OH! OH! OH! You did "Vaughan" Fishes....they are AWESOME!!!! AWESOME!!! AWESOME!!!! - along with all the rest of your pieces. Please take care, hoping your migraines soon become a thing of the past. Love from New Jersey!
I've had (luckily) about 5 migraines in my almost 70 years. They are miserable. The fact that you are up and working is AMAZING! Your fantasy mushrooms are fabulous. I can't wait for your tutorial video. I'm obsessed with your bowls and fish 🤗 too. Feel better soon and get some rest! You are one hard working woman!
I feel so bad that you’ve been dealing with this migraine for so long. I pray you get relief soon!! As always this was an incredible kiln load!! Love all of your creative ideas. Vaughn is going to love your fish! Save the planet, make some fish!! Lol
I get this awful headache which feels like someone hit me on the back of my head with a shovel. Gaad so painful, it lasts for 2 weeks but peeks midway. I googled it and it said was a “tension headache “ - 🤷♀️
@shelleydoxtdator753 I'm sooo sorry. This one feels like a horde of demons stabbing my skull with pitchforks. My eyes feel like they are going to explode out my face too.
Tiffany, you poor baby, I suffered from migraines for years. I'm free of them now, but had to delete all negative influence from my life and retired. Love your mushroom people, and yay to your tribute to Vaughn's fishys!❤❤❤❤ beautiful and I'm sure he's smiling. Bless your heart for pushing on. Love love love that tray. Thank you.
Oh my heart was in my mouth as I saw the post stuck to the shelf and then it fell, I actually cried out sitting here, nearly choaked on my lunch. I'm so sorry that happened! Likely cos you are suffering, horrible thing Migraines, I hope you feel better soon. You and hubby are in the war's you poor things 💜💜💜💜
Those bowls are gorgeous! To bad some crawled but they will be okay after a refire I am sure! Take care of yourself my friend! You have had a lot thrown on your plate lately so take it easy okay? Sending healing vibes your way. And I am soooo watching your fish tutorial this weekend! 😅 I am planning to jump on the 'save-the-planet-with-Vaughn' wagon and make some fish too! XX Monique
So glad you were able to save the pumpkin plater and mushroom. I love the mermaid mug. It’s absolutely gorgeous 🥰. I hope the migraine dissipates soon and you can get back to normal. You did well to get through the video. Sending hugs 🤗 from Queensland Australia ❤
Nice! As usual I love the mushrooms, they will go great in my very wet Florida garden, Hope you get rid of that migraine soon, and the MRI is perfectly clear
absolutely love those fairy mushrooms!!! The aurora green one is my favorite too but they are all super cute! Gorgeous glazing and design on that mermaid mug! I guess I missed the Vaughn challenge, lol...I love fish too! The fins on your first fish are amazing with the palladium...the colors💗 AWWW!! The kiln post, dangit. Love the combo on the bowls too, great job! I hope you feel better soon💗
Hope you feel better and can get some good sleep when you do! Thank you for making the videos though feeling so badly. You are a wonderful teacher and I sure do appreciate learning from you!
I am so empathetic to your migraine. Big hugs! I’m amazed you’re able to get so much done. 🙏🏼 I can hear in your voice how I feel when trying to effectively communicate with a migraine. It’s like they’re just temporarily gone. I look forward to the beta fish tutorial…..take care of yourself! 💜💜💜 PS Vaughn helped me mentally survive the pandemic. Love that guy & I own one of his tankards now.
I don't think Vaughan has any idea how many people/potters he's helped out. What a man! I own one of his sgraffito sailboat framed tiles. It hangs in my studio as inspiration. Someday I'll get to Nova Scotia and meet him in person.
Beautiful as always ... looking forward to the mushroom tutorial ( my son has betta fish he is going to try and make some after seeing yours :) Hope you're feeling well soon
I hope you get better soon!! Love the video's you make, and learning a lot from you, my first wheel thrown animal, see picture (ad soon as I know how too send them) is thanks to your video! Take care, Ellen from
Hi. First, I'm sorry about your migraine. My mum had them. I know how much she suffered. The fact that you're on your feet and functioning is amazing. Get well soon. This kiln unloading is great. I love that first mug ... did you say raven? The colours are great. The bowls remind me of horizons when there is a reflection. Like you, I made a fish after watching Vaughn Smith. I can't fire yet. My kiln is getting new elements. As usual, I love everything I saw. Anyway, take care and hopefully, you're starting to feel better now 💓
The raven mug is so cool! I love the fact that you can see through him. He's kind of like a secret image. Sorry about the migraines. Have you tried peppermint oil? The 5 oils for migraines are peppermint, chamomile, eucalyptus, lavender and rosemary. They help me a lot. Love the blue plates, and the mushrooms. I'm looking forward to the beta fish. My son wants sushi plates and I've been formulating a plan. It hasn't coalesced yet, but getting there! Did you know you can use the colors for earth on the back/bottom of a piece? They may flash on the shelf but won't stick. It won't be shiny, but you can decorate the back of the flat ornaments if you like. I use them on the bottoms of my pots when I don't want to glaze inside the footring. Feel better! You've had enough medical issues! Stay well and stay centered! And thanks for all the tips.
Thanks for another great video. Whenever I unload a kiln I always “bounce” the shelves first to unstick any possible stuck posts. I lift them up about 1/2 inch or so and put them down sharply. You could also rock the shelf back and forth. I had many broken pots to teach me this lesson. Hope your head feels better.
I usually do the rocking of the shelf. This migraine has made me stupid. It's been decades since I've made a mistake like this. Just glad I only broke one piece.
migraines suck...big time....i have them a lot, and i never get used to them.....the way you speak and move are very similar whenever i try to do something....your kilnload is very nice....i recognized the fischies from vaughn immidiatly...lol.....and your fischies are very nice too...in brighter colours they can go as guppy's aswell😉...take care
This is my list of little things that help with the migraines - change your pillow, if you are a side sleeper, try “ my pillow” you can adjust it to fit your neck, I also have a soft banana pillow, the traveling type - smooth, Colombian type coffee, I notice that the bitter type of coffee triggers my migraines but the Colombian type helps - take a head ache pill as soon as the migraine starts, don’t wait, if you don’t stop it early it can go for days, ask your doctor for some heavy duty stuff, Tylenol doesn’t help much - pause the wheel and wedging, give your neck a rest - no hats, loose hair, avoid anything that compress your head And some times crying helps! I hope you feel better soon, migraines are evil!
Hi Tiffany. I am so sorry to know about your migraine. I don't know if you've tried to use rosmarin and peppermint to relieve it, but I want to share with you what I make that has helped a friend of mine. I grow peppermint, real pepper mint, not the curly one, and I take it and deleaf it and dry it half way before putting it in a blender ( about 3 - 4 tight packed cups) with strong alcohol, I use a hand sanitizer that's 70 % or more . I put this into a big jar, putplastic foil first and then the lid, tightly. Then I pop the jar into a black bag and on a south facing windowsill to sit for at least a month before draining and sieveing the mixture. I also do the same with rosmarin, but I do not dry it first, but mix it thoroughly with the alcohol. After sieveing both (very dark green liquid), I mix them together and pour into a bottle and that is my base. I make a spritz from this by pouring it 2/3 full into a small spritz bottle, and put extra 30 drops of rosemarin essence and fill up with alcohol. My friend, who is bald, btw, used this by spraying it on his head and said it made him feel much better and his mind cleared up as well. I use this mixture on my feet morning and night and in my shoes as well and my feet never ever smell. I cured my sefl of corns on the bottom of my feet with this and they have not returned. It's good for fungus prevention as well..... Sorry for the long essay, but I hope this can help you in the future and others that read it.
@@hobblecreekpottery I originally took an old school med that is no longer available and then I was a guinea pig trying different meds, it got to the point where my doctor gave me percocets and told me to sleep them off. It was workplace stress and once I left that location and switched divisions, they went away. Not much help to you unfortunately.

