Design Originals Books are great to own. They are crammed full of wonderful projects, great directions-some
in step-by-step picture format, a materials list and great finished project photos. I keep my own little log of
Design Originals Books with me that I take to the store so I don't duplicate a book I already have at home. Each Design
Originals book is numbered and I have included the number so that you can check your own stock to make sure you don't duplicate.
If you do-it will still make a prized gift for your fellow artist. I have found most of the projects to be pretty
simple, but the finished product is just elegant. You will never be at a loss for a great project with Design Originals books.
Design Originals Book, Zentangle Basics #3450, New for 2010~This is a hot new craze. I first saw
it 2 years ago at a store owner class and one of the gals had a little book full of these- it was gorgeous. Now it seems
it has hit main stream. Zentangle has been shown to help reduce stress & improve focus. This relaxing process
turns simple patterns into works of at. It can be done anywhere and with minimal tools and no artistic talent is needed-
although I want to stress- we all have artistic talent but it is like a muscle and has to be exercised to be brought to life!!
Just remember......Articus Studio "pumps YOU up"! There is no limit to creativity with this fun art.

assortment of projects are: transparencies; great ideas for using slide mounts, even covering with copper; tag
journals and learning how to create stunning collages. This book is sort of hard to describe because most all the projects
