Could anyone help me out and post some pictures of Zentangles? I can’t seem to post pictures, I forgot how, lol!

Thanks Gemme!

I’ll post the sign up either tonight or tomorrow morning. Still dealing with family stuff. I need to get on my laptop to do it. I’m excited about this and I definitely need a distraction.

Ooooh, so excited about this one. I've never done zentangles, and I already ordered a workbook to teach myself how to do them. This project exchange has been so good for my mental health. I appreciate how much time, energy, and care you all put into your projects. Thanks!

[nanners]

Bump! Hopefully we can get a couple more participants!

It's easier to add to if it's not quoted.

Just some news: My mailbox recently fell over and pretty much disintegrated when it hit the ground. So my sister and BIL came over today to put up a new one for me. It's a much nicer mailbox than the one I've had for the last 30 years, and bonus! It's bigger than my old one! Now I can get bigger and more projects without them being folded over!

[nina03]

I think sign up closes today, so I'm bumping this to try to get it in front of anyone who meant to sign up and forgot. You won't be sorry that you signed up. The projects we've exchanged in the last six months ago have been so fun to do, and the things I've gotten back from people have been amazing.

[nanners]

Sign ups are closed now. You will make 5 zentangles. Have fun!

I am getting a craft room! I have been cleaning my house like crazy with a friend who is helping me, and I have decided to turn my living room into a craft room! I never use it as a living room - we never go in there. I have a big table I'm going to put in there to work on, and all my supplies. I'm going to get a comfy desk chair for it, and a TV. I will need storage bins for all my supplies, because it's currently in shopping bags and cardboard boxes.

Does anyone who has a craft room or dedicated craft area have any advice about what else I should get or do?

[clay]

My zentangles are done, went out in mail today!!!!!

Expected delivery is Saturday, nan, so be on look out!

Thanks for doing this project.

I will PM you tracking #

You are the first, clay, AFAIK, and it serves as a swift kick in my bum to get mine done! I haven't even started, what with all the trauma, and cleaning my house. I finally got done with the house yesterday, but I have not started putting together my craft room yet. And, I am not going to delay my projects to work on the craft room because that would just be counterintuitive. I have a clean dining room table to work on now which will serve just fine!

Tracked my package. Saying was delivered 05/19/2023 @ 1016 AM. So, good to know!!

GeorgiaMa'am,
I have a 10 X 12 She Shed that was built about a year ago that was built for me. I have 5 steel shelves I bought on Amazon that are very helpful in organizing. One is for sewing, one for scrapbooking, one for card making, one for books and misc items and one for overflow. I have a pegboard with accessories I'm putting up soon (spray painted PINK!). I have an 8 ft banquet table and a 6 ft banquet table...and my shed has windows on all 4 sides, so I have ventilation and on nice days I have them open to listen to the birds.
Now it's getting hot and it's too hot to be in there, so my next expediture will be for a portable air conditioner.
I hope you have many inspirational times in your craft room!
