Thank you all so much for checking out our brand new making channel! Here we will be uploading our art and crafts made from and inspired by mudlarking ✍🏻🧶🧵🪡💍🗜⛏🪚🔩⚙🪤🗡🗝
I'm very eager to see what you will be working on. Hope it won't be too long of a wait... 😄
How do I know which jewellery is made by you on Etsy?
@@peggyjenkins5525 , I just happened to see this and believe I can help. Their Etsy link is below the video on the other page, but the last time I looked they didn't have anything there. They used to, but evidently sold out or took it off temporarily.
I’ll be watching it all.
@@sand3882 it's been off for months on end. 😥
This is still one of the best makes I've seen, and I love that he can dance a jig!
Simon Shipnail the Snailor! I love it so much ❤️🖤❤️🖤❤️ I also like "Bartleby" Boatnail. I am bed ridden from surgery so I'm living vicariously through you two. Thank you for keeping my spirits up!
My vote is for Simon! Gail, your patience amazes me! Your attention to detail is incredible. I sew, quilt and DIY, but I can't imagine being able to do what you do with copper, silver, etc. Nice job! He's adorable!
He’s so adorable! I thought he was about to become dinner for “Schwoo.” There are so many possible names that would be cute. I tend to go for alliteration - Niall Nail, Copper Carl, Dancing Danny, etc. Keep up the great work. Now, he needs a girlfriend to dance with. 😊
He got the peck of approval!
Thanks for adding a crafting channel! I love watching you make beautiful items from the bits and bobs that you find! As a matter of fact, I think Bob would be a great name for this little guy! ❤️ But from the choices you gave, I guess I would choose Barty.
How is this possible? I watched it, and still can't believe it!! What incredible skill you have. I'm just in awe of you. Thanks so much for sharing.
Hello Ladies! So exciting to see your new channel. 😱
You are both so talented this will become a huge crafters success.
Your talent and precision is amazing Gail. I think he looks like a Simon. Thank you for sharing and can’t wait to see what Alex creates. 💙
I am so pleased you've made a crafting channel because copper, for example, is so versatile and when it eventually forms verdigris, becomes desirable and highly collectable. It took me 5 years to build a scale model of the former warship I served on as naval surgeon and now my ship stands pride of place on our mantelpiece. Always scribe your maker's mark (or design one), and then your craftsmanship will become known and cherished. My sincere best wishes to you both! Wendi UK 🌻
One of my most favorite makes ever! I still call him Bertram Copper, though I have no idea why the name popped in my head, lol. He's lovely Gail...pure creative genius!
Love this!! Barty Boatnail for the win! 😍
What a great job! How artistic and original! Very proud of you. Thank you for sharing. I watch you two more than anyone else! I especially love that you're a mother daughter team. God bless you
He is a lovely wee gent, I like Simon for him. I am so glad you have started a crafting channel, I would love to see some more glass bead making with some of your lovely vintage glass you
Pick up. I am sure this channel will be a hit.
"I'm thrilled with your new channel ! You both make beautiful treasures from your larking finds . 🙂❤🇺🇸👋"
How wonderful! He's super cute! I think he looks like a Barty Boatnail!
I've just watched greatness in action! The talent and creativity it took to creat Simon is masterful. Yes, my choice is Simon for his name. It suits him well and he makes me smile.
Again brilliant work Gail. 👏 I adore you both and can't wait for the next masterpiece!
Kay from Augusta Georgia USA 🇺🇸
Aww he’s gorgeous Gail.He’s really special ..I recon the last one for his name .. Such a clever idea and so much detail. I like that he can sit down too..Love n Light 🥰
I loved watching this video, he definitely looks like a Rory 🧡 he's got some moves 🤣👏 well done and can't wait to watch your next creation 💚
I like Barty Boatnail! What a great little copper man! You did an awesome job!
Thank you for sharing your talents and interests. Your work and enthusiasm for it is inspiring and a delight to observe.
