I take the day off, get inspired, spend 2 days realizing inspiration | Another VLOG

[@liverbird_55]

I love the dough bowl or sometimes called Trencher they were used in the 1800s and 1900s as a wooden vessel is best used to mix ingredients and give dough a warm place to rise when you cover the dough with a cloth, wooden bowls are prefarred as the heat generated fementation of the yeast and is retained in the wood giving the dough an even rise, Josh you should also make a wooden Dough Scraper/a Bakers Bench Knife to go with the Dough Bowls👍🏼

[@lisasnyder3036]

Watching you get inspired and just going all in and creating something amazing and beautiful are my favorite videos.

[@alisonscurr4395]

Love the bowl. Like Ashley, I thought they were used to prove the dough so I looked it up. 'A dough bowl, or sometimes called a trencher, is a wooden vessel used to mix bread dough. Dating back to colonial times, these bowls were found in every home, and were carved from a large piece of wood.' You learn something new every day.

[@sharlenen.z.9977]

When I baked some scones/biscuits one day, one unknowingly fell off the tray and remained in the bottom of the oven until I used it again, finally discovering it in a cloud of smoke. It had turned to charcoal but was so cool, in my opinion, that I sealed it well with clear nail polish and it sits proudly in my china cabinet.

[@JoshuaAlexander138]

Thats great. Haha.

[@barbaraann7173]

What a nice "day off!" Love hearing the names of the surrounding "towns" in the area, since I used to live in DV. Lovely house you visited in Nojack! ....Fun Fact: I laughed out loud at some antics, & actually found myself smiling as I was watching the video unfold. Rough few months since Sept/22 when hubby unexpectedly passed away..RIP.....your vids certainly lighten my spirits...for this, I'm thankful! Love the "dough bowl"...it looks lovely on your table! Best always...❤from BC

[@reneebekas8977]

Hugs to you @Barbara Ann 🤗 I also found that Josh ( and Jakota too) made it easier to smile again after losing my mom.

[@wendywobbles1]

Love your brain Josh and your ability to bring ideas to live, the bowl is beautiful

[@sarahl.944]

I love the bowl. All I can think of it catching fire, is Bob Ross and "Happy Little Accidents"

[@markwalford-groom]

the editing and narration while creeating the bowl i got a bit emotional watching the finished product appear ...the narration was mind blowing

[@Stephen_A.]

I'm sure Clint appreciated you wearing pants when you burned the bowl. 😁

[@lindaodellvt]

“I chose to wear pants.” Josh, you are a hoot.

[@jmd5145]

LOL! That was the quote I was coming here to repeat as well. Hilarious!!

[@maureenbrophy7852]

The French 💋. 😅😅

[@maureenbrophy7852]

I have a round one & one like yours ( similar). Use the boat shape for fruit Beautiful job Josh Great going out & see other people’s houses

[@maureenbrophy7852]

Fruit. Or if u have a lot of people Bread in mid table Ashley had good taste

[@maureenbrophy7852]

Round Bowles would be good for flour … dough bowel. Cheers🎉

[@joyceb5864]

The dough bread bowl was always an oblong wooden deep tray. The center was where the dough was made up, but flour from the ends was often thrown in if the dough was too watery. Types of these were used from 1600's to present day.

[@jubileebay]

Argh 😖 Whimsical being closed after taking the time and gas to get there! Great vlog, I learned about ICF, creating a dough bowl, and who knew what beauty torching poly would make?

[@dianedeahl5372]

I enjoy the glimpses of scenery as you are driving through the country, along with so many other entertaining elements of your vlogs, Josh. Thanks!

[@osmia]

[@kathleenl3279]

I can pretty much guarantee you will get lots of requests for the beautiful dough bowl you created i so admire you (& clint's) talent love this video

[@joyceb5864]

A dough bowl is called a bread bowl in the southern US. It was filled completely with flour and the center was where you made up the bread dough. When your dough was transferred to a baking pan, the bread tray was covered & set aside until next time. Occasionally, it had more flour added to it.

[@joellenmeek658]

I like the bowl before the char or maybe a little less char. I do really like it. We call them bread bowls.

[@susieebbert7114]

My thoughts exactly JoEllen Meek ... I think the char is too deep. A light kiss of a char would scream rustic yet not take away from the beauty of the wood grain. Though this bowl is nice,, It screams campfire log burnt. LOL,, sorry just my opinion folks, please go easy on me in the comments.

