She introduced many polymer clay artists to the community including Judy Belcher, Maureen Carlson, Kim Cavender, Katherine Dewey, Emi Fukushima, Syndee Holt, Debbie Jackson, Donna Kato, Barbara McGuire, Ann Mitchell, Karen Mitchell, Becky Meverden, Lisa Pavelka, Gail Ritchey, Nan Roche, Michelle Ross, and Bob Wiley who have inspired countless polymer enthusiasts.

The "Carol Duvall Show" was a popular DIY and crafting television program that aired from 1994 to 2005. Hosted by Carol Duvall, the show featured a wide range of creative projects, crafting techniques, and interviews with skilled artisans. It became a go-to source for enthusiasts seeking inspiration and guidance in various crafting endeavors, showcasing everything from paper crafts to home decor ideas. The program had a significant impact on the crafting community and left a lasting legacy in the world of do-it-yourself crafting.

The show also featured interviews with crafters and fine artists - painters, sculptors, glass-blowers, etc. with footage of them at work in their studios.

The cancellation of the show on HGTV caused dismay among many of her fans;[1] whose protests might have influenced the decision to continue broadcasting it on the DIY Network (owned by the same parent company Scripps Networks).[2]
