Watching Donna’s tuts are my little treat on a Sunday night. ❤
Mine to.❤
Tots!
Me too!!!
Sweet, D- thanks for the prebake tip... I'd forgotten!
And... nice to know I'm not the only one who hums while working.... lol
Love ya Lady- miss your energy! ♡ Klewie
hi carla! yes, i prebake a lot. i hum a lot, too! now, may i ask a favor of you? would you mind subscribing to my channel? i know it's important to spreading my tutes and that would really help me and help us get the pc word out, too. thanks in advance! hugs, d
Wow Donna. Love the starry night blend. Leave it to you to figure that out. Amazing!
thank you, Deb! Hugs, D
I have loved watching you create your magic for a long time, I have a couple of your books and always learn something new! Thank you so much for sharing!
You are so welcome, Donna. Appreciate very much! Hugs, D
I love buying a bag of mixed beads and sorting them into colors and shapes. I can spend enjoyable hours doing it.
This is so timely: I've been trying to deconstruct this cane since you showed it last week.
Great, kitty! Hugs, D
Hola!!! me encanto el tutorial,eres una gran artesana,pocas herramientas y mucho ingenio.Felicidades.😘
Thanks for the oval jumping tip! 😁
Thank you for sharing your poly knowledge.❤
OMG Donna, I love this skinner starry night blend... I've got to make 100's. Thank you so much. 🥰🙀😻
So glad, Jill! Hugs, D
@@DonnaKatoArt I made 11 SN-SBC last night. Lots of colors... I couldn't stop. Hello lots of new jewelry! ❤ D, you're my rock star. I've been doing clay jewelry for several years but took a break for about 4 years to work on other art. You, Donna made me want to get busy and create clay again because of your fantastic videos on You Tube and the beautiful jewelry you create. Thank you so much for inspiring me again. Can't wait to see what's next. I made a INRO box with what else, a starry night cane, it's beautiful - TKS.
Дякую за чудовий настрій та натхнення, які завжди дарує ваша творчість !💙💛
LOVE THIS CANE! ❤
thank you, John! Hugs, D
Donna, thank you. I have a lot of clay and I have not done a thing. With your helping will.
👍
Very Nice Mrs. Donna. Love them and great class.
Hi Rosa! Hope you’re well, sweet girl. Big hugs, D
Another amazing design and extremely helpful lesson. I just finished some beads before seeing this class and I used a similar technique to construct the hole. Buuuut...your way is much better than mine since I worked more for each bead and in the end they are thicker. Thank you very much! 💐♥️🤗
You are so welcome, Marina! ❤️
Thank you Ms.D! Tell Mr. V thank you for making the centering tool available.
Did I miss it in the video where you showed us how to make the little gold findings?
Hi! Now, the gold finding demos are in several tutorials. I think the latest is in the French bead. I think it may also be in the Skinner Blend Starry Night tute, too. Hugs, D
I’m waiting to hear you hum ‘Popcorn’ lol ❤
Love this one! Thanks. Do you notice a difference between just chopping and using the mini chopper? The mini chopper rounds them.
The Mini chopper chops finer chunks! 😊
Wonderful tutorial
The tiny gold donuts you make. When you pop them out have you tried using the circle cutters you used to make them in the first place?
You now, I haven't done that, I just poke them out from the back with the ball stylus. I think my problem would be finding the cutter I originally used! Hugs, D
Oscar?
Food processor. An old food processor! ❤️
Love these!... So glad I bought the templates from Prairie Craft a while back!... My Starry Nights canes need help. I think I need an Oscar. ❤
Tanyaaaa!!!! Hugs, D
@@DonnaKatoArt XO ❤
Thanks for another wonderful tutorial!
What is the name of the sandpaper you use?
Hi! I use Abranet - you can get it on Amazon! Cheers, D
Hello I am a new Donna super fan...I can't get my clay to stick to the tile when I make the circles. Does it make a difference what tile you use? The clay has really adhered when I put the gold on but when I put the cutter on the clay it sticks to the cutter.you make it look so easy. Thank you.
Hi Susan! The tile should be smooth and shiny! No texture! Try cutting slow and withdrawing the cutter slowly. I have to soak mine occasionally in alcohol to clean any residue from the cutters, too. Hugs, d❤️
Te he escuchado mucho hablar del pequeño Oscar...... que máquina es? Gracias de antemano 😊
It’s a mini food processor! 😊
@@DonnaKatoArt mil gracias 😅
can you share where to purchase the tooth that rolled on the black cane to make the millimeter marks before cutting please
Hi Mary, that's my Marxit. I will find the Chinese knock off. Yes, I got ripped off but it's okay. Cheers, D
Does the crystal melt when you cook the clay?
Good question, Kim. You must use glass crystals, not plastic. Glass won't melt, plastic? Well, probably! Hugs, D
What setting do you use for gold donuts?
They tend to be 4 or 5 but could be any thickness you like. 😊
Well I tried this and something went very wrong. So I chopped it all up and combined it into a big grayish purple scrap ball. I will try again.
You might have folded and rolled too many times. Just look at it each time you roll it. Cheers, D
Where did you get the tool for measuring your cuts? Thank you.
ohm, Rhonda, that's my marxit. we got ripped off in china and so we don't make it anymore. they do, however and I will search out where you can get it. hugs, d
@@DonnaKatoArt I found some on Etsy. Thank you for responding. 😊
Donna what was the gray tool you used to mark 3mm sections in the black clay? Where can I get one? Thanks!
Hi Elaine! I am not sure where to get it, anymore. We used to make it but got ripped off from China…thinking of buying them from China and offering them myself. Funny, right? I cannot make it for what they sell it for … huga, ❤️
Ugh! I’m sorry that happened. I took a bookmark mold for UV resin and just made a clear bookmark-then cured and put a thin layer of resin on top and laid cut pieces of 20guage wire at the increments I wanted then cured again. Seems to work great-was rather tedious but I made my own tool🤗
@@elainestorrs1512 very inventive, Elaine! I think get the knock offs, though. If you can’t beat them (we can’t) join them! Hugs❤️
Nervous humming and do do do filler noises are not needed! Your work is beautiful.
Can’t help it, it’s the way I work!
@@DonnaKatoArt Then hum away!
I love it! I don’t think it’s nervousness I think it’s just her humanness. I think for a lot of us it takes the formal feel of being in a class away and helps us to be relaxed while we learn. Miss D you actually have me listening to music again cuz the songs you hum and sing in the background have gotten stuck in my head more often than not. Thank you, I didn’t realize how much I’d missed music.
@fawnwolfe7355 we are so blessed to have D here I so enjoye the videos as I’m a visual learner and need the vocal lessons so I appreciate here so much the ones that play bc grown music destroys my focus I have to turn the down to mute and then nine times outta ten I never finish the project I just love her she is such a gem !! 💎
Who is Oscar? If he chops can I please find out what he is?
Teresa, I don't know if they still make Oskar. The Little Oskar is a food processor. Small. It's actually very much like the small Cuisinart I have. My Oskar is a real worker, have had it for 30 years or more..hugs! D
What is little Oscar?
It’s the original mini food processor! If I had to replace it, I would get any mini processor! Hugs, D❤️
Where did you get this long oval template that you are using and what did you use to trace the inside to cut the clay?
I also need to mention that these earrings are absolutely gorgeous
