Buenos días podría poner desde que corta la baraja y si la tiene que mojar para trenzada me interesa pues me perdí por 10 años en depresión y deje todo lo que me gustaba acabo de ver el video y me llamó la atención podría decirme desde 0 o debo pagar para que me diga le agradecería me pudiera contestar Dios la bendiga desde León Guanajuato México 🇲🇽 🙏🏼
Hola, lamentablemente Claire Murphy ya no es una creadora en Vigour and Skills, ya que se ha retirado. Gracias por su comprensión.
Wonderful tutorial, thank you! I didn't think to braid Reed stalks but I'm definitely going to try this! 😊
Из какой травы плетение?
Плетение сделано из ситника.
@@vigourandskills 🙏🙏🙏
are you the same woman who participated in the Wildfire miniseries?
That was beautiful. The video, the music, the artistry, everything. But what did she make? It wasn’t a basket per se. What would it be used for? Or is it artistic and not utilitarian… I’m wanting to begin making baskets, but it hadn’t occurred to me to make one that I wouldn’t “use” for something…🧐
Wow great work .... super nice .
What is this video about woodturning music or your beard 😂😂😂😅😅😅
Loving the music, who is it by
Warriors Passion by Spectral Blade;)
Good progress
I'm confused, are you showcasing how much wood that chisel takes out?
Nice hollow form. Very impressive, really. Sorry to hear about your health issues. May I suggest a face mask, so you don't get any new health issues.
🎉
Who needs eyeballs 😂
I was a big wood turner in high school and always wanted a Vicmark lathe. Nice to see one in use. You dont see too many for some reason....beautiful work.
Hermoso me gusta. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤. HErmoso bello
So beautiful, thank you so much for her video.
I had to mute the music
Thank you for sharing your thoughts. You're absolutely right. Upon reflection, we'll definitely look into changing the music for this video. Appreciate your feedback!

I love the grey sweater that she has on! It looks like the one on the stand behind her but without the turtleneck. I like it better with the crew neck collar.
😍👌🤌🙏👏❤
Thank you so much! Delighted to be part of the V&S family ❤
Great video. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you!!
How exciting 🎉
So smart to make it so simple ❤
Love the music! Who is it by?
Hi Scott, it is Digital Secrets by Unicorn Heads (th-cam.com/video/DAFQCbz0oqQ/w-d-xo.html)
Keep it up I enjoy the vedio 💗💗💗
I love the sack! Very cool. May I please suggest that you only use wood or soft plastic to clean your mold with. I have never seen anyone use metal. That will gouge your mold and scratch it which is obviously bad for the mold as well as it will get plaster dust into your pots. Just a suggestion.
Дякую
Вам дуже радо, дякуємо за перегляд
Superbe 🤩🤩🤩🤩 on a le temps d admirer, d apprécier et de se faire des envies.... Bravo cette présentation est très réussie 👏
Merci xx
What is it?
This is a video showcasing the making process of our talented ceramicist, Kinga Amielcha. We hope you enjoyed watching her create this beautiful piece!

Nice to see you on TH-cam! Keep on working with ceramic! Bravo Violaine pour cette intervention et les explications claires sur ton travail!
Very satisfying to watch. Good skills, Glynn, good luck with the new venture.
Thanks Mike, it is very satisfying. Probably a bit like rebuilding a car!!
