The joy you both find in your mud larking adventures is so contagious. I can’t tell you how many times I have sat watching your videos and find myself saying “wow” or “that’s beautiful”. Then to watch you turn what others consider trash into beautiful treasures is amazing. I also love your background music.🥰☺️ Thank you for sharing with us.🙏☺️
My granny lived through the Great Depression. They turned broken things into something new, and called it a "make-do.". A stuffed ball of velvet on top of your candlestick would be a beautiful hat pin holder or pin cushion! ❤️ from Kentucky
I had the same thought but like this: A piece of scrapwood for a base, glue a row of these spouts on it with E-6000 glue or the like, then small shards of porcelaine and pottery all around the base, and lastly a bit of grout for a beautiful mosaic Mudlark teatowel hanger! They’s also be lovely for a little garden mosaic fountain with water coming out the spouts.
I love when youtube pushes something delightfully niche to me like this. I don't know why, but I love watching people be super passionate and excited about things I know nothing about!
Since you guys are so interested in glasswork I thought you might like to know that the Corning Museum of Glass here in the United States has a RUclips channel where they post demonstrations every week. I thought you guys might like it. They go into great detail explaining how they do the different techniques being demonstrated in the videos; and they have master glass blowers from all over the world that come and do guests demonstrations.
Your videos are so well done,I'm amazed at your skills in repurposing items, I Love what is created and what is rescued,the music is beautiful too, thank you, loved watching every bit of it.
I dearly love that you take trash, even small broken glass pieces and make treasures with them. Astounding bead work. I worked as an Education coordinator for a major fabric and craft retailer in the USA for over 10 years. We had a teacher doing bead making, glass blowing in a store in California until the insurance folks found out. No fire safe place in the classroom. I am sure you have precautions in your home you can tell viewers about.
So many beautiful things to see. A tea cup 🍵 for your Mudlarking Barbie so sweet! You could take that and make it into a matching plate. I loved the teeth on her head aaarg! I know it was a previous video every time I see I laugh. I wonder if that beautiful rose 🌹 would fit a ponds container.Beautiful crafts
I hit the like button immediately when the video starts because I know I am going to ❤️ love it! You ladies never disappoint! The beads, hat pins and tiny bottles are precious! Thank you for sharing!
The swirl is universal and a perfect representation of everything being connected. From the snail to the galaxies, the swirl gives us a link to our ancestry all the way back to when the first cells of life on this planet came into existence.
I miss read the bead making and thought it said bread making, although I thought it unusual I was waiting to see delicious bread but instead was rewarded with delicious beads 😀
Awesome treasures and beautiful bead making, even the bottles and hat pins look amazing, well done. God bless and stay safe and well and thank you for sharing 🙏🙏🙏🙏🥰🥰🥰🥰👏👏👏👏👍👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️❤️🌸🌸🌸🌸
I've been a long time subscriber now and I'm so glad, because I really would of missed out on two wonderful and kind people like yourselves, many blessings and love........until next time
Watching you in the bead-making segment was so much FUN! I've never seen it done before so I was totally entranced! Can you use almost any shards of glass? Or does it have to have certain properties? I loved this video! All good wishes to the two of you. You're both such special people! 💕
It's always so fun watching you two find the neatest bits and bobs of treasure and then turning some of them into new works of art. I love and respect that you see the beauty in perceived "junk" and that you are able to bring it to a new generation.
You have such a wonderful relationship between the two of you, It is a joy to watch. It is clear that Gail has been an amazing mother and Alex is a super wonderful daughter. It is such a pleasure to watch how you interact with each other...just beautiful! And you do such fun things and make a big variety of different types of art that is just lovely!
Your beads came out so lovely, and I particularly love the little lavender bottle. I am quite envious of your fabulous art tools that let you do lamp work in your home!
What a beautiful outing thank you for taking me along I loved it! Thank you for the information on your finds ❣️I really really enjoyed the glass making projects you are both so very creative ❣️cheers enjoy your week keep creating♥️♥️🌸🌸🇨🇦
The teapot spout upside down looks like a pudgy leg! I love your bottles! In my minds eye I see them hanging from different heights and also on a step shadow shelf. Perhaps filled with different essential oils. You both are a breath of fresh air! I look forward to seeing your videos each and every Sunday and you never disappoint me! Thank you so very much!
What a wonderful video. Our favorite, " stories " to be enthralled by, and beautiful glass making pieces. Your videos are our Sunday delight we so look forward to. Thank you, you both have charmed us
You are both so enjoyable to watch. Gifted and creative. Thank you for all the adventures, music, views of scenery, sites and thrills of the hunts. So relaxing and educational. 😍🤗😘 to you both from Michigan, USA. 🇺🇸
Great video 😊 I loved watching you Gail and Alex find your treasures and then making those absolutely beautiful beads, bottles and the really lovely hat pins. You two really are skilled craft women. Look forward to your next video 🌹❤️🇦🇺ccc
The beads are so good!! You two have really got this down. Barbie the Mudlarker now has her own teacup and collection of bottle! What will she want next? There is a type of teapot that has many spouts and it’s a risk pouring your tea as to which one works! 😁
Such a great day and lots of finds. I like the bottles you find and they come up so clear and in lovely colours. Those little glass beads and bottles, the both of you made are beautiful, You are getting it down to a fine art now. Thank you, enjoy your week.
I am astounded by the brilliant artistry the two of you possess!! Never in my life have I've seen people make bottles and beads. Ohmy! I also love your relationship to each other. That agate cup was the find of the day! Tea sports would make cute kitchen drawer pulls..keep up the amazing work!
Absolutely loved your video of the dump and you both are getting so good at making beads and bottles. I love them all, well done and thank you for your videos. 🙂💜💜💜
Amazing finds😊a brilliant lark. We love your beads, hat pins and bottles. Very talented indeed. Thank you for sharing Best wishes Mark and Julie 👍⭐️👍⭐️👍
Absolutely mesmerized by both your mudlarking and especially the bead making. The greenish beads from the Czech vase glass are the most beautiful. Please keep sharing. Thanks.
Since you do not know the coeficient of expansion of the glass that you use a little experimenting is in order. Make a small test piece mixing 2 colors in several layers. Anneal the piece and set it aside. Later see if it has broken or if it will break easily at the junctions of the colors. Once you have found pieces that appear to be compatible Place the chunks aside together. If you test has been successful, those pieces can be used to make more colorful beads and other things. One other thing, to not have to use the chunks with the tweezers, attach the chunk to one of your rods and use that to add glass to what you are making. You may already know all this, I thought I just thought I would add it anyway. Again I really enjoy watching your lampworking glass.
You should totally make miniatures for dollhouses and dioramas with your amazing talents, like that mini cup!

