I Robot I’m sure they mean the diversity, she goes into depth when she tries food and explains everything to the T. She also does videos that show how to make cheese and so on. She’s an amazing UA-camr I definitely think she deserves more subs
@@justicem4495 First sentence, I praised them for not exploiting their children as we would see so many other UA-camrs do. They are consise with the content, which is my second point. The show feels like two people working together and making something awesome and entertaining. Its balanced in all ways even educational/fun. But the content doesnt try to be fun, it becomes fun.
I'm not naming names, but there are UA-cam channels where the parents don't have jobs and all they do is film videos of their small kids each day to post as a family vlog. They're cute, but you quickly realize they're just living off their kids.
I would be careful with the aluminum. Unlike the natural clay and sand, you would be creating a fine dust of aluminum. If you do it please wear a mask and gloves. ❤ Safety first! 🤗
@@niabia7506 I know, what a nut job. They probably live in Los Angeles huffing 10 lbs of smog a year rubbing on shakra crystals. I think aluminum is supposed to be one of the chemtrail ingredients. These people are complete wackos.
that girl in okc silica exists in clay and exposure to it (superfine dust particles that the naked eye can’t see), can lead to silicosis (google it). just because something is “natural” doesn’t mean it’s safe. that said, the exposure for both the clay dust and aluminum dust at this level is probably not the worst thing if only done once but a respirator that blocks .3 microns is recommended. 👍🏽
back in the days of adobe houses, when my 5th grade teacher was herself a child, she says in her village one of her classmates mothers would clean and polish her dirt floors every day, and that they shined like fine marble.
When she said they used clay and sand, but added straw for it to hold together, my first thought was houses too! :) I thought of the old half timbered traditional houses we have arround here.
She keeps them "just anonymous enough". There is no mistaking that she lives for her family, and that they are a huge part of her life and influence in her videos... she's always mentioning her family and including them indirectly in her videos. Just enough to make us feel included and personally invested. It's wonderful.
Now you know how bricks are made, except they are either fired in a kiln or left in the sun to dry. Oh, forgot to mention, use more straw when making bricks. 'nuf sed.
Idk why, but the beginning of the video with your family was so incredibly sweet and beautiful. It's so strange that I teared up a little seeing how happy you guys are, it pulled out emotions in me I never thought I'd feel 😭
Your boys have gotten so big. It warms my heart. I have been watching you since 2012 and your videos really help me when I'm anxious and it has been wonderful watching your family grow. Not only are you a wonderful mother but also the mother of UA-cam. You should be fantastically proud of everything you have accomplished. You are truly an inspiration.
Clay particles are platelets and when you compress the surface they align flat and can reflect light, giving the surface the shiny look. I've been burnishing pottery for horsehair firing for the past week. Clay is amazing!
@@emmymade Yeah! I tried doing that too. I also tried taking some home but it fell on the way home :c. Because I was happy I got to take a wheel throw pottery class in high school (2014) so I could actually make some pretty cool stuff I got to bring home ^^.
Emmy, I adore watching you make videos with your sons. I love their eagerness to learn and your eagerness to teach them and play with them and have fun. I love seeing you do all of these great activities with them, teaching them all kinds of things from cooking to crafts and seeing their excitement to be involved and learn new things. It makes me so happy to be able to watch them grow and learn with you, it's absolutely beautiful. You are raising two wonderful young men who are going to grow up with a fascination for the world around them. You're an absolutely amazing parent, your boys are so lucky to have such a wonderful mom to show them all these great things. Even finding clay is a fun adventure and even just rolling a clay ball on a bottle is a fascinating experiment. It just brings me so much joy to see your boys' excitement to play, learn and make things. Just like their mom.
Seeing the part at the beginning with your family, made me tear up. What a lovely memory you just made with them. I wish I had family that would do that kind of stuff with me.
