love this video and hearing your thoughts on life as an artist! very calming and refreshing :)
thanks so much! glad you enjoyed it 😌
I love this idea of a birthday artist date :) It looks like a delightful day & I love the way you filmed it! That dinner looked delicious!
thanks so much! i'm so glad i did it and now i want to make it a regular thing 😌
Oh Jamie I feel the same way about being in my house! During the cold months, I live in Iowa, I work in my kitchen island. And it’s so hard when I can’t get away to do my work and not be in the middle of every day life sometimes. I LOVE THE TERM LIFESTYLE POTTER!!❤. Oh my gosh I was putting off cleaning my clay area and literally spent 2 months glazing pots I made over the summer instead of cleaning my area!! It was ridiculous!! I saw the space every day all day and kept putting it off and it literally took 20 minutes to clean!!! How ridiculous but I felt almost paralyzed. Now I’m trying to put things away right when I’m done so it doesn’t get so bad but sometimes I’m soo tired and in pain when I come to the end. But I don’t want it to get to that point again so I’m trying. I love that you took your watercolor to the shop!!! I’ve been making clay canvases lately and was wondering what kinds of artsy things I can do on them with things other than glazes!! With watercolor make sure you use good watercolor paper!! It makes a HUGE difference!! Your piece turned out amazingly well!! When you change things I think we all find that some things work and some don’t so keep in mind that some things you may keep and some you won’t. And whatever you decide is absolutely fine.
lifestyle potter for the win! haha. I totally agree that cleaning up can also clean up so much brain space too! crazy how much our environment effects us! change is helpful, it's easy to just keep doing the same things, even though a small switch could help so much more! so cheers to you for trying!!
Finished 2nd half of video. I hope shop update in March goes well! Yeah I got off off ig and tiktok because it was too stressful, so I can only imagine as a business owner.
thanks so much! hoping so too. Yes, it's a whole other thing that I just didn't want sucking my time right now!
Yesss! Quality over quality always wins‼️ love that you set your own rules for your journey. That lane can widen when you want it to. 😀🙌
thanks!! yes you're so right that lane can change when i want it too! ☺️
You should totally do a small teaching segment on throwing during one of your videos!
great idea! I'm always nervous to teach because I'm still very much learning myself haha
I love the idea of the separating divider. It may refresh things for you.
thanks! I'm hoping the same!
hiii, I just discovered your channel and first of all, happy birthday!! and I loved itt, from now on I’m always going to be here😍
hi! thank you so much! glad you enjoyed and thanks for being here ☺️
so much love for you!! you deserve all the good days 🫶
same same same!! 🥹 thank you!
Happy Birthday!
thank you!!
Love love your videos, thank you for sharing 🌱
thanks so much!! 🫶🏾
Happy Birthday, Jamie!!! 🥳
thanks a lot!!
Le Pens are wonderful
yes! I use them daily!
For some reason I thought you were like at least a decade younger than me when it turns out you're only a couple of years younger! Hello fellow millennial and Happy Birthday!
hahah, that's not the first time I've heard that. thank you for the birthday wishes!!
Happy Birthday Jamie. You are so lucky to have. I wanted those converse sneakers but they were sold out. I’m glad you had a great day.
thank you so much! i got them at nordstrom rack in sale if that helps! ☺️
Jamie I looove your videos, keep up the good work ...and happy birthday 😊
thank youuuu!! 💛🥲
Happy Birthday!! 🎂🍷🎉
thank you! 🥰🫶🏾
Happy birthday, Jamie. 🤍
thank you! 🫶🏾
Happy Birthday! Thanks for sharing it with us - I feel like I got an early birthday present too with the visual treat of all those beautiful art supply colours ❤️
thank you, glad you enjoyed it! the colors are so satisfying to look at !
Happy Birthday dear Jamie!!! What a fantastic time ❤🎉
thanks so much! 🥰
This brown sweatshirt looks beautiful on you! Is that weird to say??
not weird!! thank youuuuuuu 🥲
Awww, so glad you had an enjoyable birthday. A day full of simple pleasures and lots of love from family and friends is a wonderful way to celebrate yourself!
thanks so much! lovely start to a new year 😌
Hi Jamie, about being online you shoipd watch "art by louise videos" I loooove your aesthetic. Have you thought about making a subscription with each month one or 2 items like a dish and a pendant a mug and a spoon? I am saying this because I own a small stationery shop and it took off with subscriptions. They will make your income more steady and will increase your customer base.😊 I hope you have a nice 2025!
hey!! i did have a quarterly subscription which was great! it just became too much with all the other avenues i was selling in, so i decided to step away from it this year and get back to the basics and add it in when i feel more settled again! love that that’s been working for you and your biz, it really is such a nice way to consistently get income and get your work out there!
