Creating Zentangles and Doodle Art, Abstract Art and Gifts for Inspiration

Hello Everyone!

I thought today I'd share a few resources I've come across that might help you if you are into or want to learn to create Zentangles and Doodle Art. Not sure what Zentangles are? You can start with  Zentangle and then use Google and YouTube to fall down the rabbit hole with all the wonderful resources.


Five simple and easy Zentangle patterns to start with.

Signed books, Thankfully Creative ways to Donate to Charity

Thankfully Creative ways to say thanks

MY girls got to get an autograph and give a drawing to one of their favorite children's writer's today. My mom and sister came along and my mom says she had a great time even better than the kids. The kids had a great time. My oldest who hates to draw drew a cute drawing to give to the author.

Thankfully Creative ways to Donate to Charity

Giving Ideas

1. Many of your local charities might be in need of free volunteer work.

2. Purchasing from charity thrift stores. You save money plus a % of the money you spend helps people.

3. Donating clean used items to thrift stores.

4. You could get together with other people and donate $5 a month each to a local charity. Micro loans, for small business and education work better when you want to donate to other countries. This is so the money goes not to a bunch of overhead but to people wanting to change their lives.

5. http://www.thehungersite.com

6. Your own churches or community centers might have great ways for you to donate.

7. Charity gumball machines.

8.Make a self help article to help people save money. Thankfully Creative ways to say thanks

1. Make a homemade card

2. Buy them a piece of art

3. Take them out to eat at a mom and pop café or restaurant. 4. Just call them up and say thanks.

Transform Your Life Through Giving Transform through Giving this lens' photo A couple of very popular and old abundance book gave information that charitable work brought no good outcome. Studies show that people who give are more successful.

Feel better You can feel better about yourself by helping others Is a person who thinks only about themselves someone you want to know? Would you rather know someone who gives? It could be giving some money to your church's food pantry.

Thankful Moments, Gifts for Girls who love Stickers

Thankful Moments,

I am thankful for , for my marriage, for my children, for love and hope. I am thankful for church, for art, for water, for faith.

Gifts for girls who love Stickers

Stickers as gifts just rock. They are small, cheap and fun. They can have pictures of more expensive popular toys on them. They can be collectable. I loved stickers that told me I did a good job. I loved pretty stickers. I loved starch and sniff stickers as child. I would get a thrill every time I got them. Stickers don't have to be for kids either. They can be for moms and dads too. (If you're buying stickers for anyone you have to make sure they are age appropriate. Some stickers can be chocking hazards for very small children. They can be sticky so make sure they aren't stick where you don't want them to be.
