Zentangles, Polymer clay and Kids


Zentangles, polymer clay, play do and kids…these are few of my favorite things.

I am out of town.  My etsy store is on vacation mode now.  But that does not mean that I am not working.  My brain and heart both are  working fine and hard .

Recently, I came across some thing called Zentangle.

What is Zentangle?   

 Some call it “The yoga of your  brain”

I like how  they define it saying - We believe that life is an art form and that our Zentangle Method is an elegant metaphor for deliberate artistry in life.

 It is doodling, but not quite.  It is deliberate, yet free, not busy work, but engaging.  Find out for yourself  searching in the internet  and then you’ll find that  you are kind of missing those 3” square papers if you are not doing it. 

And then I found another one in the web :



Here are a couple of my Zentangle art try outs 


Both my grand kids, one five year old and the other two are impressed and hooked like me.  And you can calm them easily taking out some 3” paper squares and a pen.

And here are some that my five year old grand daughter made;

My other favorite thing is playing with clay.  Recently I came across this wonderful site where I found I could transfer those zentangles on the clay, I mean polymer clay.


Isn’t it cool?

I could have my grand child draw some thing and then we could make a pendant with that.

But that did not happen yet.

Did you like  the zentangle video?  Tell me what come in your mind for a future project?
