I'm having a Tom Burleigh marathon while I recover from food poisoning. It is just the thing to watch and enjoy. The beautiful scenery, your voice, and your music. Thank you...
Good afternoon Tom, just adding a comment, I admire your agility in your videos. I'm at the point where I need to use a walker, so I appreciate those who use their mobility to entertain others. Kind regards, Pamela 🌷
Thanks Pamela, I'm glad my videos can be entertainment for people who can't get out as much anymore. I like to think my mum would have liked them, though she wasn't all that into rivers. It's taking work to keep fit enough for these outings, lots of long walks over winter. I've got to get out filming a fair amount in the next few weeks to keep that fitness. 🙂
Hi Pamela. I have mobility issues too so I appreciate your sentiments. Those who can climb and crawl and stoop still, are welcome. I love watching Tom and his picturesque videos. Cheers to you.
A classic mudlark. I very much enjoyed it. I can imagine unusual necklaces made of wonky glass beads and some of your strange little finds that would be cherished by unusual people... maybe with some brass or copper spacers...too. I hope your day is a fine one.
Aww poor pony! I hope you can rescue it and get it to a child who will love it and adore it. Great video, and as always, so soothing to listen to you and see the sites. Oh to be healthy and spry again.
Another highly anticipated and very much enjoyed video Tom, thankyou! I loved the look of the gold coated metal in the bag, I thought it was a piece of artwork at first, it would look great mounted and hung.
Thanks Tom for a wonderfully entertaining video. I love all the colors of glass in your window and I really like the way the bag of electroplated metal looked as you had it with the gold shining out. I always love your music, the sound of moving water and your voice. Have an awesome day, week or whatever till next time!
Hi Tom, glad to find your video, with dream like settings, wonderful little treasures, & of course the voice, ahhhh, the voice. If your videos weren't so interesting, I would fall asleep!!! This was really fun, thanks Tom.
Tom I find it quite humorous watching you picking up bottles that are turned down because there common or not good enough. While I sit here in Ontario Canada thinking all of them are old rare and not common. We don’t have your years of history here I think that’s why I love watching RUclipsrs from the U.K. so much history and incredibly interesting.
Ah, riding with you through the village really takes me back, almost forty years. It doesn’t look like villages have changed much, not from the outside anyway.
Great to see you again, Tom. An interesting trip as always. A picturesque closing scene. I trust your lady friend is healthy and well. The finds today were very attractive. Always happy to see your videos. Enjoy the week ahead, and see you on they next! ❤😊
I love the green fields outside your window. It would have been nice to have you raise the green bottles to compare. Now I’ll be looking forward to your next video. It’s Easter Sunday and the sun is shining through my window. I hope you had a wonderful weekend.
Very refreshing seeing you not mind carrying something and not worrying about how heavy it is and actually picking up bottles and taking them instead of explaining about your lack of room for any more a simply lovely video! Thank you. As to a suggestion for a new video I would enjoy seeing all the different edibles you enjoy foraging and perhaps how you like to use them, a favorite recipe perhaps. Or perhaps the steps you go through to clean up your finds or a trip to turn in your metal findings for cash.
Tom, I'm glad you "broached" that question..... Yes:) A lot of people dug that sight, I dig it! Actually, it's good to see most filled the holes they dug. I was surprised this video is a year old, but time and the tide wait for no mudlarker, eh? Cheers, Rik Spector
Many thanks Tom for your videos. You were the first mudlarker I followed. You are a very good person and I appreciate all your efforts. Rob from Adelaide.
I had been roasting garlic and had taken it out of the oven just when you passed by the wild garlic, so that was a lovely, special Smell-o-vision effect! Always love the wading in the water, but what a lot of nice finds in this video. The snow is finally melting here in northern Alberta. I hope spring has finally found you in 2023.
