I know I burped at some point in this video 😂 but I couldn't for the life of me find it while editing. Sorry in advance LOLL

[@darlenemikkola5239]

Lol, it happened on the first purple dot where you started walking the light dots around it. It made me giggle lol

[@dhanyaatre]

You are human 👍

[@thoughtfuldots]

Omggg 😂😂😂 that’s so funny because I made a mental note of “purple” I KNEW IT hahaha

[@thoughtfuldots]

I am indeed ♥️🤪

[@darlenemikkola5239]

@@thoughtfuldots that is REALLY funny!! Humor is such a great stress reliever, so thanks for keeping it real and having fun with it😂

[@darlenemikkola5239]

Thank you so much for leaving the center dot off and showing how you correct the spacing. Getting the center dot in the center is my biggest challenge also!! I also love the length of these videos and very excited you’re doing them more often!! Thank you, thank you❤️❤️❤️

[@thoughtfuldots]

You’re welcome!! I’m glad it was helpful ♥️♥️♥️

[@user-sp4ce9zy5n]

LOVE these colors together!!

[@kelcritcarroll]

Hi Demi, besides being the best mandala maker on utube in my opinion you also have the most beautiful hands!

[@Angel-yl1ck]

Very very beautiful! Every time I think you are done, you find another place for a dot or swoosh. Thank you so much! You have the finest tutorials.

[@dragonite.v]

your a wonderful teacher! Thanks for sharing your tips and tricks! 😊🙏🏼

[@slay6454]

I loved working on this piece! I already had the exact size board from Walmart that I wanted to use for this then found out you were using the same one. Thank you so very much for teaching us

[@barbaragron6445]

Thanks for sharing your design, I love that you take the time to explain so much, and the nfact that you share your paints and brand names.

[@ritaprovencher6048]

I love the colors. You always make such pretty mandalas!❤

[@laurierozar6412]

I am loving these step by step tutorials. Thank your for taking the time to do them. One thing I did learn from you is I no longer use the circles on the stencil, I make my own circles small like you do and it makes it so much easier to stay straight. Thank you for that tip. I am with you on the center dot and the first few rows are hard for me too.

[@katherinetielker5904]

stunning!!! fine motor control is amazing

[@kavithanagaraju9485]

I liked this design.I think you are professional .tou know to play with colors .

[@Nathalieroy2624]

I love your tutorials! Even on small canvases… i use tutorials for practicing for my bigger pieces. I love it, cause i end up doing something new… a new technique, a new colour palette, etc…using a new tool. So thank you ! ❤ oh, i have a good example, you using small mirrors, it made me think that I could incorporate diamond painting materials in my mandalas! See!

[@thoughtfuldots]

Glad you like them!

[@JEHomestead]

So Beautiful!! Thanks for all your tutorials :) I’m new to dot painting and I’m learning a lot from you !

[@SuperCoyote7]

I really like your work, you make it look so easy so I know it will be harder than I think. Love the swirls, going to try it.

[@kathyfernaays8309]

Another absolute beauty!! ❤

[@thoughtfuldots]

Thank you! 😊

[@pamvandijk8636]

Thanks for sharing ..loved this colour combination ..

[@thoughtfuldots]

You’re welcome!! ♥️

[@stepcorngrumbleteats7683]

Have U ever researched Victorian colour schemes ?? Very bold and (usually) easy to mix from primary colours.

[@lesliebean4594]

Your work is always stunningly beautiful, and though you make it look so easy I have learned without the proper tools and a steady hand these results are also hard to achieve. Thank you so much for sharing so much inspiration with us! I aspire to be as good as you some day. With a whole lot of practice maybe I’ll get there ❤🙂 Side note: even with the foreknowledge of the burp I never noticed it lol so don’t worry!

[@thoughtfuldots]

Thank you so much for being here and for you kind works they mean a lot! Aaaaaand I am glad you didn’t notice 😂😂😂 there was no way I was going to keep searching for it during the editing process! I’m glad it ended up not being too bad lol

[@angelcarrillogomez2971]

Thanks for the tutorial, gonna try this for sure

[@thoughtfuldots]

Have fun!

[@tracy5573]

Thank you for sharing! Beautiful

[@thoughtfuldots]

You are so welcome!

[@Lyn4817]

There is a chart online that lists a lot of the tools used for dot art that gives comparisons from one set to another. Just print it up and we can use the equivalent tool at a glance. I fairly certain the actual mm sizing is given on the stylus tools also. Anyone with calipers can measure the size ball of the Stylus they have at home and mark their stylus of the size in mm. Smaller pieces are far better for tutorials. Including coasters, mugs etc. I recently saw that someone who had dot painted on espresso cups and saucers. They look great. Not forgetting empty bottles or even small recycle containers. I have been putting our empty vitamin bottles aside to do something with. We can also use the multi surface paints to use on our metal water bottles and coffee take away cups.

[@thoughtfuldots]

👍🏻

[@netrasartgallery2397]

Thank you so for Sharing this beautiful tutorial... It's really amazing 😍 and very helpful. Thank for sharing tips also... Colour combination was really beautiful ❤️😊

[@thoughtfuldots]

Thank you so much 😊

[@debratoney5166]

Where did you get your wooden turn table to paint on? I see how much it can help.

[@malihehdoroudgar8546]

Thanks for your video where can I buy tools and colours?

[@srdjannalis3037]

🎉

[@debbiesalay1839]

I've been wondering, as I watch your videos, do you have a pattern in mind or just go with the flow?

[@millieduket913]

I love your designs and process. It's so relaxing to watch. What do you do with the left over paint in the plastic containers? Do you wash and reuse them or do you have one for each time you start a project?

[@thoughtfuldots]

You totally could wash and reuse them but I personally use a new one for each project!

[@mengraciap.5605]

La base giratoria dónde la has comprado? Necesito una para trabajar más cómodamente

[@truptiarwade9415]

Thank you so much for this tutorial. It is very helpful. The pattern is so beautiful and the colors too. Definitely will try this pattern but I am still struggling with the brush strokes. So, can we use nail dotting tools instead of brush for the small patterns?

[@thoughtfuldots]

You are so welcome! And yes you can absolutely swap the brush for nail stylus tool ♥️

[@robinbecker9222]

At the end of my walk the dots they look very sparse, how do you fix that?

[@sanchitasenapati5895]

How can I get the rotatable tray??

[@lftilbury]

How do you keep your chalk pencil so sharp. When I sharpen mine, the calk always breaks off.

[@thoughtfuldots]

Ugh that’s so annoying isn’t it?! I have the same issue sometimes. I ended up getting a new sharpener that has 2 options. A shorter point and longer point. The shorter point option seems to have less breakage!
