Paper Crafts: Rockcandy Tangle
20 kudoz

Rockcandy Tangle

Is this your project? Can you share instructions or a pattern with the Craftsy community?

Difficulty:

Category: Paper Crafts

Type of item: Home Decor

For: Home

Style: Whimsical, Funky, Mod


Materials

micron pens, colored pencils and a rubber eraser

What was your inspiration?

I read something on the internet about challenging yourself to draw a blind string and I liked that idea so much that I tried it. You close your eyes, put pencil to paper and draw a swirly type line until you feel like stopping. Then, when I was deciding where to go with it, my daughter said the word 'rockcandy' and so that was my inspiration. =-)

What are you most proud of?

I love the greens in this piece.

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

This is just something that came out of my noggin from drawing a random blind string. Give it a try for yourself! =-)

This is very pretty, hard to believe it was done with your eyes closed,

Only the starting string is done with eyes closed. The string is the squiggly starting line of a tangle. Once that's done then you of course have to use your eyes to finish it. :-)
