I love the way you chatter, it is just as if you are talking to me. Your explanations are so easy to follow.

[@MagdalenaT-ep2ju]

Thank you. I am a hobby potter and I have no talent. I had a rotten week and tried your Xmas tree tonight to take my mind of life. It was so easy to follow your instructions. The end tree actually resembles yours! First time I made something that is properly nice! I am very grateful for your kind and generous sharing of your creativity and experience. It worked so well, I am going to pack some clay and do another one with my mum who is very depressed at present. A heartfelt Thank You.

As usual I was so excited to see your creativity! I saw your surgery was rescheduled. BOO! I was hoping you were on the mend. In any event, the trees are fab. They would look in a great fantasy diorama situation. Can’t wait to see more. Hope all goes well with your surgery. Again, you rock!

[@simonhornak9807]

I’m going to try this in my class. Do you have any advice to get a good cone look to start?

[@hobblecreekpottery]

Have a cone to wrap clay against. It works great as an armature.

[@denisenoble4010]

Hi, great to find another way of making a tree, and not enough time to do one so close to the big day, however do you have videos of write how about the other trees on the shelf. I'm very interested in the one on the right, as you look at them, great video again. Thanks for sharing

[@hobblecreekpottery]

I'm hoping to get another video up on the trees as a lot of people have asked. Stay tuned.

[@arnitalynch4154]

I love watching your videos. I’m learning so much from you. 2 questions. You said you use a drill to make holes for lighting. At what point do you do this. Bone dry bisque or after glaze. What green glaze do you use. I’m like you , love the build hate the paint.

[@mariagalvanherrera4718]

I am not someone who normally likes working with Clay, but I teach it to small children and honestly your project has gotten me so excited about working with this medium. Thank you so much for the step-by-step. Easy to follow tutorial. I’m wondering if you make the balls ahead of time how long can you store them Without them drying up and what is the best way to store them I know you said to play some in a bag but do you add any kind of moisture in there? Thanks so much for your advice I appreciate it. I love your comment about no perfection and art because that is what I say to my my art students all of the time, and we even talk about mistakes being a part of how we learn.

[@hobblecreekpottery]

@@mariagalvanherrera4718 A damp box would be best, but a damp sponge in the bag would work if they are going to be there awhile.
