge pottery and van life.
For right now, I continue to use the studio in town to do the majority of my work, and to fire the pots. I hope to do the entire process off-grid in just a few short months on the property.
Big projects to come!!
Aww he was trying to reply a scene from Ghost... That was cute
🥰
Was beautiful girl , keep up beautiful memories, we are also going to be living off grid but in the humblot or trinity mountains of Northern California , but with 3 childern and my fiancee
You should make some with akela’s nose boop on it. They would be so unique!!!
That would be soooo cute! Someone else said a stamp with her paw print could be cute too!
The Ghost scene remake was adorable! Good effort Chris!!!
I LOVE the pine cone mug !!
Chris your scene from ghost was cute…🥰Linnea love watching you make all that amazing pottery in that beautiful location. You look so relaxed and peaceful.
I knew immediately what he was doing when he asked if the camera was on. ❤
You are very talented! Love your cups. A woman of many talents.
Thank you!
Exactly, is there anything you're not good at? You're amazing!
You seem so bright and happy; I don't think I've ever seen you like this is any of your previous videos. It's so fun and exciting learning new things that you're passionate about; I've been learning about professional dog grooming lately and it's been a blast building a new skill.
Aw thank you for noticing that!
You could make the cracked ones planters!! They need some drainage on the bottom, you could find a funky way to hang them (maybe by the handle from the ceiling, etc..)
Great idea!
Beautiful job on the pottery! I love that you prioritize art in your life, wish more people did. There is an art form for everyone!
Excited to see what you create on your property.
Awesome job with the homemade moisturizer! I honestly had no idea what you were doing 😂. Love Chris trying to recreate the scene from Ghost! 💜
Finally someone who explaines what it is..I didn’t understand at first!🙈. Thank you!
Placing your mugs on a few sheets of newspaper will allow the base to move as it shrinks :)
Great tip - thank you!
Such a sweet, tender moment with Chris recreating Ghost. I saw how he adores and respects you. Beautiful creations Linnea... you are a wonderful teacher in just being you
I really appreciate this ♥️
Grab a spray bottle next time you are at the store for water. Perfect to use for the pottery during the process in the desert . you can also spray a few pumps on the pieces throughout the day while keeping them under the plastic.
:)
You are so gifted! Your artistry comes through in your writing, and storytelling, videography, pottery, and the artwork on your pottery, and the process of making your homemade lotions. And that was just this video. I just love watching every video. I feel truly blessed to be a small part of your journey just by watching!
Thank you so much 😀
The clouds….⛅️ and loving Chris he is such a keeper and them some.
The Ghost scene he was trying to create, so romantic 👍👍❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Haha I couldn’t hear a thing so it was very funny looking through the footage after. We got a good laugh!
Oh man I just love that you just got for it with anything you do. You are absolutely brave and fearless and it’s really great to see. 🙌🏼
I really really appreciate it!
Wonderful Video
Love Chris’s spoof of the scene from Ghost 😃
LOL😂 Love Chris’ effort to redo the scene from “Ghost” even though you had no idea wtf was going on. lmao😂
My grandmother used to have a manual pottery wheel. It had a large stone underneath (in a large wooden ring) that she would push with her foot to make it go round & round. Must've been exhausting! She made most of the dishes for our cabin, that we still use today. 🙂 Happy Crafternoon~~ xo
Haha! 😂 He was trying to do the scene from Ghost 👻 and you looked so confused!! 🫤
I get so excited n filled with joy when i know u post . I absolutely love you n your videos. Thank U . Safe travels n God Bless Ya'll ❤❤❤❤
Same here!😁
I think Patrick Swayze would’ve been proud. Fun episode.
The portable wheel was such a cool loan! So cool to see that fun side of Chris! ✌️❤️🍵
Love your pottery. When you got the beef fat I thought you'd make your own candles. That is what they did before electricity. I remember doing for a school project when I was young. You could make your own pottery jars and fill with fat made candles. thank you for your videos!!
Lovely pottery and beautiful art work. Love the ones with no handle 😊
@15:00 - TALK ABOUT THE DREAM LIFE! Spinning pottery in the middle of the desert....so happy for you and this beautiful life you've created.
It definitely feels like a dream at times! Thank you for your shared happiness ♥️
Lol, that was really sweet of him to recreate a romantic scene with you. I really enjoy the format you are filming in lately it seems more personal and easy like a Sunday morning.
Thank you so much!
What a fun video this week! Pottery, face balm, and an adorable Ghost re-creation. You had a busy week for sure. Thanks for bringing us along. 😊
Ghost! That was so cute!
