Pottery Mould 82: What is inside this Vintage Ceramic Plaster Mould?

[@ShelbySherritt]

For those asking the song is Train Ride by Alex Kehm. I use Epidemic Sounds for all my music on KZbin as they are licensed for KZbin video use

[@bunburry]

I am actually on a train ride. In Denmark. Coincedence? I think not.

[@laceym1226]

Thank you! This is such a lovely song 💖

[@kezdmith3741]

You have inspired my 6 year old daughter so much in her journey with art, every Saturday morning she will hop into bed with me and ask to watch the new shelby video. thank you x

[@gypsydanae]

I'm 55 and I feel the same: oh a new video? SQUEE!!!! .......... High five to your daughter

[@heatherhamerphotog]

How funny, my 6-year-old does the same thing every Saturday morning! My husband took our kids on a trip this week so I’m home alone and just watched this video on my own and was missing my little buddy. Can’t wait to show her this one. She will love it.

[@ciaragalvin]

My daughter also loves these. She just asked can we go to "that girls" house and help her make squirrels next time 😂

[@Itihlwen]

I love the slower pace of this video and watching you paint in real time! Don't ever think this is repetitive. Your viewers watch dozens, if not hundreds of other videos inbetween yours and it's never a mistake to show your process each time. Looking forward to next week!

[@belindawallace5203]

Love the squirrels, I like the unglazed version too, the only thing I would do differently would be to paint some shiny glaze onto the eyes. I did it once on a hare I made in pottery class and I love the effect.

[@Feraloidies]

Oh that sounds really interesting!

[@lauraschuster8809]

I honestly prefer the real time painting It's so calming Your videos not being as fastpaced is very refreshing

[@paulinegrant4081]

I agree, the antiquing really suits these little squirrels, and the darker shades look good on this mould. Love seeing them all gathered together at the end of the vlog, like an enormous squirrel family. 🐿🐿🐿

[@Feraloidies]

They're a happy crowd

[@IdrilSilmarien]

Or a squirrel army! 😁

[@meg2831]

It always impressed me when you don't sketch and you go right into paint. I could never do that!

[@MissMeganBeckett]

I like the squirrels, and I like how you draw such fine details, you are also including a lot of my favourite things on the drawing, books tea, plants I like the furry details in the texture of the mold. They turned out so beautiful

[@emilyflavell1658]

I've gotta say, antiquing usually isn't my favourite, but on these little guys it's so effective! It really makes their fur pop and adds a bit more of a dark academia vibe. The un antiqued ones are still really gorgeous though, they're giving me cottagecore

[@jpendowski7503]

As usual you blow me away with creative accents on what could have been a straightforward piece. The glaze experiment was successful as each one has a unique look. It was fun to see you real time illustrate the squirrels. Thanks for a fun end of the week treat. Not going to say my favorite as each one has a special quality to it.

[@maramakesjournals2319]

OMG too cute: a group of squirrels is called a scurry. The painting is unique; something different for you. The style I like best is antiqued with low sheen. They are as cute as they can be! See you next week.

[@samanthadean1083]

These are just too cute!!! 😍

[@bumblefish892]

Hearing you say "hello everyone" automatically brings a smile to my face ❤️ your videos are such a comfort

[@erinroberts4378]

This was one of my all-time favorites! Love the army of them all at the end. What a creative take on this one! ❤️❤️

[@brookgarrett8632]

I love the simplicity of this video style and these darling squirrels. The motifs you picked just go perfectly with them. I do miss your colors though 😍

[@janetsutherland7649]

I find the slower pace showing your painting very relaxing. 🐿 💜

[@scrappingrrl]

I love Friday's when I get the latest episode of my favourite KZbin series! You didn't disappoint. They are adorable. Loved being able to see the process in "real time".

[@iakovellis3243]

Super nice to see the process without it being sped up. My chihuahua is obsessed with watching you paint!

