[@ladyfingerhandmade]

Lydia you seem like the sweetest person! I love the story of Cookie and Sugar and look forward to seeing your pups in future videos. Thanks for sharing your gift! I love that you show different tools you can find in most homes to get started. I already have some dotting tools for doing my nails, but I like the idea of using cotton swabs and pencils for larger dots. I'm a new subscriber and looking forward to going through all your videos.

glad you are back. So, the enamel paints won't rub off if you don't do a top coat?

[@LydiaMay]

Thank you so much! They should work fine, I just add an extra layer of protection to be safe.

[@lenox_YTB]

Bonjour, Hello, For acrylic paint, what fluidity should you choose ? Pasty, creamy or semi-liquid ? Looking forward to reading you. Marie.

[@mehriazimi7204]

عالی 👏😍♥️

[@annson1995]

How do you decide if you use acrylic or enamel paint? Thanks for answering.

[@brisajohnson878]

Hello how are you. I am happy to see your videos and I am practicing on cups. I have a lamp and I like it if you could help me please with an idea to capture it in my lamps thanks for your videos I hope to have more tutorials thanks for your time

[@terriellison9191]

so I noticed you didn't use the sealant after the project?

[@LydiaMay]

I did! I had that part in my audio and edited it out, sorry! I waited until it was good and dry and gave it a few more coats.

[@annestill9550]

Hi, I just bought your book, but page 74 will not print correctly. It prints sideways, like when you flip it on the short side. It prints this way whether I pick long-side or short-side, or even just that one page by itself. Are other people having this problem? Thank you...Love your videos!

[@LydiaMay]

Thank you so much! If you purchased a digital copy from the Leisure Arts website, you will need to contact them about an issue. Sorry! I only sell physical copies of my book. I gotta tell you, your support means the world! And I hope you love the projects. HAVE FUN!

[@suzicoons9867]

I cannot figure out how to get the dots to get smaller and smaller with one dip!

[@LydiaMay]

They will descend in size on their own. Check out my beginners playlist for all kinds of tips and questions answered. kzbin.info/aero/PLBwgdmNR8h0YbfFXZeWHrNfgD4Mu4cLLu

[@briseidapardo3689]

hi how are you. I see you every day and I have made two cups, they don't fit me like you but I try. I want to ask a favor I have two lamps and I want to decorate them but I don't know how to start please give me an idea how to paint with dots

[@joterry7928]

Gotta say I've never heard it pronounced: chee-wah-wah . 🙄🙄🙄

[@LydiaMay]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/gYKckoN3htlomLc 😘

[@rachelberkemeier2993]

No offense. But I came to learn about the mandala and not your cookie. Super annoying.

[@LydiaMay]

No mam, this comment is SUPER ANNOYING. How about you try, "Thank you for the free dot painting lesson for beginners, like me." By all means, watch a different creator. RUDE!