I was just recently watching another one of your videos and it occurred to me that you are an extremely busy lady. You are making and uploading three videos a week, running your other channel, posting to various social media accounts, researching and creating your videos, and taking care of two kids and your bees and everything else in between. So it’s coincidental you mention in this video you’re needing stress relief. As a single (divorced) mom to two teenagers who is doing everything alone, I need to take some pages from your book. Maybe I too need to make a shiny mud ball and just zone out and let the stress melt away (or try to). It beats furrowing my brows and pulling out my hair. lol You’re definitely inspiring! Thank you, Emmy! Chopsaws. ❤️
The process looks like a really relaxing way to spend an hour or 2 with your partner. Also, i can feel the excitement of your children in the video. I'm happy that you take them to do this this with you and they enjoy it. And it is a good idea not to share they faces until they are old enough. This is a really good video 10/10.
I am a member of skills share, and I have never looked back. I have seriously learnt so much on that site, from art, to writing, to budgeting, and even youtubing (I want to post stuff soon). You can learn so much, and improve on any skill that you have. If you want to support Emmy, go for it! You can't lose. ❤
You're actually a really really admirable lady. Famtatsic presenting, narration, filming, editing and wonderful span of emotions and insight. I salute you.
This left me with so many curious questions! Does it feel like a rock? Does it harden like one? Do you have to re-polish it every once in a while or it starts to get dull? Is it as dense as a rock, in the sense of being hard to break if it drops? (Although I'd be a little heartbroken if it broke in the attempt.)
i looove the soft music you put in while you talk, youre so calming and that just makes it even better :'-) and the intro was beautiful !! youre amazing !!!
Oh my. How grand. I actually have a few polished mud balls that were given to me as gifts several years ago. I didn't know though that they could be crafted as you have wonderfully done. I must try this as soon as I can get into nature and find clay mud. On my old home property a few hours from my home now there is clay ground in our old garden. But somewhere closer there must be clay and I will get someone to help me fetch enough for the project. ...Thank you so much, Emmy...may light and energy and comfort be in your life and world for you and yours. We are out here supporting you as friends/fans.
Thank you for allowing us to have a small glimpse of your family while allowing them to keep their anonymity. There is something quite heartwarming about the innocence of your intro and that would have been lost if you had chosen to show their faces. Thank you. ♥️
honestly i love watching emmy's video, she seems so genuinely excited when her lil projects go the way she wants and she's so informative at the same time. thanks so much emmy, great content.
emmy, you are a beautiful soul and i will never forget about two years ago, you replied to one of my comments and it was the most of the most precious moments ever. love you and keep being great!!!!
The cutest family!!❤️My oldest brother is a geologist and palaeontologist, but when we were younger he would go off looking for fossils while my Dad would dig for clay with me and my other brother on the beach at Bracklesham, West Sussex, UK. We used to love making things out of clay. My Dad being an illustrator and very good at making things would make clay Dinosaurs for us to play with. I remember he also made a kind of landscape out of bits and pieces with the clay for us to play dinosaurs versus cavemen. Somehow cowboys, Indians and a London bus ended up in the mix, but as you know with kids just about anything goes!! Just loving the videos. 😂😂😂❤️
I think that it is so sweet and enduring that you make videos that benefit everyone. You include the family in your endeavors and we learn something new in every video. I appreciate you very much Emmy.
Active meditation is nothing more than doing one thing with extreme reverence and Excellency and being present in the moment that those things happen... lovely video.
I feel so much happiness living vicariously through Emmy's seemingly perfect life. I know her life can't be completely perfect, but that's what makes it so beautiful. Thank you for letting us in, Emmy, and thank you for spreading happiness and love. We need many more of you.
