Lou's Creative Thread!

[sweetiepi]

Just a thread that I'll occasionally add creative stuff to- whether it'll be drawings/zentangle pages, photos or other creative things that I'll do as a whim!
(I'm also in the process of giving my blog a massive overhaul, I'll drop the link here when I finish overhauling!)

To get started, I felt like doing some zentangling today. This isn't the best one I've ever done, but I was experimenting with different patterns.

So earlier today, my siblings and I finally put up our Christmas tree. I feel like the photo captures my sister's face when she was worried that there wouldn't be enough baubles pretty well. (I'm no photographer, and this was taken off my phone... which isn't that flash anyways )

Also I've pretty much redone my blog, although my photowall is still buggy af and everything else is pretty bare atm, here's the link! 

EDIT: Fixed typo

Literally pictures that have really cool patterns drawn into them- pretty similar to drawing a mandala! My pintrest is filled with a lot of cool and intricate zentangle/mandala for inspiration!

Zentangle is honestly. the. best. thing. ever. So relaxing - it focuses on the fact that whatever you draw, it represents your mood/emotions at the time, and there is therefore no 'messy' or 'lame' or 'wrong' drawings.
The results are amazing...i might chuck a few of mine up too

Agreed!
It is really calming!

I tried doing a mandala once, but I lost patience maybe I'll pick it up again someday!

You can either click preview and then just attach the image directly.

Alternatively (and usually preferably) you can upload to an image hosting website (such as imgur), and obtain the [img] code to copy and paste into a post