Yes, Vaughan is fantastic - I basically watch you and him. 😊 great teachers of pottery!

@shelleydoxtdator753 I'm sooo sorry. This one feels like a horde of demons stabbing my skull with pitchforks. My eyes feel like they are going to explode out my face too.
I feel soooo honored to be paired with him. He's a muddy Rockstar!
@@hobblecreekpottery Exactly how I feel 😢 I haven’t had one in a year though 🤞

Migraines can be scary as well as painful, hope it clears soon. I get sooo affected by the weather.
So many wonderful pieces. Love your videos.

Beautiful pieces! I hope you are feeling better.

I do hope you feel better soon. It was hard watching you suffering. I love your take on the fish. I must make some for Tasmania😅. Thinking of you x
Heal quickly! I can’t imagine a two-week migraine. Ouch!

@A.L.75 it's a plate for serving sushi
Thanks Pat. I've tried everything. All the things you listed. I do have Colors for Earth and have been experimenting. LOL, I'm always experimenting.

Love the shrooms I tried to yell for to watch that post but I was to late
Lol! Wish I'd had heard you.
I hope you feel better two weeks of Migraines sounds horrible. Some great results in this kiln. To bad about the heart bowl.
Pain pills keep me awake too.
oy, I have dealt with migraines (30 sick days in 90 days was my worst run). Take care of you.
Yikes! How did you survive it?

@@hobblecreekpottery thumbs up for surviving, thumbs down for having them... I can't choose both >.< gah!
I sympathize with you. Migraines are not fun. I’ve had them and had to go get shots for them. Your in my prayers.
I’m so sorry I’m praying for you
P.s. my fish is drying!
My daughter had a beta fish. She named it “masta”….. 🤨🙄🙄🙄😆😆😆
Look at any medications you take. My cholesterol medication made me have terrible headaches and made me lose my eyesight.
That's awful. I actually don't take any medications other than multi vitamins. I'm really healthy other than my joints giving out. 😀
I felt saddened seeing your things fuse and crawl and break.....all on top of your migraine. I wish you better days ahead.