Linnea you are such an inspiration to watch😊your talent and persistence in life will take you very far! I especially love seeing you with Akela❤️
That’s so kind of you to say! Thank you! :)
Love your videos❤❤❤
14:19 the cluelessness ...😂❤Precious!
Linnea, I loved this video, thank you for sharing. You are so talented and your pottery is beautiful! I am building my van currently and encouraged to figure out how to include a proper work area for my crafts! Also your new energy was evident and a pleasure to watch. Hats off to Chris for his contribution... "your audience will get it", yes, indeed!!! LMAO, I was crying - it was great!
Okay… I’m in actual tears over Chris trying to re-enact Patrick Swayze in Ghost.. and you being all “wtf…are you doing??” 😅😅😅
What a lovely video Linnea ty. Your doing so much and so fun. All educational tasks will assist throughout life. Beautiful mugs and hi Chris and pups, loved the ghost scene 🐶
That makes me laugh so hard!! 😂 She had NO Idea what was happening!
14:14 oh my gosh that ghost spoof was hilarious
I love your positive attitude Linnea. You always treat a failure, not as a defeat, but as a learning experience. That is such a beautiful quality to have. Keep doing and being who you are…….. A strong woman with great energy and morals.
Love the one with pine trees and the moon! Great video! Love watching you learn, and Akela’s curiosity lol 💕🐶
Hi Linnea, I’m sorry to see your beautiful pots crack on you. I have a suggestion you might want to give it a try. I make Hypertufa planters and to prevent the plant pots from cracking after the form has been made, I wrapped them loosely with wet newspapers and put them into a plastic bag and leave them for several days to slow down the drying time and to prevent cracking. Just a thought you could give it a try.! ❤
Kudos to Chris and the Ghost scene!😂❤
Hee, hee to Chris’s joke, I love your videos! Thank you so much for sharing your life with us.😸
Haha it was so good! Thanks so much for watching ♥️
I about peed my pants with the Ghost. Chris is funny😅 Love all your skill building and shedding what no longer serves. Happy spring❤
Haha I thought it was soooo funny too! Thanks so much, happy spring to you too!
What a busy, productive schedule you have, Linnea. Pretty impressive! Thanks for sharing.
It was quite the week haha thanks for watching!
I was so captivated by the spring vibes and joyful energy in this video! Loved this! Love the mugs, love the soundtrack, love Chris recreating the ghost scene and you just being like, wha? Haha x super cool to see how you made those creams, and just all the love - haha x x from my heart to yours, mwchwah! Grateful for what you share x
I hope that your positive attitude is contagious. Love it!
Chris re-enacting GHOST and your reaction was hilarious. 😂
Haha I couldn’t hear anything and I was sooo confused! But when we looked back at the footage it gave us such a good laugh
The scene from the movie "Ghost" was hilarious well done!!!
I agree! Haha
I wish i could have one of pieces i love your work its absolutely Beautiful 😍 🤩
Aw thank you! I'm selling them over on Patreon: www.patreon.com/linneaandakela
Haha. He was doing a classic scene from ghost and you were NOT having it 😂
He is so nice.
Wow! What Bright Energy you have this week ! Love that you chose Snake , an energy of transformation! Maybe a Spirit Helper wandering in from your quest in Peru - also Wondering if pottery that cracks like that could still be used as small planters . Cris loved the Ghost Scene input!
Check out Ted Andrews Animal wise and series for reading!
Love your content :
that was adorable! he reanacted the scene from GHOST 🥰
This may be my favorite video of yours. ❤
You are so funny throwing your cups that cracked. You are very creative and it is fun to watch you create different things.
Hilarious Chris! Awesome awesome designing and throwing mugs! Tallow cream demo thanks!!
Chris was a genius and hilarious for that Ghost scene!!! 😂
The Ghost reference: hilarious! 😂
Using grape seed oil for skin care is also great. It has no smell, so you can add any essential oil/s & the oil will be more fragrant. I use black pepper essential oil for my husband & the smell is divine. You got guts kid. Koodos.❤😊
Tallow 101. Loved the tutorial. At first, I thought u were making candles?~~ but, instead moisturizer! Love IT 🙂
Skincare is so important in the great outdoors~~
Great video!! Thank you for including us in your shenanigans! I love your mugs!! Blessings till next time! 🌝💕🦋🙏🏻
Great video!!! Love how Chris did the scene from ghost 😂🤣. Your pottery is beautiful. Your skin care recipes sound amazing as well. Take care! 😊❤️
Wow! You Go Girl! Your trust in yourself and your creativity to do things you’ve never done before! Love. It.🥰
I am so excited for you to have ALL DAY with a pottery wheel at your disposal 🤗 So fun! (The clouds going by in the time lapse was also amazing)
Chris pulling the ol Patrick Swayze, nice! 😂😂 #ghost
I love eating whole food sources, it's very grounding. You're awesome!