Gail, you and Alex are so talented. Love the Mail man. Moving limbs!
I love this work, the table and the result is a dream.
Inspiring creativity! Love the Nail man. Such a jig man!
So nice to watch yourselves being creative with a great outcome. Music was charming in the background 👍
Can't wait to see more northern Mudlarks male's!! This copper man is absolutely phenomenal!!
He looks like a Simon to me. Thank you for taking us on yet another adventure…this time into creating! Congratulations on this channel! I’m so glad you created it. 💕 from Michigan, USA
NC right here with ya 🤗
I agree!
Gail you are very talented. Your vision for the little fellow and skills to produce it are first class. My vote is for Simon Shipnail.
Gail you are an amazing woman with so much talent. Incredible work.
I'm so happy you decided to have a channel like this. And you best bet as soon as I saw it, I subscribed. I absolutely love watching the two of you. You remind me of my mom and I before she passed. It's beautiful to see.
P.S. this is gonna be totally awesome no matter how often you post.
How cool is this!? You guys are awesome for starting this channel for us. This is going to be so much fun!
Barty for sure.
And the photo shoot at the end...fantastic!
River pants! I knew the moment you posed him with the twinkle in his eye that he was indeed the copper fleet of flame footed dancer! Love it!
I love watching you both making things. Love. Love. Love both of you 💗 💓 ❤️
I watched it the first time, and it's nice to see him again!!! Great launch, ladies!!! 🙌🙌🙌🌺🌺🙌
I made it! Oh Gail that is so spectacular and such a lot of small things to dress him up. I gazed in wonder at his hands and then you did the face! Oh my what a great hand you have at the copper and jewelry I can't wait to see more. xxMary
Oh Ladies Yes yes I am over the moon with excitement that you are starting an Arts Channel! As for Simon Ship-nail, the Snailor.....love them! I wish for you both loads of fun and even more fame!
I like that name!
Barney Boatman rolls off the tongue and reminds me of McBoatyface, the name that should have been the Richard Attenborough boats name, but sadly wasn't picked. 😆
His little Irish jig at the end made me laugh. The Copper dancing Man is delightful and i loved him when you first showed us making him a while back.
Your workmanship and details are beautifully crafted Gail. I so look forward to seeing more of your creations. Xx
I'm so excited to see what you make! The Nail Man is a perfect project to start with. I think he looks like a Simon Shipnail. 🙂 Cheers!
He's definitely a Barney Boatman...I love that you created a channel just for your creations. Keep up the good work. You both are so creative in so many ways.
I loved his last Stayin Alive pose he did after his little dance. I also love how you & your daughter see the world. I've been watching for sometime now. So relaxing. Ty I look forward to your next craft video.
Would love to see you make jewelry out of the sea glass you find, the glass alone is beautiful, adding it with the jewelry will bring it over the top ❤❤❤❤❤
Hi Ladies, well done and well made, great skills especially for a channel like this, loved how you made the face, good luck! regards Will.
Wow, your ideas and pain staking work is truly outstanding! Gorgeous! Barty Boat Nail is my choice! Just beautiful! 🔨🛠
🦿🦾🔱⚜🤖
Ugh I love that one too. NC here🤗
My other favorite!
I sat mesmerized at your work. Just watching you handle those tiny face pieces would have driven most of us MAD. You truly are blessed with talent Both of you. I vote for Simon Ship nail
So talented !!! I could not get enough of your other channel and so happy you made another 😍❤❤
Gail, you do make beautiful art pieces.
I'm so glad you started this new channel, and to start off with your little copper man my favorite. Can't wait for more of yours and Alex creations. Your attention to details is incredible.The dancing Mr Copper would be a nice name.
I agree with the attention to detail! I was surprised with the little hands! Simply brilliant!
