Product Description:
A modern spin on an ancient symbol of design For centuries, people of almost every culture—from the Navajos to the Hindus to the Celts—have used the mandala as a form of creative expression. A sacred symbol meaning "universe" or "wholeness," the mandala is a complex circular image that uses patterns and geometric designs to draw the eye to its center, creating an appeal that's almost hypnotic. In this gorgeous collection of mandala patterns for stained glass, ninety-nine royalty-free images present pure inspiration for a variety of projects, including window panes, sun catchers, and other works of art.
