Adult colouring books

Anyone doing these at all?

I've just got some pens and fineliners and a few books.

I've bought animal Kingdom
Butterflies
Mindfulness colouring book

Any others you would recommend?

The Cant Sleep Colouring Book is good.

Just looking on Amazon, there are so many being released soon, from all range of genres. Anyway, I digress, I enjoy colouring. It is calming and a really good distraction. Time seems to fly by when I'm colouring.

So did my sister in law! She even went looking online! I was shocked lol.

As for the *real* adult colouring books, I'm too lazy and hopeless. But glad if they help others.

I love colouring :)

I've subscribed to the Art Therapy Collection magazines so they come in the post and come with a few pens or pencils each issue. I really like them because they have pictures to colour as well as having tips on mindfulness techniques and stuff which I really enjoy



More than a little fruity...

I like them too. There's also a cool free phone app called Colorfy which is fun and which I like to do in bed when I can't sleep.



There are, it has been said, two types of people in the world. There are those who, when presented with a glass that is exactly half full, say: 'This glass is half full'. And then there are those who say: 'This glass is half empty'.
The world belongs, however, to those who can look at the glass and say: 'What's up with this glass? Excuse me? Excuse me? This is my glass? I don't think so. My glass was full! And it was a bigger glass!

Terry Pratchett

Art Therapy Collection sounds fun. I might subscribe *when I have money*. I have one colouring book, called I Love Colouring. It's really nice and hit has pretty swirly pictures of all sorts of cute things, like birds, turtles, flowers, clothes, seashells, plants, and also mandalas. I really like it though I have to admit the colouring gets a little bit compulsive for me, like, when I start, I can't stop until I'm done...



If I only could
make a deal with God.