Love. This. I'd been really missing the craft parts of your old format vids- and this new channel is just the ticket! I remember Nail Main from his first go-round, but this new home is perfect for him- and all the cool craft to come as well. Nail Man works for me, but I keep thinking 'Mr. Tinker'..... and flashes of the Tin Woodsman from The Wizard of Oz keep haunting my thoughts. Also- a toy I have came to mind. It's a cat (but couldn't be anything you want) suspended from to sticks/handles by strings. The handles are separated/connect by a wooden bar between. When you squeeze the sticks/handles, the cat dances. Apparently called a 'Flap Jack'. Classic wooden toy.
The simpler method is called a 'Limber Jack' where the dancing fellow has a stick attached to his back (so you don't have to hold his head to make him dance) An old timey Appalachian toy.
Either would work well with your wonderful dancer!! (NOT suggesting more work. Just thinking out loud. Cheers! (and thanks for this new channel)
You are so talented Gail!
Simon!
I love that you are doing this! ❤️
Just love this … you are extremely talented. I am so happy that you started this channel. Looking forward to watching 👏👏👏
Your imagination, skill and attention to detail is wonderful . Great editing of video also !
What a talented little man!
Great Job !!! Barty Boat Nail.
💛 I love watching this dapper lil gentleman being crafted each time that I watch this episode Gail - so well done
A nice sip of jasmine tea a couple of deep breaths and away you go.. are we watching the past in action... great job Gail :)
So glad you have made a craft channel cant waite to see what treasures you make.
I love to watch your mudlarking but my absolute favorite is to watch you making wonderful things from your found treasures! Thank you for starting this new channel! I love it!!!!!
Well here I am again watching another amazing video. The Nail Man. All out of scrap stuff. I can watch your videos all day Gail & Alex. You really are to handy amazing people I’m certainly glad I found your channels. Loving this Nail Man .
How wonderful! I carnt wait for your next , you are so tallented, love your little nail man xxxx
I like Barry Boatnail. That video and process are fascinating. He looks like an Appalachian Mountain toy called a limberjack that you stand lightly on a flexible piece of flat wood, tap the wood, and he tap dances.
Can't wait to see what you get up to on this channel ❣️
It’s his itty bitty hands that got me. Sooo detailed. Love him.
WOW!!! Your creation is incredible! I absolutely love it and to be honest I don’t thing any of the names are good enough for him. He deserves a name as special as he is. Lord or Sir something! Thank you for sharing! ♥️
Stunning,Gail!
Oh fabulous !! Always liked your crafting before, but now to have a dedicated vid for it is brilliant. We had wooden pleasure boats here in Eastbourne, remember our father using those nails with the square holed washers to rivet the repairs he did, the biggest boat weighs 33 tons, called William Allchorn ( silent C ) was the biggest pulled up on the beach on the south coast. Looking forward to the next craft you show 😀. Nail man suits him perfectly
OMG I love him!! 🥰🥰🥰 I've been feeling ill all evening but that little dance at the end perked me up a bit, thank you for bringing such an entertaining fellow into the world. Riverpants made me LOL but I think his name is Simon. I hope he joins you on your adventures!
Love your new channel...you both rock..and your little man looks like Mr. Herman Copper to me...keep up the beautiful work
Absolutely delightful little man you made, Gail! So clever and creative! I can’t choose from the names, they’re all so good….I’ll be interested in hearing what you and the community called him. I’ll just call him Copper, for now…😁👍
I just love watching you make things from your treasures. I am not a crafty person so it always amazes me how you can come up with something out of a few pieces of scrap. Keep them coming ladies! Oh, and I like the name Nail Man.
You and your daughter are truly artist! The ideas and abilities that you both have are amazing. Thank you for the great videos.
Rory Riverpants for sure. This is so adorable. Gail you are so talented. I just love watching you creare. This will be an amazing channel. I have subscribed. 🚗🥰
wow so much detailed work! incredible! Simon Shipnail is an awesome name!
Something about the simplicity of Nailman I like considering there was nothing simple about making him. So talented you are on reporpes thank you for the great video.