So happy that you took the green man home with you. Beautiful treasures.
I love the idea of turning broken forgotten bits into something beautiful.very well done.
Thank you very much! X
Totally agree
@Marilyn Dreamwalker Mejorado Sooo do I!
Sunday is mudlarking day on RUclips!!!!
I had a very "Mudlarking rich day" too!
Glue the spouts to a board if you have strong glue, you can hang things like scarves from them. Longer tea spouts will hold kitchen towels.
That is a terrific idea!
i was just going to comment this! ive seen it done with railroad spikes and thought of it immediately. great suggestion!!
Great idea! I was thinking the spout looked like a table leg. Collect several and make a tiny table.
Ohh YEAhhhhhhh 🤓

I've watched some of their videos. They are amazing!
I've been there it is very cool. Isn't there a Steuben museum there as well? Cornell is a great university too.
Micah, I didn't know this. Is it in Corning California? I live in Nor Cal. : )
I was there yesterday! It's amazing!

Your videos are so well done,I'm amazed at your skills in repurposing items, I Love what is created and what is rescued,the music is beautiful too, thank you, loved watching every bit of it.
Thank you so much! We put a lot of time and work into our videos 🥰💕
Thank you for the little burst of Moonlight Sonata, I used to be able to play this (40 years ago)
I have to say I love your choice of background music. You have come a long way in bead making since the video of first attempts, well done.
The bead making part was amazing! You two are just awesome 👌💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜👌👌👌👌
Thank you Gail and Alex for taking us along . Always a joy to see the treasures.