Looking at the comments I'm in the minority here but... I particularly like the conical flask bottle and the glass bottle with the brown screw lid. I'd make a terrible mudlarker because I love all the bottles and wouldn't leave any 😂
This is a great place to spend a day it reminds me of a small stream we used to play in as kids. We actually damed the thing up and made a swimming hole, we had so much fun. I wonder if the youth of today would enjoy this as much as we did. Also that place has sooo much to dig i can hear my dad now saying if you bring one more bottle home its curtains for you. Now many moons later i would still have a problem leaving so much behind i love old stuff. Thanks Tom another great video and as always stay safe✌️🙂
The green jewel could be from a shoe, a type of buckle that was rather popular, or a broach, lovely find. Your surroundings are always beautifully videoed.
Having just returned from a wonderful holiday in Yorkshire it’s so nice the see the babbling streams and emerald moss again. Wild garlic was abundant, not quite ready but still a heady olfactory treat. Some interesting and beautiful finds, thank you Tom. Take care 🙂
I think I'll be heading out to forage some this week, it's ripened up nicely just in the last few days. I hope you found some good treasures while you were here, either in mudlarking spots or the Antiques centre. Maybe by next time you visit, I'll have stocked up the ruined farmhouses with bottles to find. 🙂
@@tom_burleigh I did thank you, Lynn and I found some lovely items. I did visit some ruined houses in the hope I might find some bottles, what an atmosphere those ruins hold. Hope the weather allows you to get out to forage🙂
So nice to hear your soothing, comforting voice again. Thanks for the little river forage. I do appreciate the green poison bottle, even if it is screw top. Greetings from the U.S.A.
This was a great walk in a beautiful stream. I love all the colors glass can come in and you found a great selection. I was surprised to see how many bottles you took compared to the usual amount, it would be so easy to fill a house with all of them. Would a bell be of interest as a creation? Maybe ornate displays for your finds? Cheers Tom, have a wonderful week.
The whole adventure was really lovely. A good classic video from you. Those tiny bottles seem very addictive. But my favorite was the ‘jewel’ of glass you found.
I enjoy the walks and the travel through the villages and sightings of animals so even if you didn't find a single scrap ,I would still enjoy the journey :)
I have never done dumpsite larking, only Thames Foreshore. And I never find nice poison bottles or anything that's not broken. I enjoy watching you and your relaxing art to make the larking walks and you did pretty finds! Greetings from Germany!
I recently aquired,from Craig and Nicole,up Scottish way,a lovely tiny porcelain Victorian dollhouse bathtub. Embarrassingly,I was imbibing. I went to sit up,and toppled over,like a skittle. I heard a crunch. Drunkenly,I witnessed my precious bathtub,cracked right down the middle. I literally owned it for maybe 2 hours,then i destroyed. I am Charleszilla. Craig suggested that Japanese style of repair,and you mentioned it too. That is what I shall do!
at 17:58, the glass 'thing' looks like it would nicely cut out baking powder biscuits! 🙂 So glad to wander the creek searching along with you! I'm afraid I'd be so excited to collect all the bits and bottles, I would be so loaded down I wouldn't be able to make the trip back!! I do love the NOT TO BE TAKEN ones especially (I won't tell, lol!) Thank you for another enjoyable outing, Tom!
Another wonderful video Tom. You found a lot of really neat bottles and things in today's video. Maybe cast some bronze or copper figures or bowls with all the scrap you find. Stamp it with your name. That would be so cool. I would buy one...and please don't cut down your thankyous. I, personally, find that a whole lot better than just saying please like and subscribe. And it allows us to listen to your soothing and engaging voice that much longer. Can't wait for the next video. Happy Easter from Canada Tom.