I love a slow start to the year Jamie, It also gives me the adequate time to collect my thoughts.
totally agree bill! need a minute to collect myself ☺️
You/your channel have such cozy and sunny energy!!
aw thanks! means a lot 🥰
You have such a calm essence - hope nothing but the best 🫶
thanks so much. ☺️ wishing you the same!
“It’s not even spring yet” will be my mindset for the rest of the season. It’s also a perk of celebrating Lao New Year in April. January is too soon and too cold to think.
love this and toooootally agree! April makes so much more sense!
I agree with you about the bears hibernating 😂
haha if they’re still sleeping i want to, too lol🥲
26:18 how you spoke about saying no to things more and yes to yourself more in regards to ceramics has been my moto going into this year for my personal life. I felt so known hearing you say that. ❤
loving this for you🥲! definitely want to adopt the same mindset for my personal life too. 💛
I make functional pottery that people ask for. Needing to plan for spring shows means I will have enough to meet demand and not be in a rush three weeks before a show. I plan for 5 making days and two rest days every week to keep on track. Journal keeping helps a lot.
sounds like you’ve got a good system in place! i typically do the same. i’m taking this longer break after a busy holiday, since i’m not doing any spring markets so i’m more connected with what i make. 😌 wishing you all the best on your shows!
I just got my day planner pages, which I use to mostly journal in, and sat down Friday and changed them all out and organized the ones from the past 6 years!! I also started a pottery journal! I’m going to try and keep track of the hat I do pottery wise for the entire year. I’ve never been able to track how many things I’ve made so that is one of my goals!❤ I can’t believe how much your green drink matched your green tray! Lol. I’m with you on being a half extrovert half introvert! This next year I am going to focus on extruding!! Handbuilding everything is soo hard sometimes and I got this 5” extruder a year 1/2 ago called Big Blue and I haven’t even tried it!!! I’m so afraid of this dang thing it’s ridiculous! But I know it’s going to help with making more things a bit faster so I’m just going to have to dive in. So this winter I’ve been trying to watch as many videos on extruding and going on Pinterest etc to find things I really want to try and make. What is the Asana? I see you’re using your iPad pencil! I got mine out yesterday and tried charging it and it would NOT charge no matter what! I tried using the cord and my iPad. Ugg. Please know that you do not have to plan your entire life at any certain time! I celebrate the new year in spring when the real new year actually starts when everything comes back as well and Jan because that’s when a lot of people do things like tha! Don’t push yourself if you don’t feel like it hun! Do it at your own pace and when you feel like it. It will come to you!! I started printing pictures off every month becasue I was going sooo long without doing it and it was so hard to do when you have so many months of pics and not having done it for so long. Anyway I’m so glad you shared this with us! ❤❤❤
thank you! glad you’ve made some progress setting some goals! Asana is a project management app, it’s how track and plan all my ceramic stuff. definitely soaking up this slow start and taking a cue from nature and matching its pace. 😌
January is perfect for a well deserved rest !!!! Enjoy yourself 🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀
thank you!!! 💛🫶🏾☀️
anybody else not quite ready to plan everything for the year yet?! i tried and it just wasn't working which i think means i just need some more chill time. i'm thankfully able to grant myself some rest in the next couple of weeks before i fully get back into the swing of making. i hope your new year is off to a cozy start! ✨ and as always thanks for watching!
I never even attempt until spring. It’s hard for me otherwise.
Your business, your rules. It's a new calendar year, but as you said, nature is hibernating. Working with the seasons might be a better fit. Intuitively we know what feels right. Depending on where you live in the world, if it's dark outside when you get up and dark outside after work hours, that feels pretty bleak and not motivating in the least. This could be a good time to reflect, take in inspiration from other hobbies and interests.
100%. I like to work with the seasons too. It feels like lunar new year works so much better for that!
yess!!
yes, it’s been a lovely time to reflect and just enjoy the things i enjoy! thanks so much☀️
I have a question 😊 what is your part time job? Thanks for sharing and make really beautifull stuff! Happy new year 🎉❤
thank you! happy new year!! i’m a barista a couple days a week ☕️🙂
Yes to saying “no!” more! :) Looking forward to seeing what you make in the new year.
thank you!! same here - looking forward to a fresh start 🫶🏾✨
That fragile sticker is adorable
Excited to see the new collection! Did you figure out what happened with that cursed glaze?
