Making Mountain Containers!

[@kbee1735]

Sooo inspiring… as always!!! Thanks for sharing your awesome ideas!!

[@lauriegagnon2614]

Wonderful. So many possibilities for this shape. Any yes, I talk to myself all the time.

[@Miraclecultart]

I also talk to myself a lot, it helps me regulate my thoughts.

You are recovering from major surgery. Don;t overdo things. Im sure people are happy to wait for your videos because they are super great. Those mpuntais could be turned into salt and pepper post!! Just put a base on them!!

[@hobblecreekpottery]

Great idea!

This channel has quickly become my favourite KZbin Channel. You have a great way of presenting your clay projects and a really interesting content. I have made three of your round fairy houses so far (but in pinch pots as I am just a beginner and cant throw round forms on the wheel) and one of your fairy tree trunks. Thanks so much I know you say show you but I'm not on other social media platforms, but rest assured you are a great teacher they have come out so well. Thanks again

[@hobblecreekpottery]

Ah, thank you! So glad you like the videos and finding them helpful.

I have been using the triangle container for the last 7 years for my healing jars. After numerous attempts using the wheel and cutting out triangle shapes, I discovered the absolutely fastest and least problematical way was to make my cylinder, then gently press into the triangle shape. Saves time and my temper! Keep in mind, I'm not making an actual container for objects, as my healing jar uses slips of paper, which are burned to ashes, so the opening is higher at the top and much smaller. The mountains are beautiful and your love of the mountains definitely shows through.

[@hobblecreekpottery]

Great idea!

So good to see you back, hoping you're knees are getting stronger everyday!!! Love the mountains myself, these are going to be so cute - can't wait to see how you glaze them out!!!

[@misslianaaaa]

These mountains are absolutely beautiful! I will definitely have a go at making one to stash choccies or other goodies in! Thank you for your videos! You're so talented and i can really relate to lots of things you have said 🥰

Hi from deep in the snowy Sierras of Nevada. Thoroughly enjoyed the MTN project. Love the snowy covered mtns, love your work. Thanks for sharing 💞

[@hobblecreekpottery]

Stay safe! Love the Sierras and Tahoe, but worried about all that snow you guys are dealing with.

[@mandyowen4892]

Oh I loved that it looked gorgeous when you finished.

[@jackiemorrison2661]

You are so much like me... you make me smile.. thanks for making great videos!

[@littleflower.business]

You can use corn starch to stop the decals from smudging

[@heididerksen8227]

Another amazing video truly beautiful

[@carolynpollack1083]

Hi. What can I say! Love these. I'd probably stuff up the lid, but I'd give it a go. You mentioned wheel throwing - not my finest pottery moments. I'll have to practice more, but I love the creativity of hand building my pieces. If I make one of these, I'll show you the end product.

[@sylviacortes3251]

Su imaginación no tiene límites ,me encanta sus videos 👏👏👏👏🥰👍

[@thatoldbiddy2]

Hershey kisses would really be cute in that.

[@hobblecreekpottery]

Yes, they would!

[@crystallarson5872]

Loved watching you do this project! Definatey inspiring and now I want to do this project for our senior center group of hand builders. I did want to ask where you got your stamp for the bottom from.

[@hobblecreekpottery]

My stamp was printed by Justin Makery from a 3D printer using my logo. This would be a fun project at a senior center!

[@barbarablanclovedthis.very3875]

I want to buy one of those please.

[@bmorlan35able]

Hello! these are brilliant! :) I have been following you for about a month now... but I didn't know you are from Alaska... I grew up in Alaska! :) I miss it a lot (And the snow! LOL I now live in Missouri)

[@hobblecreekpottery]

What part did you grow up in? Yes, once Alaska is in your blood, longing to be back there never leaves.

[@bmorlan35able]

@@hobblecreekpottery when we first got there wheen I was a baby we lived in Seward but then moved to Anchorage :) I remember digging in the yard and played with the most fantastic clay! I wish I had it now! Lol

[@hobblecreekpottery]

@Brad Morlan My grandparents lived in Seward for years before teaching in the Bush. I grew up in Fairbanks and also have family in Soldotna. Such a beautiful place!

[@Annie-wu7kc]

Brilliant idea Im always hiding chocolates...hehe he, food way of stashing them 'under cover' Won't you plse share your templates?

[@hobblecreekpottery]

There really is no template. I made it on the video, so hopefully, it's easy to follow along and make your own pattern.

[@rokoroo]

Thanks for another fun design! I have a quick question, I understand drawing the cut line on with the pin tool first, but why after that do you trace it with the wood tool before actually cutting it?

[@hobblecreekpottery]

I drew that second line with the original mountains, so muscle memory, from all the ones I made before, but you really don't need too.

[@LaurieParkhurst]

And…when you glaze you can use maybe a little lite flux to run in the faceted part, under the edge of lid area… you know what I mean? Not above so it doesn’t seal it shut..

[@Kristian_theDane82]

I talk to my self to, sometimes..😂 so i guess i'm a genius 😅

[@hobblecreekpottery]

Lol, yes you are!

[@sharonpieri1896]

I do more mumbling to myself than talking...lol