Thanks Simone, I quite like the idea of bowls... might have to give it a go. I'm glad you appreciate the thanks, I think most people have stopped watching by then (according to YT analytics). Happy Easter to you too, I hope you're having a lovely one. 🙂
I like the idea of a small flock of tiny sheep to sit in your windowsill looking out :) i love snails also, if u make a curve on them along their foot somewhere you could hang them from plant pots..old keys would also be neat..and your lady love may like some bits of jewelry, necklaces bracelets brooches and such...😁 or little charms of her favorite things 😊
Beautiful colour bottles. I would love to grub around in that area! There are no dumps, rivers or places to find treasure near me. The stuff you walk past makes my eyes boggle!
Lovely video once again, Tom. There are plenty of uses for the brass and copper that you have found if you are able to make molds. How about a chess set, using a wooden chess set as a mold pattern? What about making vases, again, using vase shapes you like as patterns? It does not need to be major projects but small available uses are abundant if you look around you. Take care and be well, Tom.
Beautiful area and some lovely finds. My favourite is the art deco bottle, however the tapered green poison and the olive green bottles look good in the window too.
Glad to see you pick up some finds on another pleasant amble along that river bank Tom, we thought we got a whiff of that garlic in the woods. Looking forward, as ever, to ventures to new locations.
We truly look forward to your videos and enjoy them very much. At the end of your videos you show the bottles gleaming as if brand new. Do you mind telling your secret for cleaning them?
Hello Tom, thank you for the lovely wander.. please don't let imposter syndrome bother your mind, not all who wander are lost....most of us wanderers are professionals in our wandering 😊,. There's plenty of pages for those looking for grander purposes, you seem to attract those who enjoy your quiet presence and delight in the journey. Spoon rings are quite the thing again. I'd like to see some lost wax castings of some odd sculpture. Maybe make some sporks out of the wonky spoons? Serious side note- any chance of saving the hobby horse and using it as your carrier bag? Trying to remember the name of the donkey "Betty" grew so attached to in Jingo???? I'll remember at 3am 😅... As always, thank you. Hope all is well with you and your world. You make ours so much lighter with your visits❤
The gold plated sheating is very esthetic just like that, looks like an elaborate collage. I love the way it catches the light. The emerald green bottle is an extraordinary colour. I'm always amazed by the wild garlic on your side of the pond. here it's very rare and protected. Loved the video!
I love your idea of the blue glass beads, goodluck, I hope it works. I would have taken all those bottles and more, can't help myself, I love small bottles. That battery is awesome. I like the large serving spoon idea to. So many ideas. Thankyou, Tom, beautiful scenery and always a pleasure to help enjoy your adventures.
Copper garden pin wheels would be a nice project. Think BIG pin wheels that spin in the wind. Or a big copper rook to sit on the stone wall outside your window. Or if you don't have a pet a copper dog or cat would be fun. I've run out of ideas for now. 😁
Lovely video as always. I love the gem or reflector or whatever the Emerald green thing is. I also love the green bottles. Can you guess my favorite color is green. Hope you had a fun and peaceful Easter.
I enjoy your larks so much. I’m getting to the time of my life where I can’t do these things, so I highly appreciate the lovely artistic nature of your videos. Thanks so much for making them.
Hi Tom, nice to see one of your videos pop up on our feed. We’ve never found a long glass tube like that one. The find you said looks too big to be a watch. Looked like a pressure gauge maybe? Speak soon our friend 🙌
Thanks Rob and Collette. It's a rod rather than a tube, I've found plenty if you'd like one for your collection of things? A pressure gauge is likely, it fell apart during cleaning and that's what it looked like inside. 🙂
Thanks for taking us along, Tom. I can now see why you've checked my tumbling video for glass. Watching you has given me a great deal of inspiration, and I might even wander off the beach to look for some dig sites. I love you channel and look forward to catching up on your videos.
Thanks Ken, I hope you can find some good dig sites, though a lot of my American audience really struggle to find any; they might just be more common around where I live (hilly, and the bits of land that were considered otherwise useless, (steep and unfarmable places by streams and rivers) were used as dumpsites, and never built over). That's not to say don't look, there's a few channels I watch over there who find them. If you're not quite so lucky as them, and want a few vintage bottles with a bit of glass sickness to try in your tumbler, I could perhaps send you some. 🙂
A wide variety of finds. Totally enjoyed. Make a copper horse or tree with thin wire branches twisting and turning bare of leaves with a wide twisting rooted stand. I saw an old man make one once from scrap wire he collected from where I worked at a small family owned street light installing company.
