    Thanks for being here everyone! Van life has just gotten sweeter and sweeter. The more I find passion in various things, the more I realize I can make almost anything work in the van. There have been many questions about how I've been able to merge pottery and van life.
    For right now, I continue to use the studio in town to do the majority of my work, and to fire the pots. I hope to do the entire process off-grid in just a few short months on the property.
    Big projects to come!!

    You are so gifted! Your artistry comes through in your writing, and storytelling, videography, pottery, and the artwork on your pottery, and the process of making your homemade lotions. And that was just this video. I just love watching every video. I feel truly blessed to be a small part of your journey just by watching!

    Grab a spray bottle next time you are at the store for water. Perfect to use for the pottery during the process in the desert . you can also spray a few pumps on the pieces throughout the day while keeping them under the plastic.

    My grandmother used to have a manual pottery wheel. It had a large stone underneath (in a large wooden ring) that she would push with her foot to make it go round & round. Must've been exhausting! She made most of the dishes for our cabin, that we still use today. 🙂 Happy Crafternoon~~ xo

    Using grape seed oil for skin care is also great. It has no smell, so you can add any essential oil/s & the oil will be more fragrant. I use black pepper essential oil for my husband & the smell is divine. You got guts kid. Koodos.❤😊

    Hi Linnea, I’m sorry to see your beautiful pots crack on you. I have a suggestion you might want to give it a try. I make Hypertufa planters and to prevent the plant pots from cracking after the form has been made, I wrapped them loosely with wet newspapers and put them into a plastic bag and leave them for several days to slow down the drying time and to prevent cracking. Just a thought you could give it a try.! ❤
    Kudos to Chris and the Ghost scene!😂❤

    If you add a bit of either Titanium Oxide or Zinc Oxide powder to your lotion, you have a moisturizing sunblock. Mix one jar day cream with this and apply before going outside. Use other jar without this as your night moisturizer. Off course you can just add it into the batch, and have the sunblock not blocking anything at night, lol. I did this before and added a drop or two green food colour and sold it to family members as a day cream and night cream. They came telling me how different the two felt and how it was getting rid of wrinkles, lol.

    The moisturizer looks wonderful. I have psoriasis on my knees, marigold or calendula leaves= soak in olive oil ( or whichever you want ) I leave it 4-6 weeks in a dark place, then I strain the leaves out, heat the oil slowly, add some beeswax, then put an essential oil in - pour it in a small container and THAT clears the knees up faster and better than a $52 prescription from Doc and it leaves the skin soft and glowing. I’ve made same with plantain

    So i have a question, are you just naturally amazing at pottery or did you have some previous experience to draw on. I did pottery at school for 3 years, LOVED IT, but it took me so much longer to be able to throw a decent pot/cup