[@Cherylsgirls]

That dough bowl is gorgeous! 😍 And you can sell those for a fortune! Definitely something to add to your things to make.

[@hippydippy]

Charles Bukowski! I knew it as soon as it started. He was a tortured artist, but brilliant as many other artists in the past have been in the same condition. They create some of the most beautiful art in the world. It comes from deep within & it shows. And of course... The bowl is amazing!

[@krisr1704]

awesome bowl !!! awesome accident!!! that type of bowl could be used for anything ...for example ..charcuteries or cheese presentation bowl ,fruit bowl, banana bread bowl , bowl for keys or ur mail or a catch all bowl for ur entry way .fancy bathroom soaps bowl ,hold towels in the bathroom ...the ideas are endless for a bowl like that u could use it for floral arrangements even or for presentations of goods at stores ...u can never go wrong with a bowl like that ... i think u should add it to ur catalog for the unfinished kitchen goods it would fit beautifully in all that u have already...maybe even smaller and bigger sizes too ... try and find some free logs from trees people had cut down that dont want to use them for firewood and such ...really rustic when u can make them from actual trees from peoples yards ... just some ideas i thought i'd share with u b/c ur just one of those people who runs with ideas from others and u dont reject other peeps ideas . ur a good guy and everything inspires u and i enjoy throwing out ideas that help inspire great people to do great things !!!

[@Stephen_A.]

OMG. Clint made those bookcases that were in the house ? WOW !!! 🧡

[@dawncloninger1798]

I personally don't care for the char but I love the gouges and the inside lines...it is a beautiful piece Josh

[@justynejaniszewski4626]

Love the inspiration field trip with Clint and the creation it led you to try. Turned out great. Yes add them to Unfinished Kitchen catalog. Always nice to hang out in your workshop. Reminds me so much of my father and his brothers.

[@carriageofnoreturn.1881]

All your vlogs just go from strength to strength!

[@JoshuaAlexander138]

I appreciate that!

[@billsuddell9508]

Great Vlog today, enjoyed how the wood bowl came about, and the mistake that turned out interesting! lol

[@chopperguth]

Wooden bread/baguette trays were used to proof bread in a French bakeries. They are quite popular for decoration.... the long baguette ones look cool when filled with coffee beans and tea candles.

[@sandifigueroa6914]

Josh, your new interpretation of the “dough bowl” is SO amazing! It goes past the utilitarian and into an elegant art piece!

[@scrapgirl82]

Ashley was right! The dough bowls were used to rise your bread. Makes a nice loaf shape!

[@marlenebeck1739]

Dough bowls are used these days for table centrepieces to hold greenery, candles etc. or to hold fruits/vegetables (like squashes, oranges apples) that don’t require refrigeration and double as colourful decor.

[@Stephen_A.]

The doors are incredible. I didn't realize how large they were. 💚

[@Chr.U.Cas1622]

Dear Joshua Alexander. You said: "The burn marks adze to the character."😁 ;-) I totally agree. I'm very eagerly looking forward to watch you carving out a dough (dow?) bowl with an adze.

[@holymags2495]

In the Southwest we call them dough bowls, used in kitchens but most for decorative pieces, very popular.

[@patpeters6331]

Love the bowl. I would keep fresh fruit in it on the dining room table.

[@Habitnunangel]

If I won the lottery like those clients of Clints, I would build an amazing home too. Your vlogs are always awesome and a great way to start the day!

[@sheilafarley7120]

Full circle. Serendipitous for sure!!

[@vickilewis6730]

I absolutely loved hanging out with you and Clint. I love the relationship you two have and the genuine admiration and encouragement you give to each other. French kiss for the entire video!

[@leahr.2620]

Haha😉

[@andrealucas2238]

Incredible bowl! Beautiful House, awesome dogs! what more could you want?? I am inspired by your inspiration!

[@michaelcherry8952]

0:56 How do you know you're in a vehicle from rural Alberta? Cracked windshield! Cool bowl! I definitely want to see you do one with an adze. There will be a learning curve (cut towards your chum, not your thumb!😆) but I think it would be a great experiment to see which method you prefer.

[@jbart5260]

I have a few dough bowls I use for dried and silk floral arrangements. I do not know about Canada, here in the US they are usually quite pricey for an antigue handmade ones. I say check out Etsy to see if your time and materials will be cover by the going price. Yours is very beautiful and unique.