Hello Tom, I would have kept that broken ginger beer stoneware, the chances are you may well stumble on the missing piece. I wouldn't give up on that site, diggers often miss things, and sod's law means that missing piece is waiting to be found. That's a nice green poison, lovely condition, one man's loss is another man's gain as they say. With best wishes from Wales.👍
I enjoyed your walk and finds. Always fun to see what you find! And I'm thinking about free form melted metal on a flat surface. What sort of medium to pour it on is a question I don't have an answer for. I think if you go to any websites for artists in the Upper Peninsula Michigan, you may find some ideas from the copper artists there. Thanks for you videos, hope you and your girl friend are happy and well.
Your latest bottle collection looked marvelous in the light on the window ledge. I spotted a little cup or pitcher at about 21:11 on the video. I was taken by its delicate handle.
Interesting window reflections ; I will have a think about what you might want to make. Perhaps a trumpet with a tongue that dissolves into leaves of many shapes. Maybe not . Perhaps a cage with whoever or whatever you wish to put or semi free in it. Stakes for sails that catch the wind etc or simple etched plaques for placing underwater where they camouflage and disappear.
Thanks Mary, that sounds like Beatles or Monty Python imagery. I'd like to try something like that. I'm planning something with snails, it's a long shot that I can get it to work in brass, but I've tried the basic 1st step for it. Some plaques for hiding in mudlarking spots is a grand idea. 🙂
Great finds, yes you should try to make beads. I think you be very good at making art beads. The bottles are very nice. You can make wind chime with some of your metal finds.
Enjoy spending time with you on your walks and the treasures you find. I mentioned to the Johnson's who also like to create that they might enjoy using broken pottery or broken multicolored glass to make Patchwork like bowls , dishes , cups , or Stained glass like crafts by piecing them together as you would stained glass or with Strong glues. Probably would not be functional to hold beverages or water or foods , but I believe the results would be Beautiful recycled conversation piece craft work. Multiple kinds of Oriental patterns to make bowls or plates. Multiple Blue Willow patterns , Spongeware, etc. I wish I were able to find such broken pieces to try it myself , but I am a bit disabled at present. Thanks for Sharing. Anne Minnick, Massachusetts, USA, Carpe Diem. Namaste.
Such beautiful color of bottles! I love the olive green and emerald colors beautiful earth tones. I wonder how hard it would be to melt them into sheets to make a stain glass window or art? The olive green somehow brought the image of fern leaves or tulip leaves to mind. I would of taken the hobby horse, ahh I am nostalgic at heart.. A idea for your copper or brass, what about a fountain with the copper shaped like leaves, those heart shaped vine leaves maybe, staggered with a trickle of water flowing from one leaf to another.? The small water pumps for a fish tank would work, the base, perhaps thin slate pieces bound together with natural clay. Just a thought. A beautiful walk through the country stream for my birthday, made me smile. Thank you Tom. :)
I enjoyed the vid very much! And, I see you had no problem cleaning the deco bottle without breaking it....kudos! 😊 It's lovely. And, btw...the olive green bottles are beautiful. I watch all you mudlarker's videos and I don't remember seeing a shade quite like that. Not often enough to stick with me anyway. I like them very much. Hope you both are well and thanks for the adventure!
Admire that view out your window Tom ☺️ lovely river, the stone formations natural or man made? Those Victorians had a LOT of refuse?!! Great finds too! Thanx for sharing from a gal in the states🇺🇸👍🇬🇧
I'm having a Tom Burleigh marathon while I recover from food poisoning. It is just the thing to watch and enjoy. The beautiful scenery, your voice, and your music. Thank you...