Linnea, you are pioneer woman! Making pottery outside, on a portable wheel, tallow moisturizer...wow. What's next? (Can't wait to see!)
I really appreciate it!! ♥️
Love the scratched snake cup 👌
Always a pleasure watching your videos. What an inspiration you are, thank you!
So much fun! Loved the video. 😊
❤❤❤ your videos, definitely should keep the snake mug, and your mom is going to LOVE a mug from you. It was very interesting to see what you did with the fat trimmings.
Awesome job. You are so gifted with a wise mind.
Your pottery is amazing even with the setbacks. Hey your learning the climate thing. The throwing and shaping.. you make look so easy when it surely isn’t!
So sweet.. the scene from Ghost.❤
I have heard how amazing tallow is and yours look so rich and of course moisturizing!
Thank you so much! Yes the tallow has been absolutely amazing, I will definitely do it again and keep experimenting :)
WOW LOVE that you made your own skin moisturizer. Great video your pottery is gorgeous Linnea
Beautiful pottery and The Ghost scene from Chris was great!
You are my sunshine ☀️☀️🌞
That was soooo cute he sat behind you just like my favourite movie Ghost!!!!
aw...jeez...Linnea....I was just getting ready to write to say use them for something else like pencil holders.....and as I started, ya tossed them....hilarious! but damn...I would have bought them to hold my stuff!🤣
Good idea!
If you add a bit of either Titanium Oxide or Zinc Oxide powder to your lotion, you have a moisturizing sunblock. Mix one jar day cream with this and apply before going outside. Use other jar without this as your night moisturizer. Off course you can just add it into the batch, and have the sunblock not blocking anything at night, lol. I did this before and added a drop or two green food colour and sold it to family members as a day cream and night cream. They came telling me how different the two felt and how it was getting rid of wrinkles, lol.
It's so fun to watch you throw. I'm pretty new to it as well. Your designs are great! I just built out the basement livingroom into my pottery studio. I have learned a lot in the process. One thing you really need to be aware of (you may already know) is potters lung aka silicosis. The silica in the clay dust can be really dangerous if you don't have proper air filtration, or at very least good exhaust ventilation. Can't wait to see what you put together on the land!
This one was magic ❤
Making your own moisturizer that is super awesome.
Love how happy you are ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you ☺️💛
Linnea,
I am not a ceramics expert but I know some who are and they use a large Styrofoam (light and cheap) cooler with a lid to store green ware and control humidity.
Your mugs are beautiful!
The moisturizer looks wonderful. I have psoriasis on my knees, marigold or calendula leaves= soak in olive oil ( or whichever you want ) I leave it 4-6 weeks in a dark place, then I strain the leaves out, heat the oil slowly, add some beeswax, then put an essential oil in - pour it in a small container and THAT clears the knees up faster and better than a $52 prescription from Doc and it leaves the skin soft and glowing. I’ve made same with plantain
Wow that is SO NEAT. Thank you for sharing! It’s amazing the more I learn, the more I realize how simple and natural a lot of remedies can be :)
Congratulations hun!!! On your cups and the lotions!!!
🙏🕊🫰💜💜💜
You could've made the cracked mugs planter with a plate you make to go under them.
Chris's Ghost reference...YES!!!🔥😅❤
Haha I agree!! To funny ♥️
Not the ghost scene 😂😂😂
😂😂😂
You are so creative with all you fun ideas and making it happen. Way to go and what in inspiration you are . Keep up the art stuff your very good at it. Bonnie
Thank you so so much Bonnie!
14:17 Chris is literally the cutesiest.... the audience def got it 🤣🥰
The chuckle I needed!
Thanks Chris!
Haha same!
Man girl, you are really good at the pottery thing! Loving that
Thank you so much!
Love you mugs, simple but beautiful
Congratulations on your progress with the mugs. For a beginner, you're doing an outstanding job. You're truly shining and inspiring. 🌹
Really enjoyed the tallow/skincare!!! My mother did ceramics for most of my early childhood. It was so much fun during the holidays, she would make charms, ornaments and fun Halloween trinkets for my classmates. I was always so proud of her and her creativity and most of all the joy she had sharing!!!! The Ghost "rendition" was perfect!!!! Dude was feeling it!!! :)
How cute was that Chris , I loved it
You are a busy lady ❤
Love your enthusiasm for life & learning. 😊❤
@14:20 an absolute keeper!!
