Enjoying your videos and learning so many tips and tricks!

[@traceyschaufele]

Your clear instructions inspired me to try! Thanks so much!

[@barbarac4138]

Loved your teaching. I use an eyeliner brush to glaze tiny spots like eyes. They work better any little paint brushes I have tried.

[@hobblecreekpottery]

Great tip!

[@crystallarson5872]

I love watching you creating these little guys.

[@hobblecreekpottery]

I'd love to see a picture when you finish. Thank you!

[@bruceengland7488]

I'm making gno.We for our home pottery sale in December....so I got me a wooden pizzzel (sp?) and it makes the job so much easier! Thanks for the great tip!

Thank you for sharing your talents awesome job

[@hobblecreekpottery]

You're very welcome. Thanks for watching.

[@cheaquettaj]

You had me at Gnomes! I watched your entire process, subscribed, and gave you a Thumbs Up! Your pleasant voice and mannerisms allowed me to watch while resting from a difficult morning. Thanks for the great Gnome idea and creation process. I will definitely try these one day soon.

[@katherinewells3099]

These are so cute! I'm a potter north of Seattle. We have the opposite problem here. Plenty of humidity. Things can sometimes take a while to dry.

[@ankesander-meyers3714]

Love your gnomes!

[@susiegentry1199]

Great tutorial!

[@lynnschultz5360]

My mom 92yo loves gnomes . Going to try to make her a Christmas set and think I can use a sugar cone for form since I don’t have the wooden tool

[@kristen8115]

I loved your gnomes and immediately went to the studio and made three, well after I went to three craft stores looking for a pizelle and other tools i didn't have.

[@hobblecreekpottery]

That's awesome!

[@rcl-crafter8]

Fantastic video!! Works for all types of clay making. Really good instructions and beautiful work!

[@hobblecreekpottery]

Thank you!

[@terryech9110]

Best ideas for keeping it simple but with room to customize for the season!

[@hobblecreekpottery]

Exactly! Great jumping off point. Thanks for watching.

[@OldLady-um9kt]

I'm also in Utah and now it is 16 outside. Burr So relaxing to watch you. But the artist in me says give this a try. Thank you.

[@M3rVsT4H]

These are great, will definitely make a few.

[@martinaspohr2663]

I just found you on KZbin and I’m loving your tutorials! I would love to know where you found that tea spout’ tool. Thats a game changer for making gnomes!

[@hobblecreekpottery]

I found it on Amazon. The link is in the description. Yes, total game changer. Gl as f you found me!

[@debbiewilsomn4314]

I'm back to your gnomes. Love them. what cone do you fire them to in bisque and what glaze do you use and fire to for completion. I just love them

[@hobblecreekpottery]

I bisque fire to c cone 04, then glaze fire 5/6. For glazes, I like celadons if I have texture.

[@johsheli]

We live down in southern Utah and you got that right low humidity in the summer and winter is just as bad indoors.

[@hobblecreekpottery]

Lol, so true! And right now, nothing dries out!

[@rachelgoodman1121]

[@hobblecreekpottery]

Hehehe

[@rfowler6039]

I was looking for something that I could quickly make to put on a Found Art Trail and I think these would be perfect. I could make a few small ones in no time and nestle them along the walking trail. Thank you so much for the idea and the informative video!

[@hobblecreekpottery]

What a great idea! Love it

[@bruceengland7488]

Trying to find if you have any pictures of finished gnomes. Would love to know how you glaze yours.

[@TheNene61]

Beautiful !!!!¨.... Where can I find these patterns ?!

[@katlady5000]

very cute. I got the tool so I'm going to try making gnomes and ghosts.

[@hobblecreekpottery]

You'll do amazing!

[@janekessler1986]

Love this....can you show a picture of the gnomes glazed? I would love to see how you did it. Thank you!

I did show the results in a kiln opening. You can check them our here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/rZjWd3t8rdWXhNE

[@roadmap5351]

Thank you for sharing! Do you have the template for the gnomes you can share?

[@hobblecreekpottery]

I don't have the template, but it's just a triangle with the bottom rounded a bit. You can make the template any size you want. The one I used in the video is 6x6x6.

