This is a great little book! As well as beautiful designs, it has
great guides for choosing your stones, selecting tools and
materials, painting techniques, and creating your own designs.
Perfect for beginners, but still plenty to offer those with
experience.
*Customer Review*
This book it a work of art! I loved looking through the different
designs. The colours and art work are truly fantastic. It made me
very inspired to try it myself, which I did! It was lots of fun
trying some of the suggested ideas and teqniques from the many
wonderful ones shown and explained in the book. The author goes
into great detail into the designs and teqniques she has used which
make it easy to follow. I only had basic acrylic paints and brushes
and I produced a few designs I didn't think I'd be capable of, I
even had my children involved. My 11 year old daughter found it
very interesting and took time to study the book to get some ideas
of what she wanted to paint. Fantastic book for any craft lover to
have on their book shelf to look through over and over again as I
will do!

This is a beautiful book. It went into much greater detail than I
expected from a book about painting stones. The book starts with a
detailed history and explanation of mandalas and then talks you
through tools materials and patterns. Each design has clear easy to
follow step by step instructions. Projects are ranked by skill
level so this book would suit a complete beginner to someone more
experienced. I am already gathering supplies to begin creating my
own mandala stones. The book would make a lovey gift as would the
finished stones.

An amazing book, full of so many creative designs. So easy to
follow and look so detailed. My daughter is 11 and able to follow
the designs well. She feels so proud of herself. Would
recommend

This book is bursting with ideas and tips on how to paint your own
mandala stones. Given that I live near a beach this is something
I've often fancied trying but didn't know where to start and the
finished products make lovely gifts or decoration for the garden.
Mandala Stones book is an item I think would make a perfect gift
for anyone looking to take up a new hobby or who is interested in
arts and crafts, it's even great for children (although some of the
designs would need some practice for younger children). I've no
doubt I'll be spending many a summer with my son looking for the
perfect stones to paint.

Autumn 2017, Issue 3 What a great book! It's full of colour and a
nice fairly big format. Basically find your stone (larger than a
pebble would be great), ask permission (check the local regulations
and check with the stone!) then paint a simple but beautiful design
on it and place it on display, or on your altar. You are given
guidance on all the materials and tools required: the author then
gives us 50 designs with plans on how to approach creating them.
For example there's a Lightburst and Fibonacci Glow - they're not
as intricate as buddist mandalas but they are all basically
circular and very pleasing on the eye.
