For crafters, painters, and practitioners of mindfulness or meditation of all ages, this book provides 50 different patterns to paint on to mandala stones. Mandala stones are round, smooth river stones that have been worn down by erosion over time and painted with intricate patterns as part of a meditation practice. Through the action of painting the stones, you can allow your mind to become clear and focus only on the simple action of creating the pattern. Even the most complex designs in this book are accessible to the layperson, as each stone is simply made by dabbing dots of color on to the stones and each design included in this book has step by step instructions and clear and detailed photographs to aid in the process. A great gift for your crafty friends, or for yourself, this book will help you create beautiful artwork on stones that can be displayed in your garden or themselves given as gifts.