I was listening while cleaning.
Good afternoon Tom, just adding a comment, I admire your agility in your videos. I'm at the point where I need to use a walker, so I appreciate those who use their mobility to entertain others. Kind regards, Pamela 🌷
Thanks Pamela, I'm glad my videos can be entertainment for people who can't get out as much anymore. I like to think my mum would have liked them, though she wasn't all that into rivers. It's taking work to keep fit enough for these outings, lots of long walks over winter. I've got to get out filming a fair amount in the next few weeks to keep that fitness. 🙂
I would like to say how much I admire your determination.
Much love and respect to you❤️
Hi Pamela. I have mobility issues too so I appreciate your sentiments. Those who can climb and crawl and stoop still, are welcome. I love watching Tom and his picturesque videos. Cheers to you.
A classic mudlark. I very much enjoyed it. I can imagine unusual necklaces made of wonky glass beads and some of your strange little finds that would be cherished by unusual people... maybe with some brass or copper spacers...too. I hope your day is a fine one.
I've started grabbing a musical instrument when I see your videos so I can noodle along with your little snippets of tunes. I really enjoy your style.
Aww poor pony! I hope you can rescue it and get it to a child who will love it and adore it. Great video, and as always, so soothing to listen to you and see the sites. Oh to be healthy and spry again.
Another highly anticipated and very much enjoyed video Tom, thankyou! I loved the look of the gold coated metal in the bag, I thought it was a piece of artwork at first, it would look great mounted and hung.
Thanks Tom for a wonderfully entertaining video. I love all the colors of glass in your window and I really like the way the bag of electroplated metal looked as you had it with the gold shining out. I always love your music, the sound of moving water and your voice. Have an awesome day, week or whatever till next time!
Thanks Debbie. I hope you're having an awesome day too, and that your week ahead is a good one. 🙂
"And, I think I'll take it!" You got so much today Tom! Lucky, lucky you! I love the art deco design bottle!
Always a pleasure to watch and listen to Tom 🙂

Ah, riding with you through the village really takes me back, almost forty years. It doesn’t look like villages have changed much, not from the outside anyway.
There's some big changes down in the towns and villages in the valley bottom, but the ones on the hillsides and hilltops change much slower. 🙂
I so enjoy, your remembering what other folks might also appreciate. You are a good man, friend Tom.
Great to see you again, Tom. An interesting trip as always. A picturesque closing scene. I trust your lady friend is healthy and well. The finds today were very attractive. Always happy to see your videos. Enjoy the week ahead, and see you on they next! ❤😊
Thanks Martin, I hope you enjoy the week ahead too 🙂
Another wonderful video Tom, thank you.
I love the green fields outside your window. It would have been nice to have you raise the green bottles to compare. Now I’ll be looking forward to your next video. It’s Easter Sunday and the sun is shining through my window.
I hope you had a wonderful weekend.
Its always a pleasure to watch you Tom xx
Thanks Karen and Andrew. Hope I've remembered your names right. 🙂
@@tom_burleigh nearly lol Carole and we was exploring near you today its changed so much in a year
@@theluvvydarlings6267 Sorry, my memory for names isn't great. Hope you had a good time over this way, and found some good things. 🙂

Oh, how lovely! A 'Tom' video for Easter Sunday. Perfect. x
Thanks Zarafa, I hope you enjoy it. 🙂
awesome video after a long day your videos are relaxing keep them coming.
Glad that you took those 3 bottles, they are a beautiful color!
Tom,
I'm glad you "broached" that question..... Yes:)
A lot of people dug that sight, I dig it!
Actually, it's good to see most filled the holes they dug.

Beautiful colour bottles. I would love to grub around in that area! There are no dumps, rivers or places to find treasure near me. The stuff you walk past makes my eyes boggle!