Amazing little man. You are so clever of imagination. I love to see your creations.
I love this new channel! I like "Simon Shipnail" (or "Darryl Dancingnail" 🤭). You're both so talented & this will be nice to have your adventures & history on the one channel & this channel to showcase your crafts with the finds.
I am SOOOOO IN LOVE with NAIL MAN!!! THE TOWN NEXT TO US IS Tipton, Ok. We love in Frederick, Ok. Tipton has a live size Nail Man. I took pictures to send, but I'm not sure how to share. You both bring so much joy to my days. Thank you. Transplanted to the USA at 6 weeks old from Kings Lynn, Barb
What an amazing character you’ve created! You are so talented. I like the name Rory Riverpants!
Oh my word! I am just blown away by your talent. Such attention to detail. Love his little hands, especially!
The new channel is great for showing off your creativity! I really enjoyed you bringing him to life. I think he's a " Mr Peabody".
You can turn your hand to anything Gail, great skills.. I like Berty but Simons pulling on the auld heart strings. He's a great dancer too😂 Shmoo didn't look too impressed mind you 🤣
Brilliant. There is something so enjoyable about watching you work. Something about your process matches a kindred spirit within me. Although I cannot do all of the things that you do, I have experienced the process in other areas and feel the enjoyment and satisfaction of creating right along with you. Thank you.
Gail I could watch you all day doing your crafting
Very handsome little dancer. Ingenious and so so creative. ✌🏻🤍
barty boatnail he is fantastic you are brilliant thanks xxxxxx debbie xxxxxxx😁😁😁😁😁
Fascinating to watch you at work Gail. Your patience to fine detail is amazing! The little man is lovely. I think Barty suits him well. I will be looking forward to lots more crafting videos. I think it is wonderful what you and Alex can do with the simplest of finds.
Looking forward to more enjoyable creative posts 😊
Simon shipnail is my favorite. So many details on him! He's wonderful!❤
Gail, you are so talented!! I watched it when you first created him and I watched it 3 more times again today. Congrats on your new creative channel!!
Whatever you name him he is by far the grandest dancing nailman I have ever seen! VERY GOOD JOB! I am looking forward to watching your videos on this channel! Please be careful and stay safe ❤❤
Absolutely love watching you both mudlarking. I just found your channel a couple of weeks ago and I can't stop myself from watching a few of your videos every day. I'm so hooked on them. It's so exciting to see the old treasures you find. It brings such peace and joy watching your videos as well. You both are so talented. Keep up the amazing videos. I'm a huge fan...Veronica, from Nashville, Tennessee ❤
hooray! looking forward to more fascinating making-videos...love this one.
Great new channel! Can’t wait to see many more of you’re projects! Thank you for sharing!♥️
Welcome!! We look forward to uploading more!! 🥰
I remember seeing you make this on your mudlarking channel and I am pleased he was the first to go on. You are both so talented in all the things you do. Congrats on the new channel. X
Thank you for sharing! So much very small work, it was wonderful to see. Handmade things are so much fun! People don’t see the love poured into making of treasures.
Barty Boat Nail!
I love his little face and his wiggly little arms and legs!! Simon Shipnail for sure. You continue to pique my interest in metalworking, though the heat seems a bit scary
Got a bit excited when I saw this. Thought heck yes I’ll sub, I love these two crafty ladies. I’ll be one of the first to…. 1.33k already?? Of course….. And I vote Simon Shipnail. In honor of Si Finds
I love watching you and your daughter's videos. I like to watch you Mudlark, and discover the most fascinating objects and artifacts. Then these creating videos are amazing and show your artistic skills. How you put the nose on this nail man was fascinating! The movement is so cool! Loved watching this!
Barney boatman would suit this little gentleman he is adorable, I am in such awe of your talents ❤ I love making things myself but you take it to another level x
gayle you are an amazing artist...could watch all day...thanx
The first name I thought of before you even gave options was Simon. He's just a darling! wonderful job Gail!
