Michael's has tons of books. Plus there are a lot of free down loads
that can be printed.

I bought my daughter a couple books, and printed 155 pages for
her. Also got her colored pencils, markers and a mega box of crayons.

My older teens like them and I got bought some as Christmas gifts. I think it is great that people are getting into coloring.

Yep....I sure am. I went to our place in the desert over Thanksgiving and we have no TV connection, so I colored. Got 3 pages done :). I bought the Creative Haven coloring books at Aaron Bros with my 50% off coupon (Creative Cats, Steampunk Designs, and Art Nouveau Animal Designs), got an #*$load of markers, glitter pens, pencils, and am havin' a blast. I'm even having a coloring tea party with my DD and DIL and few of friends and we're gonna color, eat, and drink wine....and maybe tea!!!

Yes, I color. It is so tranquil and habit forming. I purchased the Crayola twist up pencils and go to town. I have three books and so far the Mandala one is my favorite. I keep thinking it's going to lead to a round quilt one day.

Maybe set 'em up in the bathroom....you'll never come out.

I love to color, and wish they were not so busy. A happy medium would be between the kids coloring books and the new adult books.

This is the website that I downloaded & printed the coloring
pages.

They ALWAYS adding new pages too.

I didn't know these existed, amazing. My dad is moving into assisted living today, I'm definitely going to go out and buy some of these and some crayons. They could be an ice breaker for him and surely he'll make some friends fast. If he doesn't like them I'm sure someone else will.

There just doesn't seem to be any quiet time for me. I have a lot of colored pencils that I used to color the quilt patterns when I ran out of color ink on the printer.

so nice to come back to this thread and see we have a fellowship here we didn't know about before.
