There are good days and then there are days I’m not so thrilled about. On my good days, everything is great. I have slept through the night and I am full of energy. I get things done like a pro. But on those other days…the ones I’m not super thrilled about, I just want to curl up in a corner and stay there till it’s bedtime again.
Up until recently, my strategy for those days was to do as little as possible and just wait for the day to end. But, much to my delight, I came to the realization that I possess an amazing superpower. Now whenever a blah day rears its ugly head, I whip out my secret weapons – a Bijou tile, a pen, pencil and tortillon. I take a deep breath and put pen to paper. Well…what can I say except Zentangle Zindabad!!!
Much to my delight, I discovered Inktober Tangles this year and I am absolutely loving it so far. I decided to do the challenges on Bijou tiles. It’s a lot less space to fill , a lot less time consuming and as a result a lot less reason to procrastinate. There were a couple of prompt lists floating around on the myriad Facebook Zentangle groups that I am now a part of. I couldn’t decide which one I wanted to follow. So I combined the first two lists that I stumbled upon to create little bijou duotangles. Here’s a collection, which will be updated with new tiles every week, of my InktoberTangles2017 tiles – a tile a day for all of October..
UPDATE: As you can see, I am playing catch-up with Inktober Tangles. I have 2 more tiles to go and I’ll (hopefully) have it done by tomorrow.