[@sparklymadamjojo]

Aww Shelby! My Friday happiness shot delivered! ♥️🐿️

[@zanij3]

I love little critters 😍 I also like that you always do your own designs instead of "what is expected". Greetings from South Africa 🌍

[@colleenity]

Another mould from my home town!! I really want to do some research on that mould company. If you're curious, the city is abbreviated. It's Columbus, ohio, USA. And the mould company is named for the river that goes through the city. Also it would be fun to make a black and white squirrel set because those are natural squirrels but a little funky! 🐿🐿

[@heatherkaye8653]

I also love seeing molds from my home (Portland, Oregon). It makes super excited that they have lasted for so many years and so many miles to make it all the way to Shelby!

[@rochellecollier9515]

I really like the one coat low sheen too!! These are so cute! I Love squirrels!!😍🐿 I can totally imagine them hidden among some house plants or peeking out on my books shelf 😍💗

[@xmildbillx]

I'm so glad this is the second thing I woke up to today. Your voice and everything was so comforting for some reason after hearing the news in America this morning.

[@juliaaahtola7703]

I love the light glazed ones so much AAA adorable

[@ajsxd8244]

What a great combination of narration and cinematography/music.

[@00juls00]

I saw you paint the envelope and my first thought was that you were making him into a little mailman! haha How cute would a little squirrel with a job be? He could have a sachel and letters spilling out. haha Regardless, they're so cute as is!

[@Tara-jy9ff]

I thought that too! It would be so cute if they each had a different job

[@MissDraiha]

@@Tara-jy9ff omg I love that idea so much

[@echognomecal6742]

Squirrels as mail carriers just seems so right.

[@helenhodge-croom9635]

These were cute! The antique and low gloss did make it seem like real fur!

[@cherylburkitt9722]

Ohhhh...this was so relaxing..I loved the process of the squirrels...I think they all look nice..

[@kristinwolke5354]

These squirrels are the cutest! I love watching your videos, you inspire me to keep creating in my own styles and media.

[@LillieSilly21]

These are literally my favorite aesthetic I would have never thought it would work this well on little squirrel figures but it turned out amazing 😍

[@rebeccat8061]

I thought you had painted ONE squirrel so delicately and I was impressed. Painting all those squirrels must have been crazy tedious! You’re a trooper for that. I like the no-antique glazed ones the best but I can’t tell the difference between the 3 sheen levels.

[@thatssewlexie5705]

Absolutely adorable Shelby! And yes that song was perfect

[@johughes2331]

These are adorable and it’s weird not to see bright flowers! Xx

[@asiawilk]

these are sooo adorable! I can't imagine anything else painted on them, it just fits so perfectly!

[@Fluffymonkeyem]

This mold is super cute! I love the little icons you painted on them. They'd make cute little book ends!

[@annmackenzie5253]

So sweet ❤ I love the final look of both matte and the shiny .

[@noodle_723]

Honestly these little squirrels are one of my favorite molds you've done, and that's crazy since there are so many good molds. They are so cute, would be perfect for a little side table décor or on the bookshelf like you mentioned. :)

[@carrolwedgewood3991]

I also liked the one coat of low sheen! They were all very cute!

[@Nanenna]

Very cute! I like the antiquing, always a fan of using it to bring out all the effort put into carving the mold (or the original, however they went about it). And for something dark academia adding age to it just works, you know? They're all very sweet and I love them.

[@ZestyAqua]

Those squirrel pals are sweet! I think you did a great job. They are unique and interesting.

[@dawnk6910]

All of them are so sweet! Even experimenting has worked in making them look like a family/collectable set...love love the motifs as well.....and I was just waiting for you to drop one in the glaze haha! Thankyou once again shelby, you worked your magic

[@mouse589c5]

I really enjoyed this week's vibe. Very zen.

[@laurenjodoin32]

These are super adorable! As always you take a simple mold and create a beautiful piece.