I did not figure it out!! but will be taking a break from that one for a bit 😅
Wishing you all the best for the new year
thank you!! same to you 😌
I'm so happy that the pop up went well and I'm glad the surgery has improved your health 🙏
You are so cute and beautiful! I love the way you make your vídeos and also the way you aproach your art !!! Happy 2025!!!!!
ahh thank you so much!! means a lot 🥲 happy 2025 to you too!!!
Oh Jamie I’m so sorry you only sold one thing. When I first started that happened to me and I was devastated but I really found that I was at the wrong types of markets. I LOOVE that you did so well in your last pop up!! May I ask where you did your pop up? Do you know the people who own the business you were infront of? I so agree with you on the vastness of things you can do with pottery. All of the amazing things you can make as well as the enormous amount of techniques you can do to the pot. Oh honey I’m so glad you had the surgery you needed!! Omg when you were talking about taking care of yourself because you feel so good is just amazing!! I’m doing the same but because I’ve been sick for sooo long!! I’m feeling better and absolutely HAVE TO get moving and get into shape. I didn’t know you were married. Lol. I don’t think I’ve heard you say that before. I’m glad you have a partner. I feel like the e selling in person is a HUGE thing!! Being out in the public and talking to people is my thing! I am a peephole person and I want to be out there. I haven’t driven in about 10 years!! I know it sounds so odd. But I was bedridden for 9 years and now it’s just sooo hard for me to even leave the house and I hate that!! My gosh girl I got soo much out of this video!! I love that you found your colors! I’m not even anywhere near that! Not that I could stick with a handful of colors but I LOVE glaze combinations and trying new things. I definitely have my favorite glazes but I just love to play with the glazes!! So glad you took time off for yourself too. Listing your accomplishments is soooo awesome!! Good for you!! I don’t watch any other vlogs, because it’s so hard for me to stay focused long enough but I really love you and your vibe so I want to let you know that I really look forward to your videos!! Thank you so much and congratulations on you and your wonderful business!
thanks so much for sharing and following along on my journey! I totally get the challenge of selling in person and so glad you got so much out of this video! it's definitely been a journey to get to a point for i feel like i can see my style emerging through my color choices, but totally applaud you for experimenting with glazes! gotta keep it fun! I hope 2025 brings all good things your way. 💛
@ You are so very welcome. I pray all good things for you as well.
Thank you for the end of year visual treats - your video style is so beautiful. Wishing you health and happiness for 2025 - I feel like it’s going to be a good one for you!
thank you so much! and thanks again for your question. I wish the same to you as well!! all good things 🫶🏾✨
I have the same medical issues like you. I had surgery some years ago and now I had the iron infusion too. I like watching your videos. I’m going back to college and I would like to try ceramic.
yeah, it’s a lot to deal with. i hope it gets better for you! you should definitely give it a whirl ☺️
Love the vibe of your vlogs ❤ wishing you well in the new year!
thanks so much! same to you ✨💛
I love your glasses! 😁
thank you!!
Your market set up was beautiful!
thank you so much! ☺️ love switching it up a lil’ bit each time!
I have to ask. What are the little cubes with the numbers on them? I love the e set up with all the colors separated! It looks really nice! I’d love to know what you use to sand your pieces! I see the green diamond block and paper. I used to hand sand everything but once I started using a lot more slipcasting pieces my making really went up and the number of pots I make went up drastically so now I use grinding and sanding bars that go on the wheel. Even though I don’t throw I have a wheel and have wanted to learn but for now I use it to sand my bottoms. But sometimes I have just a handful of items and I’d like to hand sand them. Also when it’s too cold in the garage to sand the bottoms I have to hand sand them. Thanks. Soo glad the woman was understanding about her order and what a cooool idea!!
the cubes are for a lil desk calendar! thank you so much, the setup has quickly become a new fave!! I bought these sanding sponges from amazon a while ago and they have been great! I smooth out my pieces a lot before firing, so these are great to finish with once they are fired. and they are great for me since i'm only sanding a small batch at a time. thanks for asking!! i'm so glad she was cool with it too haha 😅
I have never seen that type of mug, it's so fun!
thanks so much! they are so lovely to hold too. 😌