Hey Emmy, so I tried the aluminum ball and here are my tips: 1. Gloves and place mat. When you’re polishing it, aluminum dust gets all over your hand and and the things around you and it’s healthy in that form. 2. Be amazed. The finished product will blow your mind😁 even though you’ve seen it be done before, haveing it in your hands is great. ( but i threw mine away because i had no where to put it😂)
I want to see you do the aluminum ball because I think you'll be the only youtuber that "tried" it to actually give it a respectable try and show the artform justice because that is your way. Also the snippets with your boys always warm my heart, I remember when you were still carrying your first little one ♥
I'm not crying watching your boys growing up, no, not at all. 😭 How absolutely precious are they? You have such a beautiful family, and I give you all of the respect for keeping them anonymous. 💜 Would you ever include them in your videos if they wanted to be in one?
I have seen many UA-cam rs do this, but I really appreciate that you acknowledged the history of Japanese mud balls. And I saw the great big story on dorodango too.
I was SHOOK at the beginning when I thought for sure that was your older son walking with their dad, and then the older boy ran into frame! Guess I've been following this channel longer than I thought! Time flies when you're polishing mud and eating bugs.
Loved that you included your family and went into the outdoors! With all the broken brick I wonder if there might not have been brick manufactured there back in the day. Also looks like a good spot to dig for old bottles and relics!
I started randomly watching your videos one evening.. now I’m seriously HOOKED. I’ve been binge watching lol I absolutely love all your videos 😃 Always so interesting! 💕
I live in western Pennsylvania and am an avid flower gardener. I swear my entire acre is clay with a couple inches of soil on top. I have hauled wheelbarrow loads of clay into the woods so I could add potting soil to the ground to grow my plants. If you every want LOTS of clay, I can hook you up! LOL Your family is adorable btw!
Such an interesting video Emmy! I did not know I could enjoy watching someone polish mud but I did. Your voice is so soothing. You should try asmr. The aluminum ball has been so over done and is such a waste of aluminum foil.
I really like that shot at the start of your family - I know you are careful not to show your kids, but you balanced a shot of them with privacy by not showing faces, yet being able to show a family walk outdoors.
I love how you speak of mindfulness and humility. My fiancée is Japanese and that’s one of the most beautiful things I’ve learned from him. Love this video and super love you ❤️
I make burnished aluminum balls from gum wrappers after i separate the foil from the waxed paper... i also sculpt with cheese wax from babybels...cool stuff!
I love that you include your family in your channel while respecting their privacy at the same time.
Cat Caffeine I agree especially since her children are so young
I agree. Her lil one is so big I remember when she made the video when he was just a baby 😭
@@holly5878 I remember when she was pregnant with the first one! And the second....
I agree.
@@Margar02 Same, I couldn't believe how big they have gotten. Hearing them sound so mature blew my mind! Time really does fly.
Haven't finished the video yet but I just wanted to say, the beginning of this with your family is beautiful
Aww...thank you.
eyyitsBella Yes, I agree. 😊
In her own words "So stinkin cute!"
I agree so stinkin cute is exactly how I felt!
eyyitsBella ikr totally almost made me cry
OH THE BABIES!! When the tiny one said “what is it” I melted
Yes!!! So precious!!
my heart melted with the father and son convo addition before that when Emmy shows them the dirt to fill the bucket 💕💯😀
Me too.😘
i swear to god , emmy have been killing the food trend for years. Her youtube channel is SOOOO underrated
She has over a million subscribers, I wouldn’t call her channel underrated
Food trend? Pretty sure everyone has to eat
I Robot yeah but she makes food and other things most don’t do I mean she’s made tofu and mozzarella cheese most people don’t do that
I Robot I’m sure they mean the diversity, she goes into depth when she tries food and explains everything to the T. She also does videos that show how to make cheese and so on. She’s an amazing UA-camr I definitely think she deserves more subs
Duy Linh Nguyen true
I applaud you for not taking advantage of your kids. You and your husband do a really good job on these videos.
Thanks so much.❤️

