Here’s a Saturday morning treat for you!
‘Nzeppel is one of my personal “mac ‘n’ cheese” tangles. It’s so easy to do, there’s no thinking involved, and it always gives interesting results.
Today Maria’s daughter and CZT Molly Hollibaugh is going to share her fun way to tangle this tangle.
Sakura of America and Molly got together to create this video (2:14) with Molly demonstrating “Crazy ‘Nzeppel” as a promotion for the 12-piece Zentangle Tool Set.
The 12-piece tool set from a Sakura and Zentangle collaboration contains black Sakura Micron 01, 03, 05, 08 and Graphic 1 pens, a Zentangle pencil, a tortillion, and five original white Zentangle tiles.
For future reference this video can also be found on the original “How to draw ‘Nzeppel” page.

I really enjoyed the video – inspiring and soothing at the same time. Thank you!
Thanks for posting that, Linda! ‘Nzeppel is one of my favorites & I love watching Molly draw her “crazy” version. Do you know if that 12-piece set is or will be available on zentangle.com?
Fun stuff. Inspiring to go play with nzeppel some more. Not one I have used very much.
