I am always pen and ink in hand doodling.
Well that's when I am not painting, crazy
Well that's when I am not painting, crazy
quilting,gourd burning,etc,etc.... you get
the picture. The brain is never resting
these days. I have to try everything
and anything at least once...
Now they seem to have a new name
for doodling it's now called zendangle.
So I had to try to doodle zendangle
some beads. What fun using Friendly
Plastic (remember that stuff). Well I think
this is the new revised addition. Easy peasy...
I just doodled zendangled away on the plastic...
then heated it with my heat tool, and rolled it into
a bead.
After shaping and drying it with two coats
of Mod Podge they are now ready to paintI will use alcohol ink then two more coats
of mod podge and finally resin. I'll be back
with photo's when finished.
For a more detailed tutorial on this go to the friendly
plastic website (just google it) and look for a
tutorial by Linda Peterson. It's a video and fun to
watch.

What a great idea! I've been wanting to learn the Zantangles but never would have thought about making beads from them. I love it.

Brilliant idea you have. Love your doodling/zendangleing. Your beads look fabulous. Thank you for sharing. Happy creating...
This looks like fun! And I can SOOOO relate about wanting to try is all- at least once! I will go look at the tutorial - I have my 9 year old granddaughter for a week next month and this looks like something we can do together :-)

Hi Sharon,
Love what you have done with the Zentangles.
I have been doing the same thing with beads but mine are a different style.Not done yet!!!!
Our postcard group have a Zentangles trade going on. I never heard of it before that.I had to google it to see what it was all about. Joggles has a great tutorial about it.
Meanwhile Take it easy. Your gardens are gorgeous. Worth all the aches and pains!
