      I think the sculpture is amazing. The lady who commissioned you knew what she was looking for. Love the details of the design. I have to say I'm so happy you are wearing those lashes as my granddaughter wears the same ones and you kind of share her personality, so I feel an automatic kinship with you. Anyway, I hope you have a wonderful week.

    Hi, I have recently started glazing with uv resin and was wondering how long you cure your charms? I tried for the recommended time on my resin bottle but it still came out sticky and I had to cure them for longer. Your charms always come out really nice and I thought you would be the best person to ask this question. What works best for you when it comes to curing your charms and what up lamp do you use as well? 😊

    you are the same as me, i feel tired and sad when im alone and with my brother, but then whenever i watch your videos, boom! my sadness goes away and i get a small smile on my face, i love your cat clay work, i watched your cat with the noodles with the cute bowl.
    i hope that you will keep going with your shop and i wish too, i wish that you will see this comment :D i would be happy if you hearted this comment or comment on my comment. you also know animal crossing and i do too, i love that game and cozy games, i also love ooblets : )

    I admire your golden hands, I also have golden hands, only they are inserted with the wrong end. I understand that you feel comfortable making these charming funny figurines, but would you like to challenge yourself by doing something serious, for example, a replica of the famous Nefertiti figurine? 💖
