[@Pamelakaygorman]

You are the Color Master. So much to still learn from you.

[@DonnaKatoArt]

Thank you, Pamela! Hugs, D

So cute! I’m thinking they’re reminiscent of funky beetles. And I love the crystal addition (but I’m a huge fan of sparkle).

[@DonnaKatoArt]

They do have a “buggy” way about them! I thought the same thing. I thought they needed a bit of sparkle, too. Hugs, D❤️🎉

Thank you for the info regarding acrylic on polymer. I haven't had much success, but now I have an understanding of why! 🙏

[@DonnaKatoArt]

I hope it helps, Stephanie! Hugs, D

So opportune today. I wanted to make my neighbour some earrings before she escapes from winter. Thanks❤️

[@DonnaKatoArt]

You’re welcome, Sharon! ❤️

Happy NewYear Donna! These earrings are just so cute, and yeah they remind me of little bugs. Thank you xxx

[@DonnaKatoArt]

Happy New Year, Cindy! Yes, bugs! Hugs, D

Many great ideas!❤

[@marikasaphiris9371]

Hi Donna , what is the best way of attaching posts to " huggy" earings? Glue or embedding?👋 Thanks ❤ from Italy

[@DonnaKatoArt]

Embedding is always the most secure. Glue can give out! Hugs, D

[@donnachace-larson4795]

Love this design! Thanks!

[@jennvelope1]

Can you show making cufflinks?

[@DonnaKatoArt]

Just bought them so…coming! Hugs, D

[@Axelsmom22]

Thanks so much for your tutorials. What was the name of the silkscreen artist?

[@DonnaKatoArt]

Hi! The screens I like are made by Moiko. Really great designs and very durable, too. Cheers, D

[@MichelleFillion-thebeesknees]

One more question. The cane storage boxes you linked, what are the sizes of the openings the cane would go down into?

[@DonnaKatoArt]

They come in different sizes - you see, they’re for shotgun shells and ammo. Better to 0put clay in them, I think, but there it is! Hugs, D

[@MichelleFillion-thebeesknees]

Thank you ​@@DonnaKatoArt

[@jennvelope1]

Please demonstrate cuff links or other items for men.

[@DonnaKatoArt]

I could do that! I need to buy some some cufflinks! Hugs, D

[@MichelleFillion-thebeesknees]

Hi Donna! Love your tutorials ❤️ I have a question, Ive heard rumors that Kato clay is possibly going to be discontinued in parts of the world or everywhere. Any truth to that rumor?

[@DonnaKatoArt]

Hi Michelle, this is a fluid situation, for the time being, we’re safe but things could change. I wish I had a better answer than that. Hugs, D

[@MichelleFillion-thebeesknees]

​@@DonnaKatoArtthank you, i know a lot of claymakers use your clay(Ive just barely started to try things with it), so hopefully it'll stay around.

[@bekee]

Speaking from experience, I bet! 🤪

[@DonnaKatoArt]

Ask me how I know!🤣 hugs, D!

[@RamoArt]

When you said "dropsy" I remembered you mentioned you had a betta in an older video. I hope he is okay and you didn't have "dropsy" on your mind because of him!

[@DonnaKatoArt]

My sweet Pedro. He’s gone. You have to be so careful about feeding…i miss him. Hugs, D

[@SherryAvalosCastro]

I always try cheap first😂