@@nicolep2424 I think Em just kinda showed that it's possible
@@nicolep2424 It depends on the type of soil you have. Too much sand, or having lime instead of clay will make this more difficult.
What country?
The answer to "How do they DO that?" And huge kudos for keeping your family anonymous.
Yes very respectable. Emmy is an Angel
She keeps them "just anonymous enough". There is no mistaking that she lives for her family, and that they are a huge part of her life and influence in her videos... she's always mentioning her family and including them indirectly in her videos. Just enough to make us feel included and personally invested. It's wonderful.
Why is it so good she doesn't show her kids? I figured they may have wanted to be on camera at some point
Some food
_Some clay_
*Some grass*
*_A shovel._*
CHOPSAWS!
And my axe!
Now you know how bricks are made, except they are either fired in a kiln or left in the sun to dry. Oh, forgot to mention, use more straw when making bricks.

Yeah! 💙
My mind: you have an exam tomorrow
Me: *HOW TO DO A MUD BALL*
🤣🤣🤣
Literally me right now
Yes, you should try the aluminum ball, I would love to see that :)
it was a hoax though, why would she waste her time on that?
@@r.m7114 This comment aged poorly lol. Coming here from the video where she made a shiny aluminium ball!

The intro was a pleasant change of pace :)
Glad you liked it.
The beginning of the video was so different I wasn’t expecting it at all. But it was so nice and happy idk I just had to comment how much I love it
Clay particles are platelets and when you compress the surface they align flat and can reflect light, giving the surface the shiny look. I've been burnishing pottery for horsehair firing for the past week. Clay is amazing!
what is that? horsehair firing...
I always loved digging up clay from rivers and streams. Relaxing and felt nice and squishy
So much fun, right?! As a kid I remember trying to make tiny bowls with clay we dug up - good times.
@@emmymade Yeah! I tried doing that too. I also tried taking some home but it fell on the way home :c. Because I was happy I got to take a wheel throw pottery class in high school (2014) so I could actually make some pretty cool stuff I got to bring home ^^.

Emmy your patience is just amazing! I always feel a sense of peace when ever I watch one of your videos.
I love how eager your children are to help. They are just precious. ❤️
Your children will be able to tell their kids about making mud balls with their grandmother. Cool.
Awhhh the beginning with your family warmed my heart you all seem so happy
Watching your video with closed captions; Dorodango first comes up as "DONALD UNCLE", then "DILDO DANGO"! 🤣🤣🤣
bahaahahaaaaaa lol
Girl!!!!! You are cracking me up!!!!! That was hilarious!👍🖤👍🖤🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂

Your family is adorable!!! I love that you respect the privacy of your family!!!
That looked like a fun family outing. I would of loved that as a kid
Yeah, it made me think of all the times my parents said "Go watch TV!" to keep us busy at home instead!

Ahh.. this brings back memories of Adam savage and his DoroDungo...
Very nice outcome Emmy well done.
That was actually my first thought when I clicked on the video. Like "Wasn't there a Mythbusters episode like this?"
Yeah, but didn't he use 💩? Pretty sure they were testing the saying "Polishing a turd" 🤣
Yes, Adam and _Jamie_ used dung. Lion's dung specifically I believe.
And they weren't allowed to say "turd" on TV, so they had to say "polish poo".
@@jethro4453 yes hense doroDUNGo... I'm sure Adam coins that term in the episode, ah I miss the good old day of Mythbusters.
Your projects are sooo do-able... and u make stuff nobody else is making... and ur so cute to watch! 😊
Amazing a ball of clay can become a glossy ball!
Right?! It's so cool.
the beginning was so pure and beautiful :’)
"Chopsaws.❤"
I have seen many UA-cam rs do this, but I really appreciate that you acknowledged the history of Japanese mud balls. And I saw the great big story on dorodango too.

Loved that you included your family and went into the outdoors! With all the broken brick I wonder if there might not have been brick manufactured there back in the day. Also looks like a good spot to dig for old bottles and relics!
I started randomly watching your videos one evening.. now I’m seriously HOOKED. I’ve been binge watching lol I absolutely love all your videos 😃 Always so interesting! 💕
The music you used in this video is so relaxing. And it was wonderful playing it to the visual of your family frolicking in the field. ♥️
Yay! I've been anticipating, ever since you first posted your attempts on Insta 🥰
Yay! Thanks for being patient.
Emmy, this video had such a wholesome beginning. Loving the change up and seeing the little moments that you hold dear.
oh your pitted dorodango still came out looking so pretty, its like youre holding the moon in the hand
I live in western Pennsylvania and am an avid flower gardener. I swear my entire acre is clay with a couple inches of soil on top. I have hauled wheelbarrow loads of clay into the woods so I could add potting soil to the ground to grow my plants. If you every want LOTS of clay, I can hook you up! LOL Your family is adorable btw!
The beginning to this video was absolutely beautiful... I loved it!
Wth, the beginning with the serenity makes it feel super emotional. The music is chill too, but I can't find the onion chopping ninjas.

This reminds me of my daughter's daycare days. She had such a fun! Those teachers there were the experts of 泥ダンゴ作り!
We have massive amounts of exposed clay on Lake Michigan and when spring comes around I'm definitely going to try this!
Do it! Our plan is to collect clay from our travels and make a dorodango collection. 🌎
I love how you speak of mindfulness and humility. My fiancée is Japanese and that’s one of the most beautiful things I’ve learned from him. Love this video and super love you ❤️
I make burnished aluminum balls from gum wrappers after i separate the foil from the waxed paper... i also sculpt with cheese wax from babybels...cool stuff!