[@Lulubelle123]

Coffee, cinnamon bun and Josh - what more do I need on a Saturday afternoon 😊

[@ivydickson7596]

Sunday afternoon? Lol, Sunday here in New Zealand

[@leandabee]

Love the 'happy accident' bowl, it's really a stunning piece Josh 👌👏

[@debimynatt1741]

I love the dough bowl! It would be a great addition to the Unfinished Kitchen.

[@francelanoue1292]

It's nice to see artist's using the same space 👌 ! I enjoy seeing all the worl you all are making! Thank you for sharing! I love your bold they sale a lot of differents style made in Acacia but your's is unique ! 👍👍😊

[@darlenemcintyre9998]

I see the floor boards in the kitchen and getting excited for you.

[@deniseboldea1624]

That bowl goes nicely with the rest of the dining furniture. It's very versatile too. Nice Job.

[@JeanStAubin-nl9uo]

Nice bowl! I prefer the uncharred one myself. You are so fun to watch! Thanks Josh!

[@mariebrown5454]

Love the bowl. I believe that you put your dough after you make it to Prove / Rise before dividing into loaves or rolls and baking it. Marie

[@ankiking]

I wish I could show you my grandmothers bread dough bowl. Pretty similar and yes, they would set the dough and kneed it in the bowl. The soft edges were perfect for this. I have also heard of kids taking large dough bowls out in the show to use as a sled downhill. 😂

[@sharlenen.z.9977]

Clint was looking especially fine today!!

[@lynettecarlson2765]

You will have lots of people wanting one of those dough bowls. Came out extremely good. Wish I could do that myself! Great job Josh. You can find them at hobby Lobby. They are probably not hand made like yours those. I love it!!!

[@tami8027]

A nice surprise to see you this morning. I hope Ava’s leg is ok

[@junebamburg1704]

It’s a dough bowl and I love it. I have a French bread one it is about 100 years or older. I love all the wonderful things you make. ❤️🙏🏻⚜️

[@carolc4173]

Enjoyed the vlog. That house is amazing, nice to have the money to spend. I like the dough bowl mid-char. A little less than your final version - but you can't know how long is too long until you go there. You and Clint have artists' eyes, thanks for sharing. And also really enjoyed your poem & music choices.

[@leannemchugh4435]

Putting my order in now for a charred dough bowl!

[@barbielee7523]

" Go all the way..." , awesome !

[@marieannek6879]

I love this project - absolutely beautiful : )

[@Stephen_A.]

Poor Ava. I hope her leg will be Ok. 💖

[@farcuf]

a library ladder!

[@marlenekutcher938]

Yes dough bowls were used in Europe then in Canada when the settlers and homesteaders cleared the land to farm. It holds large quantities of mixed bread dough. It’s left to rise then baked in bread pans. Some Bowls were larger then these. Seen in the Ukrainian museum near Edmonton. ❤❤

[@cookiemomartist]

Ummmmmm, road trip.

[@marywhale8431]

I’m very interested in the carved bowl you just made. Beautiful.

[@destinysmith8659]

Love that bowl Josh! If you made those for sale I would 100% buy one!

[@Grams12]

Me too,what would u charge??

[@wimm0926]

Me too!!

[@ginajennings1664]

I really really really want or too. I only hope I can afford one. I might have to start saving now. But it’s only money and I’ve never seen a u-haul behind a hearse so I might as well spend my money now on something I really like and really want.

[@deddygavino7536]

Y'all bring so much joy to my life! Thank you! 💛

[@suzique5827]

Awesome bowl Josh. I like the char on the ends ❤

[@antidotetochaoschats]

The dough bowl is rad. Ashley was right, dough bowl means where you rest the dough so it can rise. Happy accidents and French kiss!

[@kimfrommn7162]

Thanks for another Super Great Video!!! You two are the Cutest couple!!! 🤗♥️🙏🏼 forgot to tell you which bowl I liked best!! I like both of them very much, but the char one would probably be the one I picked at the end!! 🤓

[@ProjectDiscovery444]

Watching you making is so inspirational...thank you for that!

[@colleenrainha3607]

I love the bowl. I was thinking you should burn the ends and next scene you are burning the ends. I would definitely purchased a bowl like that.. keep up sharing and creating ❤️👍

[@caroldunham1665]

That beautiful dough bowl looks great on your table. Looks so good with the burnt part. Another great video Josh, you are so talented.

