Zentangle Kit
When I first encountered the idea of Zentangle Kits, I was a bit skeptical. But, when my kit arrived in the mail and I gave it a go, I really enjoyed making my first Zentangle. The idea behind it seems simple, but really effective. I love how it encourages experimentation. And, there are allowances for mistakes and imperfections. My kind of mantra!
The kit costs $49 (+shipping) and can be ordered through the official Zentangle site. Each kit contains 34 ’tiles’ (high quality watercolour paper that’s pre-printed with some info on one side), 2 micron pens, 2 pencils, a sharpener, an Instruction book and companion DVD, and an icosahedron. Although the instruction DVD and booklet aren’t really too helpful, but the whole thing’s simple enough to understand.
Other than the kit, the shop also sells supplies. So, you might want to put together your own kit, if you wish.
If doodling is something you wish to try, but with a fresh slant, then check out Zentangle. Even if you don’t fancy yourself as an artist, it’s definitely worth checking out. Lots of possible uses in craft projects and ideas. I’ll share some projects in the future!
Anyway, here’s my first Zentangle -