[@belug23]

I have a suggestion for the mould 100, using this style of random things painted on these, but instead of using random items you could represent the 99 previous moulds onto the output of the 100th one! I'm not certain how pretty and great the result would be, but it would mark that reveal. Also, this could be an editing nightmare, but cutting the painting with a picture of the piece you're representing could look like a walk through the memory lane of all those reveals. P.S. I really liked the real time painting with the music, it put me back to why I started watching your videos, it was a way to calm my mind and relax in a time of my life where everything was going wrong. In the last few episodes I found myself watching the reveal, skipping the painting (or doing something else while it was rolling) and going to the end to see the kiln opening and the last thoughts about the results. This format forced me to sit back, relax and enjoy the calmness of your art. P.P.S When the P.S. is bigger than the main text, I wonder which one should be the main text? And since I believe both are as important to read, I don't have the answer. At least I'm actively trying to not make the P.P.S bigger than the others.

[@jaimejohnesee]

This series always puts me in a good mood. Thank you for all the work you put in to deliver us such good content and beautiful art. 💙

[@setphaser]

I love watching a slow video, I used to watch wood workers on lathes, but then KZbin’s ads took over so, if you are willing, long meditative videos are good with me!

[@DawnDavidson]

Squirrels!! They are my “totem/spirit” animal, and I’ve been collecting them for 30 years or so. :) Love your take on them, Shelby!

[@laurahartman9170]

In love with these little guys! Also think I really like the low sheen

[@FossilOld]

Love the piece and the slow pace of the video. It is incredibly relaxing to watch you work in real time

[@ShelbySherritt]

Thank you very much!

[@LillieSilly21]

I really liked them all but my personal favorites were the antiqued ones with no glaze or antiqued with one coat of low sheen. I thought the single coat of low sheen was just shiny and vibrant enough without being overly glossy. Thank you for posting this amazing content and if you see this I hope you have a spectacular day.

[@CuppaTime]

Love watching your process either way. I was thinking today watching you work, that the way I learnt from my Grandmother was not just from her instruction but also just watching her process for which ever craft she was doing from drawing, sewing, crochet to leather carving etc. Thanks Shelby!

[@sheenatalks8529]

I'm really LOVING the real-time paining!! Thank you for sharing your process and art with us! Love your videos each week, they're so soothing and I look forward to Friday mornings when I get to see them 💖

[@KaylaCakes87]

I like all the glaze experiments. They all turned out different but still cute!

[@ritahodges254]

This is inspired me to that I want to get my college to do a section on a port ceramics instead of just hand built ceramics I like both yours just looks like it's so much fun because you're differences or your creativity comes out in the design and that is just so much fun

[@ShelbySherritt]

This is why I like them! I love all forms of pottery. I only really show the slipcasting because that's where my content is at the moment but, I love it for that very reason. You can interpret the one piece in so many different ways!

[@Seidenraupe77]

They look so alive! So beautiful! 💚🌳🌰

[@LillieSilly21]

First video of yours I caught on the day it's posted. Absolutely love your art and your immaculate vibes ❤️

[@EDM9121]

They are so sweet!! Love it. The difference in glazes was interesting. Thanks for sharing.

[@SuesOriginals]

Those squirrels are so cute! It occurred to me that a Bob Ross squirrel would be really cute and kinda funky. Your painting to music has an AMSR sort of feel to it and Bob Ross was ASMR before it was a thing. Plus those squirrels all HS friends!

[@tanyahouston5635]

Those are cute! I am with you on the one coat, less shiny. 🐿

[@JoDidntHearYou]

I loved watching the painting process this time. Thank you for continuing this series; it’s been such a delight to tune in each week. I’ve also enjoyed binging the rest of them ☺️

[@Eliza-xd5ck]

Your mushroom apron is incredible

[@leesescraftycreations6719]

Love the antiquing without glaze. Personally I prefer without little motifs but they look good for those who like that kind of look. Tfs. Take care

[@princesskaguya2000]

I love this series so much. It's so relaxing and wholesome. I forgot how much I enjoy ceramics and am looking forward to getting back into a local studio.

[@leannwhite620]

Those are so cute! My first thought was salt and pepper shakers. With the light and dark glazes, no need for S or P markings. I was hoping for flower covered squirrels. When you've gone through the entire series of molds, I think you could redo it and take ideas for glazing. Enjoying all of your videos and don't want them to end.

