I love the older man who makes the flowers in glass. His work is exquisite, but I really love his enthusiasm for his craft. You could hear it in his voice as the elements of the piece came together in the workroom, how encouraging he was toward his studens/assistants, how youthful he sounded when he marvelled at the finished work. Absolutely lovely.
That s what love for your craft makes you like! I’m 48 in July and I have people mistake me for late 20’s early 30’s all the time! It matters also if you care for people! I LOVE PEOPLE and want those who want to learn to get as much as they can and go as far as they can, and if they reach the end of what I know, we learn together or I find someone for them to go further, learning! I fully believe that being a teacher is a lot like a preacher, they each get, “the call” into their profession! Because, God guides my steps, feeds my desire for learning and keeps my pathways straight!! A messenger and a teacher are why I am here!!
I agree Johnny. I gasped when I saw his glass flower!
Being an Activity Director, I"m always looking for something of quality and interest, that connects with the past, is visually stimulating and ignites the mind. This series fulfills all those hopes. March, being crafters month, our folks will love this, with a cup of coffee or tea for an hour, each week. Thank you for this wonderful gift.
So beautiful. Thank you for this program.
BEAUTIFUL! Such a relief from frantic negative politics and tragedies
I had the pleasure of meeting Mr. Simmons. Those hands those eyes....what a treat! A true icon!
Mr. Simmons made gates that sing the most beautiful song and I don't need my ears to hear it. Thank you for all of this episode as well. It's quite wonderful.
Wonderful art of working. My dad belongs to those kind of artists till he dies in 1976. R.i.p.
Every time i watch one of these episodes I am soothed, calmed and inspired by beauty, craftmanship, creativity, playfulness, mindset, ideas of this rich array of beautiful artisans. What a treasure these people are for humanity.
Phenomenal.....thank you thank you thank you for recognizing and recording these artists!!!!!!!!
This is where TH-cam becomes a classroom! There are those who would scoff at the information here-in contained, but it is they who will miss the ö I knowledge to be gained! Such rich heritage and know-how are put to rest each day because those who knew, did not share or pass along what they knew! Don’t keep your treasures stored up! Let everyone reap the benefit and knowledge by passing it on and encouraging others who show interest to step boldly forth in faith and courage!!!
Candie Chatham I’m a needleworker and my son was telling me the same thing not 12 hours ago.
Guess this is my conformation.

The American craft tradition did arrive, 'fully formed' with colonial settlement from Europe - blacksmiths, shipwrights, timber-framers, potters, furniture makers, printers, basket makers, tailors and dressmakers etc. It then took many decades for non skilled people to gradually learn the various crafts and carry on the tradition.
Richard Webb this needs to be carried on.
There were schools here that taught students trades, boys were taught differently from girls.
These definitely came from people who came to America with these skills.
It seems the majority of this generation wants everything now and don’t appreciate some of the old skills.
I teach several types of needlework and love to pass on the techniques. I feel like it keeps them alive.
A truly wonderful series; thank you for elevating craft!
the valley of LOVE and delight
Travis is COOL! 😁 🎨✌
Fantastic video
Didn’t take me long to subscribe to this channel.
I love everything I saw, especially the beadwork. My favorite is the beaded moccasins with the woodlands flower on it. Stunningly beautiful.
I’m going to watch this again.
just found this fantastic Art, yes its right to take your time not rush so beautiful in what i seen.
👌📺 great video!
Well skilled CRAFTS MEN AND WOMEN WERE THE FIRST TO IMMIGRATE TO THE UNITED STATES.
People came with well honed skills, and ready to settle down and offer these skills in the new land that took them in...
Today?
Not so much.
☝️With the exception of the good hardworking Mexican people. They rightly deserve a place here in the US.
if you appreciate this series spend 10 bux on each of the artists to keep them going. They need materials and support!
Brilliant!!
Wonderful..👍👍👍
awesome I would love to be part or half of a group doing something like this
this was just great
my mother grew up in shoshoni.
the student at 37:49 on her phone killed me
Gostei 👏👏👍👍
Fine Arts Press is an independent publisher of beautiful and informative books and catalogs on American craft in wood, textiles, pottery and glass. Their website is: www.fineartspress.com
ok, i really want to know what that weaving in a ring is called! i see he had his students doing it , but they don't mention it. i am trying to find instructions and would love to learn how...but can't find it anywhere! anyone know what to look up?
Dreamcatcher. Its the same technique as needlelace.
CraftyNita the stitch they were doing was a detached buttonhole stitch.
I’m sure there’s someone on TH-cam that has a video of it.
Growing up in the south was so traumatic for me as a kid I'm getting anxiety just watching this. Not EVERY tradition is worth keeping. Its beautiful pottery and maybe enough of the good stuff will survive long enough to see a less toxic south and a generation that can embrace it without the bad memories/history being so personal.
Tristan Collins sending you hugs and prayers Tristan.
I really love all the craftsmen/ women doing their art. Love the native landswomen daughter n mother beading. I was just taken back by the caucasian man teaching native landsmen weaving at UCLA getting paid to appropiate someone elses culture. Smh
I hope the blacksmiths are wearing ear protection.
Thank heavens it's not made in China
Milk House
British redcoats/cochineal...no,no,no. They were dyed with madder. Cochineal was very rare and expensive; madder was cheap. Cochineal has a blue under color while madder's under color is yellow. The brilliant red is achieved with an after-mordant of aged urine (ammonia). I HAVE MADE THIS DYE!!. I HAVE DYED WOOL WITH IT. It is breathtakingly brilliant and very color-fast.
I imagine the American flag red is also madder. It is easy to grow... a back yard crop.
i dont like this because i was forced to watch this
The only thing I didn't care for was the gospel singing and wailing in the background. Ruined the whole piece!
what makes you think all the music is 'gospel singing??
Larry it’s part of Mr Simmons culture and the forerunner of the blues.
Read. Carolina Clay about Dave the potter by Leonard Todd. If you are interested in Carolina pottery and history, this is a great read with a twist.
I am loving this series! So many of my favorite potters are profiled.
