I’d love to visit Charleston but especially to see these talented basketmakers! Really enjoyed this video.
I’m surprised he showed you the technique. The Charleston natives are really nice and fun ppl one of my favorite reasons to visit
I am from the Turks and Caicos Islands and grew up watching my grandmother sew baskets just like these
Cool. I love the Turks and Caicos islands. Can't wait to go back
Don Scott should teach classes on sweet grass baskets
That's a really cool video thank you
I'm so happy to see you r working on those beautiful baskets
Great video! I have been to Charleston several times and watched them making sweetgrass baskets and know as a rule they do not let people take pictures of them working in an effort to protect their special craft. Wonderful people in beautiful southern city and I hope I get a chance to get back there some day. Thank you for sharing this with us!
I was in Charleston for the first time a couple weeks ago. I wish I'd had more time there was so much to discover. I don't remember seeing these artists. I'm going back (more than once.) I hope to help out these incredible purveyors of history. We should not be ashamed of our history if we have grown and improved upon and changed negatives into positives. Be proud of your heritage and the hard work our ancestors put forth in order to get us where we are. We've got it GOOOOOD family. Love one another.
Tony thank you so much for your video. I am from the Low Country myself, so I know that the basket makers do not tell you have to make those baskets. I cannot believe the Palmetto leaves are part of the basket, how cool is that.
That is so neat ....!! I hope it won't be a lost art . Hopefully his kids will eventually they want to learn how to make them too .
That was very interesting my friend. Take care and have a blessed day.
thank you
This is one of my favorites from you!
Thanks
pretty cool, i like the flowers he made. i love that he learned that from his grandma, too. i never pass up things my elders can teach me.
I lived in Charleston for a few years and my husband and I return each year for a visit. I've shopped for and purchased several baskets but NEVER have I gotten personal instruction or learned the history behind the baskets. Thank you for sharing!
Thank you for watching. It was very interesting
WOW I love this video and history of the baskets , I have never heard the history of them before . Thank you Tony
It was fun talking to those artists. Thanks for watching
Tony, how cool is this video? I’m a DIY type myself but those baskets are incredible. Have seen them in the old folks homes years ago but had no idea where they come from. Thnx for sharing with us and when you make that first million, don’t forget your ole buddy SR LOL. keep up the great work and I’ll be looking forward to the next “ Station identification “. 👍
I will probably net 5 cent. Those 2 days in Charleston cost a lot. I paid the first guy$20 and bought a $40 basket from the last
Very cool Tony great history lesson for all very time consuming work but th they are beautiful when finished thanks for sharing
Thanks Joe have a great weekend
Oh my! As soon as mr Scott said to dunk your sweat basket in water, I freaked out! I ran and had to dunk my sweat grass baskets! I did not know that. My mother in law gave me a couple of very beautiful basket a few years ago. I also bought some for Christmas presents at the market in Charleston years ago and still did not know that! I would also encourage people who visit Charleston to stop and talk to the people who make these basket, they are so wonderful to talk to. Great video Tony! Thank you.
There is a lot of uknown & unseen talent in Charleston. I've witnessed the construction of the sweet grass baskets, and my daughter purchased a basket for her home. I used to work with a guy from Charleston before he moved to Atlanta. He stated his mother spoke the Gullah language which is only spoken around the coastal areas of SC, GA, Fla, & NC. Another one of the many talents found around Charleston. He said he understood he since he was raised around it. However, it was like a foreign language to me, lol. Great videos Tony!👍
I'll have to do a video on the language
Very interesting. Loved the history of the sweet grass basket. Thanks for sharing this.
Your best video yet! I truly enjoyed the history lesson!
I found you because of Brenda Gantt but I'll keep watching because you're interesting. You make me want to go back to Charleston for one of those sweetgrass baskets.
Another good one, Tony....Thanks again....
Very talented people! Loved the instruction lesson, I did not catch his name. Would love some better up close video of his technique. Thanks.
I had to cut outa lot. For a lot of viewers it gets boring but I try to get the broad view and important stuff. thanks for watching
Очень красиво, хочу научиться, Научите пожалуйста!!!!❤
Cool video Tony. Nice to know what they are and what it takes to make them baskets.
Oh, Donald Scott, do you have a website to buy your art crafts?
I think you have the wrong link to your facebook account lol.
I don't understand??