[@kathleenkretai5330]

Had to laugh when you were talking about the gum thing 🤣 it reminded me of a time when I was at the playground with my kids and my 3yr old daughter was chewing a big wad of recycled gum she had picked up out of the sand 😳

[@ToyotaFJOntario]

“I chose to wear pants” 🤣🤣🤣❤️

[@karenmilligan5597]

I like your dough bowl, Ashley, and Josh. I would use it as a fruit bowl because I'm not kneading any dough.😁 💚🤍🖤🩶💚

[@JainMonroe]

In Finland, these are called dough trought, they are often about 1.5-2 meters long and about 30-50 cm in diameter, they are often made from split logs that are carved with an ax. of course there were also smaller ones, in these they really made doughs that were kneaded entirely by hand.

[@eternaldarkness6]

Awww doggo & new vlog!!

[@melissabaanders2751]

Aaww i liked it better unburned, but that cool ripply effect on the inside is primo

[@lois4329]

Just super nice all around! 😊

[@carolynhurnacki8866]

Beautiful work!

[@barbaraschmidt5062]

Dough bowls where used to mix the bread dough in the very early days. Some people use them for candles or whatever now. Great job on the bowl. Hope you are doing better and Ava’s leg is better also.

[@Madijo70]

💜 Go all the way!

[@barbarairving1248]

Very entertaining vlog as usual. Thank you. French kiss.😂

[@liverbird_55]

Josh you said french kiss again💋👅🤔instead of Chefs kiss👌🏼😆🤣😂

[@JoshuaAlexander138]

Right. On purpose. Hence the "inside joke" comment. Lol

[@leahr.2620]

The bread Dough was mixed in the bowl and then covers with a towel to rise. I actually had to look it up😉

[@leahr.2620]

I like the dough bowl, but if I was going to use it in my kitchen i would probably want it without the char, I make my own bread and wouldn't want any black coming off in my dough. French 💋

[@paivijaaska9153]

The bowl looks AWESOME !!!

[@carolaussie87]

Josh, check out (Early American. Baking an Amazing Cherry pie from 1808). The dish is used at the beginning. Very useful even today for making bread. Love your imagination to be able to work out an easier way to make products you make.

[@scrapgirl82]

Oh man, I hate to tell you this, but there is a Whimsical Vintage Creations shop in Stony Plain! Dough bowls are $145.

[@scrapgirl82]

Also, when you're in St. Albert, you can see some other styles of them at Simone & Ivy.

[@orphayoder9085]

Before burning for me 🤔It’s so nice !!!

[@Nates38487]

Hi Josh its interesting yesterday i was watching a video of this guy making those Bowl from cut trees and i thought of you making them to sell too those bowls you can use it in different ways for making the dough, for washing, for us as a fruit bowl etc.. they are called in Spanish "BATEAS" in case youll like to search the you tube channel this one guy cures the bowls with vegetable Lard and then he lets it in the sun for a day or 2 and then adds more if the wood is to dry and i think he torches them too, those bowls have been used for years n years my family in Mexico had many of those bowls

[@jimjackson5544]

Oh man, I was thinking that 'Mick' was Jakota and was getting ready to comment that he hasn't been missing any meals lately, then you pointed out it was someone else!!! 😂😂😂

[@viviannefraser5974]

Design as you go! Great idea.

[@cindybagley4925]

[@jeanadamsick9854]

[@cattyler461]

You remind me of my brother. He had a shop and was always making cool stuff. He called it his "Hobby Haven". We are a family of artists with different talents, loving to work with our hands.🎨🖌🛠🪚

[@teresamenicucci1658]

I think it would make a cool table top fruit bowl also.

[@dianedeahl5372]

Serendipity is the bonus when you follow your inspiration. Love it!

[@vickilewis6730]

That's awesome! Can I quote you?

[@dianedeahl5372]

Sure, Vicki!

[@reneebekas8977]

A dough bowl, or sometimes called a trencher, is a wooden vessel used to mix bread dough. Dating back to colonial times, these bowls were found in every home, and were carved from a large piece of wood.

[@outoftheburrough]

That could also make a really cool sink

[@Stephen_A.]

The char looks excellent. 💙

Hi Clint ! 💙

[@Chef-Really5365]

Thanks for sharing us along I love going here there and everywhere. And my favorite is Shop Ship Shape organizer or cleaner day