Always LOVE the little bottles and "stopple boppers"!!
Me too. love the colours.!!
U guys really found some great stuff today. Love the green man,& that doll house cup, oh my gosh. Very nice.
Lovely beads. And headless figures. Keep up the good work.
The bead drop at the end!!!! It should be the new “mike drop”!! So lovely!
This is your second time making beads & bottles? Your technique has already improved so much.
So many beautiful things to see. A tea cup 🍵 for your Mudlarking Barbie so sweet! You could take that and make it into a matching plate. I loved the teeth on her head aaarg!

You two are taking Recycling to a whole new level. You really have something unique with that spatter glass.
Scotland is very pro recycling, even McDonalds has trash bins for each type of trash; plastic, paper etc.
Your beads are just wonderful!
I miss read the bead making and thought it said bread making, although I thought it unusual I was waiting to see delicious bread but instead was rewarded with delicious beads 😀
Your beads are getting more beautiful each time you make them!
Awesome treasures and beautiful bead making, even the bottles and hat pins look amazing, well done. God bless and stay safe and well and thank you for sharing 🙏🙏🙏🙏🥰🥰🥰🥰👏👏👏👏👍👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️❤️🌸🌸🌸🌸

Maybe you could make the teapot spouts into decorative hooks for the wall to throw a bathrobe or something on.
Alex, "A little boy bead." ***LOL*** Love your videos, adventures and crafting!!!!
Haha! 😂
Watching you in the bead-making segment was so much FUN!
I've never seen it done before so I was totally entranced!
Can you use almost any shards of glass? Or does it have to have certain properties?
I loved this video!
All good wishes to the two of you. You're both such special people! 💕
Beautiful! Love watching you make beads and bottles and now hat pins 💙💛🧡🤍💜🧡💗
I adore the green man, he will make an amazing pendant that I will be utterly jealous of
Just so lovely! Thank you for the respite from the world. Bless you ladies.
Oh yes, beautiful and cool idea to make that broken glass turn into beads glass. Awesome! 😊
I can see you have really mastered the art of making those lovely beads. Thankyou for showing us.
I like your hat pins!!!
Making the beads absolutely fascinated me- 😎🇺🇸
My favorite thing this week? That gorgeous little teacup Alex found,,,,,I absolutely love it!
making beads from mudlark glass pieces was brilliant! I love them
What a treasure trove! How lovely.
It's always so fun watching you two find the neatest bits and bobs of treasure and then turning some of them into new works of art. I love and respect that you see the beauty in perceived "junk" and that you are able to bring it to a new generation.

I love all your glassworks; beads, hat pins and your mini bottles

P.s. maybe you could sell bags of beads for people to make their own jewellery? XX
I love the bottles they're so adorable and I like the blue hat pin it was very swirly good work.
Thanks so much 😊

I loved watching you both create your beautiful new treasures from old bits.
So that is how you make beads out of glass! I had no idea! The beads turned out just beautiful!
The spout..amazing! The fragments...beautiful pottery shards! Oh, the little bottles....I just love them!
I like Alex's Smurf hat pin!
You could also make beautiful hair sticks for your beautiful long hair Alex.
Love how you two made the glass shards into beads and tiny bottles! Love the hat pins
I love beads and make jewelry. If I had the time to learn this I would be in bead heaven. Wonderful treasures ladies.
The teapot spout upside down looks like a pudgy leg! I love your bottles! In my minds eye I see them hanging from different heights and also on a step shadow shelf. Perhaps filled with different essential oils.

There is a type of teapot that has many spouts and it’s a risk pouring your tea as to which one works! 😁

My first thought with the spout was to use it as a wall-hook or a little pull/knob on a cabinet. I’m always so envious of your finds!
Absolutely loved your video of the dump and you both are getting so good at making beads and bottles. I love them all, well done and thank you for your videos. 🙂💜💜💜
Che meraviglia 💯👌👍☘️COMPLIMENTI

Wonderful finds, Ladies! I like this place. I love your beads...yay, team!
Love all your glasswork and metalwork videos, please do more from time to time.

Beautiful glass and bead work, ladies! I also kind of fell in love with the teenie tiny teacup.❤️
Love that little tea cup too! And that gorgeous twisty bottle stopper.
