Yet another WONDERFUL art technique, you never stop amazing me! THANK YOU FOR being YOU!!! Judy 💓
hope your knee is going super well. I bet you are champing at the bit to get back into the pottery Awesome little nativity 💜💜💜💜💜. I love the quote by Ben Carter and I'm going to mangle it but it goes something like this. "Earthenware is like the girl next door, she is warm and homey and really lovely, works with you on just about everything. Porcelain is like that stunning beauty who cheats on you but you keep going back cos you think it's going to be different the next time."
Lol, love that! Thank you for sharing.
Abslutely adore the gnome nativity! Hope you are doing well after your surgery.
Thanks for sharing Tiffany 🥰 I hope your recovery is going well xx
Sending prayers for fast and perfect recovery ❤
You are so funny sometimes. The beard bib cracked me up. Loved this demo, especially the different backdrops
@@GramaSagefeather lol, thank you!
Oh how cute. Brilliant idea. I watch your videos religiously I just think you are very a very talented lady. I’ve learnt so much from you by watching your videos so thank you Tiffany. I hope your knee is holding up good.
Thank you.
The snowman idea is really cool.
Hope your operation went well and wish you a speedy recovery.
Thank you. Hope all is good with you now after your surgery 👍
Hi Tiffany, love this version of the nativity, something to make for my daughter and grandsons. 11 days in, I hope you are home and the pain is feeling much better. You are such a determined person, you will be back in your studio before you know it, just not yet lol. Keep doing your exercises. Keep taking the meds. If I don’t see you before Christmas, have a wonderful relaxed one, let your family spoil you. Take care. Sue x
I've been working a lot with Laguna Frost, a cone 6 porcelain. I find that if I slam wedge it, it wakes the clay up. Otherwise it can be short. The other thing I find with that particular clay is that it dries quickly, and it soaks up water like a sponge, so I've got to keep a careful balance of adding water when throwing with it. But I love the whiteness and transparency when fired. I also noticed changes with the Standard 365 porcelain. Many clays have been reformulated since the talc shortage. We've got to get used to the new products.
Your nativities are super cute! I'm contemplating ways to incorporate some of these ideas in my work, and make it my own. Sandy is so creative! And you are also, taking the idea and running in a different direction with it.
I'm glad the surgery went well and you're feeling better. Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family, and to everyone else out there who celebrates!
Yeaaa, Ive been waiting for this one!!!!
Hope your recovery is going well
I hope your recovery is going as planned and you are feeling well ❤
Your work is so amazing. I would love to create more sculptures if I was better at it. I love throwing on the wheel and adding textures. Thank you for sharing your techniques.
Thank you for watching.
@@hobblecreekpottery I am always learning so much from other potters
This is going to be a fun project. Thank you so much for sharing your creativity. I really enjoy you videos. I hope you are recuperating well after your surgery.
So cute! Going to make one asap. However, I was a bit confused with the Baby Gnome having a beard too 😉
Soooo cute! I woke up Friday morning and looked for your latest video! I thought it was Saturday!😂😂😂I hope you are healing well and I hope you had a nice holiday!❤️❤️❤️
Love your work 💕
Bonjour J'ai bien reçu ma commande rapidement et super bien emballé 👍
Petite question je vais mettre une couverte après et je voulais savoir si tu avais fais la courte vidéo avec ke rouleau mousse. Et puis-je faire cuire toute ma pièce à 980° seulement .
Merci de ta réponse
These are SO cute! I’m going to try them tomorrow. My granddaughter was here yesterday and we made the Christmas cottage, then watched your video afterwards - so she could use her imagination. The first thing she said when the video started was , “I love her hair!” I hope your knee is doing well and you aren’t going stir crazy.
That's wonderful! Thank you for sharing.
How are you post surgery? Thank you so much for the video uploading while you're recovering 🥰🥳
It's been okay, good and bad days. I'm hoping next week is better.
You asked about clay ! Argh ! I use Standard clay and it has been awful. The speckled is sooo soft and short . I teach and it’s been a struggle . I love your videos ! I look forward to the weekend because of Hobble Street !😃😃
Hope you are well !
Good to know it's not just me, but frustrating for all of us.
"I played with the template"... insert tiny, mischievous giggle....
Now I got to make the ting.