[@debraking7412]

I love the squirrels, they look fab x

[@dmmomma]

Yes, please! This was great. I hope you had fun as much as I enjoyed watching. Beautiful asthetic. They all work and will look amazing on any shelf!

[@Uncle_Steve71]

They are just adorable. 🐿

[@RykerJones28]

Love these squirrels! They're on of my favourite animals 😍

[@suuskje]

Really enjoyed seeing you paint in real time. The antiqued one coat of low sheen are my favourite!

[@ShelbySherritt]

Mine too!

[@00Mandy00]

I hope you make one Sandy, someday. It was always fun when they’d have a quick shot of her being a real squirrel.

[@jujujensen]

My thought was they would be perfect on a desk or bookshelf. These are wonderful.

[@SwayTree]

Last Saturday was the first time I was painting pottery. In my city there is a place where they prepare for you different things out of clay and they fire it. Then you chose what you like and paint it using colorful glaze. After that they fire it for you and you come to pick it up. I can't wait! Although I really had no idea how time consuming it is. One flower pot took my 5 hours! Maybe because you essentially paint everything three times 😂

[@pearltoyne9608]

Loved everything about this video, they came out so cute, and the real time painting was lovely

[@ShelbySherritt]

Thank you so much 😀

[@DianeGraft]

I do really like the antiquing, with the level of detail on this mold it really lets you see it. If I were working with that mold, I'd paint the squirrel naturalistically, but then do something creative with what he's holding. A little sculpting on that part when the clay is still soft, and it could be anything! A bouncy ball, an Easter egg, a cupcake,, a pearl, a planet, anything that a squirrel would not logically be holding.

[@melindarose2904]

Very sweet. I like the high sheen best with texure

[@gabriellevazquez6618]

I really love this mould! I think I like the antique with the one coat of low sheen glaze the best. But I also like the no glaze one too!

[@mar1na1993]

I love all the squirrels together looking up at the camera!!

[@fleurdow793]

LOVE em... absolutely gorgeous!

[@msprincesss115]

they have such cute lil smiles..

[@menopausalbarbie7467]

Thanks for another delightful video! 💜💜💜

[@alexandriamount3069]

Such cute little friends!

[@maythedog7586]

Love all of your videos! The antiqued ones look soooooooo good !

[@jackier4698]

Hands up!!! Who wants to sit at Shelbys table and paint cute stuff with her??? It would be lovely 🥰

[@mary-ruthflores4107]

I agree, I like the one coat of low

[@d4n3n4d]

I love the way you say squirrels. 🐿

[@bethcaselman7952]

That looked really cool the squirrels turned out cute

[@StephSilverMoon]

Oh my god this was yummy fav video so far! Such an amazing chill vibe and the squirrels were so damn cute! I loved the ascetic you chose!

[@tamaraatkins5767]

I'm shocked! I actually like the unglazed the best, with the antiquing of course lol. I like the low sheen 1 coat with out the antiquing second best. I'm so surprised! also I wasn't sure I was going to love all the little pictures randomly painted on them, but they turned out so cute!

[@nros1735]

Loved the vibe and songs you used in this video.

[@heatherkaye8653]

These are lovely but I think they would look super cool in an ombre space theme!

[@andreageorge1404]

They are lovely.

[@nikkiewhite476]

I like the lighter brown antiquing with the single layer of the low sheen of the the low sceen

[@SigneofHorses]

As much as I love muted colours (and I adore the unglazed non antique one) I do feel you could have gone to town with bright coloured squirrels. A pink squirrel? Why not? Haha. The video is beautiful with the slow take your time clips and music! I love how you take inspiration from your viewers.

[@bgirlsquirrel]

Awww sweet little squirrels!! 🐿️🐿️

[@aprildavis5097]

ADORABLE! I love them!

[@nariu7times328]

These are so CUTE.

[@SummerAlleriaWindrunner]

Loved the editing this week 💖💖

[@valeriebigley8759]

Love the squirrels❤

[@meg2831]

So freaking cute! I love them!

[@janewood8665]

Oh I have this mold, I haven’t used it yet. They’re so cute!