[@maudbarbieux2284]

magnifique ❤

[@lindabriggs4821]

I love these guys, I’ve made 6 already; have you any other tutorials ? I’ve seen the ghosts and witches, I find your teaching so easy to understand. I would love to make other things you have made.😀

[@hobblecreekpottery]

Yes! And many more planned. Thank you so much.

Fabulous instruction and wonderful craft work. Congrates from me in Australia. What type of clay are you using? Xxx

[@hobblecreekpottery]

I used bmix for these. And thank you. ❤️

@mandyowen4892 Usually the not perfect ones are my favorite. They have more personality.

[@rhiandineen2744]

Hello, I’m trying to catch what you saying about the blue triangle material that you are using but I’m afraid I can’t hear what your saying, it sounds like crape form, can I plz ask what they are thank you.

[@martaluzardo8154]

Hermoso ! muchas gracias

[@nancymalensky4448]

Thank you so much for this video. Mine are drying now but I have a few questions. Do you fire first and then glaze and fire again? How do I keep the stamping to show through the glaze?

[@hobblecreekpottery]

Yes, bisque fire then glaze. I use celadon glazes that highlight texture. Celadons are great for these fellows.

[@margaretfrew6661]

I have made three gnomes and they are drying, this is the second time that I have viewed your post and I did see something that I should do easier. I am going to watch Tree trunk houses and then witches. These are for future events. The three that I made had taken me 3 hours. No doubt as I get into the rhythm of making witches, gnomes, and tree houses I will become a little faster. Do you say how you glaze these beauties and do you use "Duncan, Mayco, or another brand?

[@hobblecreekpottery]

Keep at it, they do get faster, lol. I use whatever glazes or underglazes, I have on hand. You can go crazy glazing them. 😀

[@zafirisammouliani]

Good morning . where can i find this wooden cone

[@hobblecreekpottery]

I have the link in the description. I got mine on Amazon.

[@bohemianflowerplays2657]

just out of curiosity would these techniques work with polymer clay; I have no way of firing regular clay.

[@hussicots]

You’re my newest favourite channel. I love your work and that pizzelle is a fantastic new addition to my tool kit! How can I tag you on stuff I make inspired by you?

[@hobblecreekpottery]

I'm instagram and Facebook under Hobble Creek Pottery. So thrilled you like the videos. It's new to me but I'm having fun with it.

[@jerib4514]

how do you keep the clay from sticking to the tool. I am going to use air dry clay

[@hobblecreekpottery]

I don't know about air dry clay. I know it's sticky, so maybe try corn starch? My stoneware doesn't stick to wood. Good luck.

[@donnaschlitz7881]

Where did you get the tea spout wooden tool?

[@hobblecreekpottery]

Amazon and there is a link in the description.

[@isabellrc]

Ooooo how I wish I had a kiln

[@dawne4me]

Do you ever use air dry clay for your projects? Are these gnomes then fired and painted?

[@hobblecreekpottery]

If you use air dry clay, built a support with tinfoil. These are stoneware and fired with glaze.

[@lindarosenberg1824]

The Amazon link doesn’t work. Please repost.

[@pamelabuss7506]

What kind of clay do you use?

[@hobblecreekpottery]

For these, I used Bmix.

[@alicekeiser9181]

What type of clay are you using. Hight fire or low?? What cone?

[@hobblecreekpottery]

Cone 5/6, so midfire.

[@alicekeiser9181]

@@hobblecreekpottery Oh ok, could these be done with low fire?

[@hobblecreekpottery]

@Alice Keiser Most certainly. I've even had people share with me their gnomes made with air dry clay.

[@alicekeiser9181]

@@hobblecreekpottery I have a kiln and want to try the clay you fire. Not sure which I will use though.I have taught ceramics for years. Got out of it but now I want to play again. Love your videos. Keep up the good work

[@leslieg8219]

I love your videos! Is there any way you would share your template for the gnomes by email?

[@hobblecreekpottery]

I'm not tech savvy enough to figure out how. I cut it out of craft foam, just making a pizza slice. Pretty easy. Cut a bunch of different slices from a big circle and see which one works best for you. Good luck.