Lol
Ill bet a snowfamily would be cute too
I hope you are feeling good
Thanks for the video, super cute!
I hope you got thru your sugery Ok and ae healing well. Your gnome nativity is absolutely cute!!
super cute, would expect nothing less from you, hope all went well with the surgery and recoverey is good x
Still sending healing . Hope the pain is under control. Take care and try to relax with it.
Oh love these! I made your gnomes using my Mom’s old white fox fur, I just upcycled the fur! Supper cute! I wish I knew how to share a pic!
I'd love to see them. You could email tiffiniehelmer@gmail.com try that. Thank you.
Thank you for this video. These are super cute and I can't wait to try it. I've been thinking of you and I hope you are doing well with your new knee! ❤
Hi. WOW, I love these nativity gnome pieces. I can imagine how frustrating it must have been when the clay wouldn't do what you wanted. The idea of using the transfer as a background is an excellent idea. Hopefully, now that you've had your op, you are getting stronger and are on the mend.
This might be another project for my kiddos class. Also, I was thinking gingerbread nativity.
Cute!!!!
I find that porcelain dries out quickly and will break when rolling small pieces if not kept quite moist.. Love your show. You do amazing things... Keep at it 😊
I get clay from my local clay making company and it seems to work well. They are called Clay Planet and located in Santa Clara, CA. They have all kinds of cone 5 and cone 05 clay bodies as well as cone 10 and earthenware. I only do cone 05 and 5.
So cute. Hope you are doing well after surgery
Thank you so cute, Hope the knee is doing well
Super Cute!!! ❤
Hi Tiffany
I hope you’re doing well from your surgery.🙏🏻
Thanks for sharing, these gnomes are so cute! What porcelain were you having problems with? I use porcelain and I’ve never seen do that.
It's Nara porcelain from Aardvark. I've used it for decades, and it's never done that.
@@hobblecreekpottery so something is wrong with the clay then. I’ve never used this one. The only ones from Aardvark I’ve used are Terra red and Dixon. The porcelain I use are Laguna Frost and Standard 365. They are both very plastic but the 365 is more forgiving.👍🏻💞
@@anasclayhouse Yes, I'm sure it's a recipe mixed problem with the clay. I'm taking out to my clay supplier. Thank you. I've heard good things about Laguna Frost. I might give that a try when I'm back on my feet.
@@hobblecreekpottery hopefully soon! I really enjoy your videos!🙏🏻❤️
Thanks!
Thank you so much.
Nov 12 video. Hope you're doing well. It took me months to get over mine.
I've been told I'm in for it with them taking out the bad one and replacing it. I hope not. It took me months eith the other knee that did great.
Mine was a total replacement as well. Make sure to use it as much as you can, doing their exercises, but elevate and ice between. You'll heal fine as long as you don't just do a lot of standing. Love your work and thank you for your videos.
Hope your doing well.
You need to invest in some blinds, I have see through ones but the sun does not come through.
Do you have "buy me a Coffee
I think I do, but RUclips calls it Super Thanks. It's on the line with the thumbs up. I think it's a heart in a square symbol.
I'm sure you don't realize it, but this is pretty disrespectful. I love most of your pieces, and you probably don't care, but I'm going to pass on this one. Thanks for your hard work. I pray you feel better soon. ❤

@@banjiegirl2001 Can't wait to see her Mohammed gnome or maybe a Ghandi gnome would be cute!
Oh, honey! She does care - more than you’ll ever know - and I know there’s absolutely no disrespect meant here at all. Tiffinie is one of the most beautiful, loving, kindest, most giving, creative souls that I know. Maybe you could just take it as, “To each his own.” See it instead as a woodland gnome family! Okay, it’s not your jam and that’s okay. We are all different but we can all do our best to be kind and accepting of differences. After all, we are a tribe in that we ALL love clay! 😊 Yay!!!
Yes, she does seem to be a very nice person, and that's why I stressed that she probably didn't know it was disrespectful. I also acknowledge that she is free to create her art in any way she sees fit. I was merely pointing out that as she does seem to be sensitive to others, that even in art, we should all respect each others cultures and be sensitive to all people. And that's why I pointed out in another post that I'll be waiting for the Mohamid gnome, or the Ghandi gnome, ot maybe the Geronimo gnome??? All beloved leaders should be characterized respectfully and shouldn't be trivialized.
