There IS more than one reason.

More than one reason to wear an apron, that is.  Sometimes you just don't have enough hands and you gotta have things handy. You don't wanna be pulling a wagon behind you, and you certainly know running back and forth for stuff won't do. So what's a girl to do? Get an apron. An apron with lots of pockets. It might look like this one has four, but it really has nine. When I sewed the pocket section on, I made one section three pockets deep and the others two sections deep. I think this will make it easy to get around the room with pens, pencils, tiles, all the stuff I'll need when teaching the next Zentangle classes. I knew a regular plain white canvas apron just wouldn't do. So, yep, I think this is gonna be the ticket. 
Ok, update, I woke up this morning and it was looking a little top heavy, and even though I purposed did this to show full coverage tangling and not, I decided to add a little something to the bottom. Here is what it looks like now.

Class Announcement: Zentangle for Beginners

I've been continuing to get requests from people that want a Zentangle® class that "starts at the beginning," so I am going to try to do the beginners' class a little more often. Zentangle for Beginners is designed for people who are new at this fabulous art form, and want to start off slow and build some confidence to know the basics of drawing, shading, and materials selection. We're gonna do all that and have some fun along the way. These are examples of what we do in class. Below are the details on how YOU can catch this class.
Zentangle for Beginners: $30.  UPDATE: due to circumstances beyond my control, this class has been postponed. I hope to be able to reschedule it in about 8 weeks.