Amazing finds! I melted over the bottles. Your view reminds me of a song The Bear Went Over the Mountain to see what he could see. ❤️ from PA 🇺🇸

Lovely Adventure as always Tom, love the deco-ish bottle and the unbroken battery 😊

We truly look forward to your videos and enjoy them very much. At the end of your videos you show the bottles gleaming as if brand new. Do you mind telling your secret for cleaning them?

Hi Tom,
I absolutely love all your videos.
I'm still looking for my local historical bottle dump site.
I haven't found it yet.
Thank you again.
Copper garden pin wheels would be a nice project. Think BIG pin wheels that spin in the wind. Or a big copper rook to sit on the stone wall outside your window. Or if you don't have a pet a copper dog or cat would be fun. I've run out of ideas for now. 😁
Yes! This was fun and interesting. Walt
Wow Tom, you have taken so much. What in the world has changed? Oh well, glad to watch your video. Love your voice, and mystique.
The view from your window is beautiful. Maybe use your scrap pieces and duplicate that view.
That round star thingie looked like a fire extinguisher sprinkler nozzle...for inside a building
Lovely video as always. I love the gem or reflector or whatever the Emerald green thing is. I also love the green bottles. Can you guess my favorite color is green. Hope you had a fun and peaceful Easter.
Thanks Tom
Thanks Teddye. 🙂
I enjoy your larks so much. I’m getting to the time of my life where I can’t do these things, so I highly appreciate the lovely artistic nature of your videos. Thanks so much for making them.
You could maybe make a bronze hare garden statue/ model maybe.. thank you for your videos Tom
Thank you, i so needed this video with beautiful scenery and nature’s beauty. Take care and thanks for sharing 👍🙏❤️
Hi Tom, nice to see one of your videos pop up on our feed. We’ve never found a long glass tube like that one. The find you said looks too big to be a watch. Looked like a pressure gauge maybe? Speak soon our friend 🙌
Thanks Rob and Collette. It's a rod rather than a tube, I've found plenty if you'd like one for your collection of things? A pressure gauge is likely, it fell apart during cleaning and that's what it looked like inside. 🙂
@@tom_burleigh Thanks Tom 😊
Thanks for taking us along, Tom. I can now see why you've checked my tumbling video for glass. Watching you has given me a great deal of inspiration, and I might even wander off the beach to look for some dig sites. I love you channel and look forward to catching up on your videos.
Thanks Ken, I hope you can find some good dig sites, though a lot of my American audience really struggle to find any; they might just be more common around where I live (hilly, and the bits of land that were considered otherwise useless, (steep and unfarmable places by streams and rivers) were used as dumpsites, and never built over). That's not to say don't look, there's a few channels I watch over there who find them.
If you're not quite so lucky as them, and want a few vintage bottles with a bit of glass sickness to try in your tumbler, I could perhaps send you some. 🙂
Lovely video as ever Tom . Great finds and love the perfume bottle , worth keeping as very collectible ❤
Thanks Judy. I'll maybe try and repair the small hole in the perfume bottle with resin. Might be worth a try, at least. 🙂
@@tom_burleigh yes well worth a try 😀
A wide variety of finds. Totally enjoyed. Make a copper horse or tree with thin wire branches twisting and turning bare of leaves with a wide twisting rooted stand. I saw an old man make one once from scrap wire he collected from where I worked at a small family owned street light installing company.
Lovely video, Tom - I particularly enjoy seeing your bottle finds and seeing them lined up with the sunlight streaming through them 🙂
Thanks Rosie. That's how I most enjoy seeing the bottles too. 🙂
Hello Tom,
I would have kept that broken ginger beer stoneware, the chances are you may well stumble on the missing piece. I wouldn't give up on that site, diggers often miss things, and sod's law means that missing piece is waiting to be found.
That's a nice green poison, lovely condition, one man's loss is another man's gain as they say.
With best wishes from Wales.👍
Wonderful stream.
