You’re absolutely right. That IS the way to do it. I’ve had people try to convince me otherwise, but know that’s 100% right.

I’ve always loved to color – even though I don’t do it often. Your post has prompted me to put my prisma color pencils in plain sight where I’ll be reminded to stop, breath ….and maybe color too.

@ Allison, Eva, and TheRachel: Sorry it’s taken me a bit to get back to this question! I actually just Google the types of pages I want to find. So far I’ve stuck to flowers, so I Google Image search “flower coloring pages” and print the ones I like.

I was never a great artiste, but for some reason, I have that same box of prismacolors in my office still (even though I’m 26). I am as curious as the rest of these folks – where do you download the coloring sheets?

We always take colouring-in away on our family holidays – even though we are now all ‘adults’…I also would love to know where you have downloaded such beautiful colouring pages from.

I was just telling my husband that I miss coloring. I have no natural ability to draw or paint, but I find coloring so very soothing. My friends and I used to color in college, and those are some of my best memories.

Jess… LOVE this! Coloring is such a great activity! I should do it with my kids more! I remember in high school sitting at the kitchen table with my mom coloring we were by most accounts “too old” to color. But it was soothing for us and a great way to connect. For me the activity is knitting. I often tie my emotions to the outcome, but have been better about doing it for the activity. Now I have a bin of mishapen sweaters that I have knit in the basement. I can’t part with them, but they aren’t really wearable. The hours that the yarn “soothed” me though is inmeasurable!
