Yay sooooo happy to see another video 🙌🏽

[@carolynsnyder7043]

I have that same doily ! Love this!

[@taniam6520]

Excellent video. I have learnt so much from your channel. Thank you 🙏🏽 ❤

[@joylouise5417]

Nicely done. The artist’s eye is a wondrous thing! Fresh uses for old objects-a doily, an old rusty gear, twig. . . Your shaping techniques are great. I especially appreciate how you create mug bottoms! Thanks for all the tips. Your bird feeder tutorial was such a help and so much fun. Many happy birds around here thanks to you.

[@SuperFavouritevideos]

Love your work and your curls.

[@workofartgreeley7065]

Love your videos. Yes, what diameter is the cookie cutter for the round. Thank you!

[@jrobo4576]

Love you technic, your mugs are amazing, but could you please tie your hair up please?

[@bbjo787]

Actually - I loved looking through your beautiful, curly hair!

[@SIMPLEARTSCRAFTS]

Hi ! You have a great youtube channel. WoW! Very intersting videos. W0w! I wish prosperity to your channel. I wish 1000,000 views for each video. WoW! Have a nice weekend. May God bless you and all your family. Good luck. 🍑 🥭 🍍 🥥 🥝 🍅 🍆 🥑 Very nice! Cool!

[@anniecannistra3870]

Could you please tell me the diameter of the circle cut outs you use for the bottoms?

[@JacobGust]

The circumference of the mug itself is 11 inches, so the diameter is 11/3.14=3.5. It looks like a quarter inch on either side, so add .5. The diameter of the base piece is 4 inches.

[@karinamattei4691]

How thick is the clay slap. I enjoy your watching you work.

[@lindaseguin9039]

What glaze will you use to show texture? Lovely work as usual 💕

[@mollysimmons2960]

Is the clay your using stone ware? What was the white dusting used on the clay bottoms that you stamped? I 🥰hand built mugs🤗☕️

[@angiels71]

Is that a biscuit cutter you use for your bottoms?

[@tricialee5]

Very nicely done, Rana. How thick did you roll out the prepared slab? What are mug/slab measurements....5" x __"? Why do you bevel mug edges at 60 degree angle vs 45 degrees? What is diameter of circle cutter for bottom/floor of mug? Lots of questions - thank you in advance.

[@anntully3081]

11" according to the video

[@giveadoggyabone1]

What tool did you use to get the scalloped edge for your mug bottom???

[@pigcatapult]

I know I’m late, but it’s a cookie cutter

[@kelseybombard491]

can you share a link to the cutters? I'm looking on amazon but im not sure if the ones I found are big enough

[@karinamattei4691]

Where to you buy the silicone texture Matts.

[@Stacyznyc]

Is that your logo on cup bottom with corn starch?

[@bigredfred33]

That’s beautiful, I could drink a nice cold beer out of that, lol.

[@ixchelssong]

I like that grassy-looking thing you keep your tools in! What would that be called (so I can get one myself)? 😊

[@Curlyrana81]

It’s called Boon Lawn. I believe it’s a baby bottle drying rack of some sort.

[@ixchelssong]

@@Curlyrana81 Ok, thank you! 😊

[@patriciadelfinagonzalez1330]

Tu CABELLERA TAPA PARTES DEL TRABAJO, Y NO PUEDE VERSÉ,PERO ES MUY BONITO

[@Stacyznyc]

What is the table material you are cutting the clay on?

[@Salemagnet28]

She said it was Hardy backer board.

[@lowtarhater]

The clay seems a bit to thick for the base, making it look applied but not integrated. Perhaps if you narrowed the base by removing some v shaped "darts" the added thickness of the overlapping bottom slab would blend in. It's just my opinion, but overall the handle is also huge and detracts from the intricate fine pattern of the lace. There is just too much fighting going on with the gigantic handle and large base that fights for attention with the pattern. If you want an overall Very Large Mug, all the extra very large additions just fight for attention, not to mention add weight. Must be a monster with 16-18 oz of liquid, if the red cup is any indicator. Hope you don't stop working on these, they are inspired!!

Maybe you could pull your hair back when filming? I learn so much from you! Thank you for the videos! 🎉

[@Debjam56]

I’ve viewed the video many times, but this is the first time I’ve wanted to comment. Each time I’ve viewed, the only thing that bothered me was your hair that was in the way the whole time you attached the handle. Very annoying. Other than that, I learned a lot. Thanks for sharing.

[@aslstudent7188]

I love this video, but your hair got in the way 🙄😂

[@Curlyrana81]

I know. Stupid hair 😂. I get headaches when I tie my hair up. It’s the best I can do with low budget filming

[@aslstudent7188]

@@Curlyrana81 Lower budget where!?..lol it was a great video...lol i was so into it..thanks a bunch for the vids

[@karinamattei4691]

What scoring tool are you using. . I like it

[@karinamattei4691]

Very nice

[@deborahnowak7138]

Please speak louder as your comments are difficult to hear. Also please tie your hair back as it hinders seeing clearly exactly what you are doing. Thank you.

[@fruitlessbeast]

All scolding and no kind word of encouragement? C’mon.

[@geripohlkamp8485]

your curly black hair blocks several key moments of the video. Can we say hair band?

[@Curlyrana81]

I’m not a professional videographer. I’m an amateur ceramic artist that spends some time in my basement studio after working 50+ hours a week at my day job. My curly hair hangs because that’s how I wear it. You don’t need to know that I get migraines from tying my “curly black hair” back but now you do. In other words, I post these videos to give back to the clay community and this is all I’m capable of. Thanks for the view!

So boring and slow. Unprofessional/
