What a fun trip we have had traveling with you all down Zentangle's memory lane. This metaphorical high-way abounds with the inspiring individual creative contributions of amazing Zentangle enthusiasts from across the globe.

Each and every one of you has contributed something no one else could. All of us are grateful that you are a part of this extended Zentangle family. We are "over the moon" excited to see what Zentangle's future brings us.

As we meet you, through letters, in person, or via tangles, you inspire us to do what we do. Every bit of it is dear to our hearts. Thank you for sharing with us and each other. 

We are grateful for our Zentangle past, we embrace our Zentangle present, and we invite you to join us for our Zentangle future.

  • I enjoyed every day during this lovely trip, full of new experiences for us tanglers. I wanna thank the whole family for their gorgeous demonstrations and I’m so glad to be a little part of this great Zentanglecommunity which gave me already so many beautiful, relaxing moments…

  • What I enjoyed most about this series was the sharing if wonderful, useful, and beautiful ideas.

  • Merry Happy This Time of Year to you all! I loved all of the projects days, and while I haven’t had a chance to actually jump in and do much, I think my favorite day was 9 with the 2-color Bijous. I must say I am loving the project packs! I have bought both, and although I have all of the different tiles and things here (I do love variety LOL!) I find it nice to have everything I need in a pack when I sit down with the videos. I hope you continue with these, they are wonderful. I must tell you though, that I think the best part was the feeling of being back at seminar with your lovely voices explaining how/why you do things and allowing us to come along for the ride. I always find I enjoy a tangle much more after watching/hearing your thoughts on them. MUCH better than step-outs!! Thank you again for the few minutes of quiet during each evening of this busy season.

  • I honestly can’t pick a favorite project; I want to try them all. However, I must have been most impressed by the ninth day’s tutorial, where the two colors of tiles were spliced together. I don’t have any Bijou tiles on hand, so I cut some of my regular sized tiles to make up a few spliced tiles. And I love Molly’s tree so well that I cut a sheet of watercolor paper into triangular tiles for use in that project too. As I watched each day’s video(s) I made a list of the tangles used with the intention of making monotangles of each tangle I have not yet tried.

  • I enjoyed each day! I looked forward to the meditation, learning, and lovely materials. Day 2’s project especially delighted; the 3D aspect pushed my brain in another dimension- and that was just fun! I created ornaments with day 2, and began planning gifts for next Christmas based on this concept. I loved the virtual classroom at home- felt so intimate and warm. The online look at all the other projects felt like being in a live class without the travel and time challenges. Loved the first project pack, but I liked that this one was longer with the creative glue/stick/cut projects. Looking forward to #3.

  • Thank you for twelve special days. All have been joyful and my favorite was…

    ALL of them!

    Nancy Lively White on

  • Thank you for the 12 days. Revisiting and reworking the basics on Day 1 was really fun. It prompted new ways of doing things. Thank you!!

    Edwin on

  • I have enjoyed all of the 12 day’s projects you have shown!! Thank you so much for taking the time!!

    Deborah on

  • Having to pick one is really hard! The tie is between Rumpus on day 3 with the ‘enthatching’ and day 4 with Diva Dance. Both versions being brought together with lovely ‘sproings’.
    I had to decide these were my top choices because my post cards and envelopes are now embellished with these!
    Thank you for the delightful (but brief) journey! Looking forward to next year already!
    Hmmmm…how about 12 ZT days in July?
    Hugs! :)

  • Well, I’d have to say the Eighth Day of Zentangle was in my top Twelve days of Zentangle. There is just something about crowns I love. And having Bijou involved was the best ! I want to dress my dining table with these gorgeous conversation starters. Thank you so very much for all these great videos ! ! !

    Jackie on

  • Thank you for giving me a reason to tangle despite the busy-ness of the season! My favorite day was 11 because I love the stars we created.

    Donna Pilato on

  • I love how each day was so different! The ideas stretched me to think in new ways to create Zentangle projects! Thank you! A very Merry Christmas to you all!

    LInda JF on

  • LOL! Your chorus was entertaining! Thank you for the most wonderful gift of Zentangle. I could tell you of all the special moments that Zentangle has blesser me with, but you have heard them all before… just know that this gift has changed my life in many ways! Mostly small, yes, but with large impact!

    Debra Myers, CZT on

  • Thank you, I enjoyed spending these quiet moments every day during the busy holiday season. Every day was a treat. It was great to try out all the different tiles and all the various pens, and new ways to combine tiles, and bonus new tangles. Also, involving your whole family, and sharing your holiday season with us was really special. All the best to you over the season, and in 2018.

    Lorna Roberts on

  • While I haven’t tried any (yet) I have really enjoyed watching the videos and the work everyone has done! January project….trying the 12 days! :)

    Tina on

  • I enjoyed all of the 12 days as they stretched me and encouraged me to use and try tangling in a different way. I especially liked 3, 5, 7, and 12. Thanks for all you do and have a very merry Christmas and blessings for the New Year!

    Priscilla DeConti on

  • I have loved all the 12 days of Zentangle, from learning three new tangles to all the great ideas. But my favorite would have to be the black and white. A very Merry Christmas to all and have a wonderful New Year. I look forward to more from you in your new blog.

    Phyllis Carter on

  • The possibilities are truly endless! Combining tiles into new shapes is exciting. Thank you for these 12 inspirational days!

    Laura Oldham on

  • Combining the tiles on the ninth day was my favorite, a must do with my class. All the days have been wonderful and I will go back and do redos. The project pack-a luxury-was so nice to have.

    Karen Rushton on

  • Heartfelt thanks for teaching us so much over these 12 days of Zentangle video series.

    My favorites were day 10: using Paradox as a Reticula because I like the possibilities of this technique and I like grid patterns.

    Another favorite was day 9, using two bijou tiles to make a tandem tile. Again, the countless possibilities appeal to me as a crafter.

    And the other favorite, was day 3, learning about the new Rumpus pattern. Seeing the Zendalas that Maria tangled were breathtaking!

    Thank you to each of you and thanks for your kind words to the Zentangle community in today’s post.
    We all appreciate you. Happy holidays!

    Nancy CZT18 on

  • I love them all but particularly the second day of Christmas it took me back to when I first started tangling, clean and pure lines, I love it. Thank you so much for your inspiration to grow this art.

    Christine Jasper on

  • Thank you for a wonderful year of teaching and inspiration!

    Valerie Hess on

  • I have some catching up to do but of the ones I’ve completed so far, day 5 was my favorite. With day 5, I felt the most out of my comfort zone but just followed along with Maria and in the end loved the result. Thank you for the 12 days of challenges; I learned a lot!

    AndreaR on

  • Again, happy holidays and a very happy new year!

    Andrea on

  • Thanks so much for 12 days of fun. I’ll post what I’ve done when I can get the technology figured out. My favorite project was Day 5 because it’s the one that came out best. But my favorite parts were learning three great new tangles (rumpus, toodles and scena) and lots of tips for enhancements and embellishments. Happy holidays, all!