I enjoyed your walk and finds. Always fun to see what you find! And I'm thinking about free form melted metal on a flat surface. What sort of medium to pour it on is a question I don't have an answer for. I think if you go to any websites for artists in the Upper Peninsula Michigan, you may find some ideas from the copper artists there. Thanks for you videos, hope you and your girl friend are happy and well.
Your latest bottle collection looked marvelous in the light on the window ledge. I spotted a little cup or pitcher at about 21:11 on the video. I was taken by its delicate handle.
Happy Easter from New York USA Thank you for Bringing me Along with you I can't wait to see What you Find Next 😊
Always enjoys your videos and your ramblings. As an historic nerd, I’d love to see you cast/make some brass viking brooches/jewelry. Or beads.
Interesting window reflections ; I will have a think about what you might want to make. Perhaps a trumpet with a tongue that dissolves into leaves of many shapes. Maybe not . Perhaps a cage with whoever or whatever you wish to put or semi free in it. Stakes for sails that catch the wind etc or simple etched plaques for placing underwater where they camouflage and disappear.
Thanks Mary, that sounds like Beatles or Monty Python imagery. I'd like to try something like that. I'm planning something with snails, it's a long shot that I can get it to work in brass, but I've tried the basic 1st step for it.
Some plaques for hiding in mudlarking spots is a grand idea. 🙂
@@tom_burleigh snails on ski slopes of copper with tiny men riding helter skelter down their shells
Thanks again, that's a lovely idea. 🙂
Lots of cool finds... Take care .. Happy Easter 🌈😄
Thanks joshyboy, I hope you're having a Happy Easter too. 🌈 🙂
Great finds, yes you should try to make beads. I think you be very good at making art beads. The bottles are very nice. You can make wind chime with some of your metal finds.
Enjoy spending time with you on your walks and the treasures you find. I mentioned to the Johnson's who also like to create that they might enjoy using broken pottery or broken multicolored glass to make
Patchwork like bowls , dishes , cups , or
Stained glass like crafts by piecing them together as you would stained glass or with Strong glues. Probably would not be functional to hold beverages or water or foods , but I believe the results would be Beautiful
recycled conversation piece craft work.
Multiple kinds of Oriental patterns to
make bowls or plates. Multiple Blue Willow patterns , Spongeware, etc. I wish I were able to find such broken
pieces to try it myself , but I am a bit
disabled at present. Thanks for
Sharing. Anne Minnick, Massachusetts, USA, Carpe Diem. Namaste.
Such beautiful color of bottles! I love the olive green and emerald colors beautiful earth tones. I wonder how hard it would be to melt them into sheets to make a stain glass window or art? The olive green somehow brought the image of fern leaves or tulip leaves to mind. I would of taken the hobby horse, ahh I am nostalgic at heart.. A idea for your copper or brass, what about a fountain with the copper shaped like leaves, those heart shaped vine leaves maybe, staggered with a trickle of water flowing from one leaf to another.? The small water pumps for a fish tank would work, the base, perhaps thin slate pieces bound together with natural clay. Just a thought. A beautiful walk through the country stream for my birthday, made me smile. Thank you Tom. :)
I enjoyed the vid very much! And, I see you had no problem cleaning the deco bottle without breaking it....kudos! 😊 It's lovely. And, btw...the olive green bottles are beautiful. I watch all you mudlarker's videos and I don't remember seeing a shade quite like that. Not often enough to stick with me anyway. I like them very much.
Hope you both are well and thanks for the adventure!
shame about the ginger beer enjoyed as always
It's sunny out your window! That is rare during roundups.
Good video Tom. We are blessed with scenery in Pennine Yorkshire. Some decent finds for you. Best of luck for next time. Andrew
Admire that view out your window Tom ☺️ lovely river, the stone formations natural or man made? Those Victorians had a LOT of refuse?!! Great finds too! Thanx for sharing from a gal in the states🇺🇸👍🇬🇧
