A similar design executed in pastel tints of the rainbow hues would be beautiful for the Easter season.

Brand new to this craft. Learned several tips in just this one video...and hope to apply them once I get started. Thanks, much appreciated

[@denisesmelley8546]

Beautiful! The rainbow color palette is one of my very favorites, and you have executed a design that shows it off very well.

Binged your channel on my nights off! Any way you would share your video set-up? I'd like to invest but I'm holding off! I do other hands on hobbies (fly tying and taxidermy) and you absolutely have the best visuals I've seen!

Hi. Do the DecoArt metallics work?

[@marmarsmandalas]

Hey! I just started my dotting journey and you've been SO helpful! Thank you for sharing! I just wanted to ask is it ok to use matte paint then just gloss it with a finish? I bought a bunch of deco art paints bit didnt realize they're all matte lol. Thanks again ❤

[@thoughtfuldots]

Yes totally!! ♥️♥️

[@dianelybarger6194]

I was looking for the link in the description for the chart for sizes of the styles you mentioned in your video. Did I miss it? Is it free or a paid download?

[@thoughtfuldots]

It’s free I just forgot to add it. Will do that now thank you for telling me!

[@Kuhelinath]

Hi ma'am. Can you please tell what is the thickness of these round boards? I couldn't find them in your Amazon link

[@marialuisadevai1988]

Hallo you are so beautiful and all your video are veryyyyyyy beautiful! i never make this work I would like make a mirror but I looking for a circle base on Amazon but all I have found are all very thin wood are good all for little work.Can you please write me where I can buy it? Sorry for my English I am Italian !

[@thoughtfuldots]

Thank you so much! I buy my larger wood pieces from BrennaBath on Etsy but she is in the US.

[@sharontaylor3882]

Do you ever prime your large wood rounds before painting and if so what do you use? I am just starting to paint mandala's on wood rounds and was told to use Golden Gac100 and Gesso before applying any paint. Would love your opinion on this.

[@thoughtfuldots]

Hello! I do not. I only use 1 coat of FolkArt multi-surface paint in pure black for my base. Multi-surface paint is more durable than regular acrylic and 1 coat works just fine. Also, the wood I use is very smooth so it doesn't really need a gesso. That's just the way I do it, you can do whatever your heart desires :)

[@sharontaylor3882]

Thank you.

[@samiestewart6109]

I get so frustrated when I have so much more room left.

[@happymandalas]

Very nice
