Decades. I'm not positive, but I think I got them at an office supply store.<br />Yes!! Some of the packaging they have these days would be hard for Houdini to open--LOL! <br />I'd love to have a tiny square like she has. I'll have to keep my eyes open. ;)Ritahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02043285884495492598noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29503764.post-34353948958144001402011-11-18T03:28:25.629-06:002011-11-18T03:28:25.629-06:00I'm a little behind on blog reading.

Just wondering because I have the same one! I looked all over town for a square like she had but that was all I found. It came in this cute triangle shaped plastic package and I thought I could keep it in there (you know how I like boxes - I like all kinds of packaging I guess) well I thought I was going to break it trying to get it out! You know those girls that look like they had to greese up their bodies and lay down on the bed to get their jeans on... well I think that's what they had to do to get that ruler in that package! Anyway, I'm glad you're doing it to so we can compare notes!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29503764.post-26183206966577696032011-11-16T15:43:02.271-06:002011-11-16T15:43:02.271-06:00Serena--Freehand sounds like a plan for my little ...Serena--Freehand sounds like a plan for my little doodle book. :)<br />No pattern? Are you talking about the zentangle versions of a mandala?<br />I just asked on the website how are we supposed to transfer that template onto watercolor paper? <br />I'm not sure how she drew the template with a protractor? Anyways, the painting part looks fun if I can figure out how to get the drawing on to the watercolor paper! :):)Ritahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02043285884495492598noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29503764.post-66840254396592382032011-11-16T15:24:50.334-06:002011-11-16T15:24:50.334-06:00That freehand way is the technique I've always...That freehand way is the technique I've always used for my previous mandalas too...starting at centre and working outwards.

There's a free-hand way where you start in the center and work your way out and that would be prefect for my little doodle book! :):)<br />So glad your migraine let up, lady! Be well!! Hugs!! :):)<br /><br />Betty--This mandala class is a fun class already because you just get a start and then can run with it to make your own any way you want.

I will visit your blog. :):)<br /><br />AliceKay--Yes, Karma loves anything at all that looks like or reminds her of string. Dagan finally got a pair of shoes without shoe laces--LOL! She's chewed through several pairs of shoelaces. And she's fast! ;)<br /><br />laughingmom--Oh, are you going to join, too! Cool!!

You could probably manage more simple mandalas in your doodle book. <br /><br />I always work my mandalas freehand so I found working with a compass a little difficult and limiting. I did enjoy the process tho. I'm going to play a little more when I get home from Michelle's place this afternoon.<br /><br />Good that you managed 8 hours of sleep yesterday. <br /><br />It sounds like you have quite a few crafty ideas up your sleeve. Lots of fun!<br /><br />Have a lovely evening,<br />Serena xoSerena Lewishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17789734075055678964noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29503764.post-16249883278385005492011-11-15T12:54:16.358-06:002011-11-15T12:54:16.358-06:00Sounds like you're having fun! :)
