What To Look For When Buying Adult Coloring Books

By Donna Barnes


If you are looking for a hobby that can really relax you and reduce the amount of stress you are under, you might want to try coloring. Filling in images such as those found in adult coloring books can be a great way to take your mind off of things you find difficult and allow you to relax. Here are some things to look for when buying your first book.

One thing to consider is how involved you want the images to be. Some people find images that have a number of small sections or intricate patterns to be more enjoyable. Others want simpler images that may have less detail in them. The last thing you want is to end up feeling tense because you don't want to put a lot of detail into your images.

Another thing to think about is what size of book you want to get. Coloring books come in a range of different sizes. Some are small enough to fit in a purse or laptop bag. They can be great for people who want to be able to color anywhere, even if they are on the go. Other people want images that are larger and will leave them at home. If this is the case with you a larger book may be a better idea.

Finding this type of book isn't hard. In the beginning, it was only possible to find isolated images on the internet. There were sites that you could visit that had printable pictures for coloring. Now, however, these books have become so popular that many book stores and department stores carry them as well. This makes it easy to find options to choose from even if the selection is a little overwhelming.

Smooth, thick paper will usually make for a better book but it can also increase the price. You want to make sure that you can lay down a nice layer of color when you work and smoother paper will allow you to do so more easily. If you want to make sure that the color of your crayons or markers transfers accurately, make sure you look for a book that has very white pages.

Some books have been designed so that they are easier to color. This often means that there is a flat binding. With a flat binding, both pages will fall open and lay flat on the table. Others have perforated pages so that they can be removed and colored easily. If you want to test a book, try opening it up and setting it on a flat surface. If the pages flip shut you may want to look for another book to try.

There are many things that you can use to color the images in your book. Many people like colored pencils but markers and other items can work equally well. It all depends on what you want the finished image to look like. Making sure that you use something that is capable of filling in small areas is important. The last thing you need is to become frustrated because you are not capable of working on small sections of an image.

Coloring can be a very fun way to connect with your inner child. Patterns such as mandalas can help you feel more relaxed and help you get rid of the stress of your daily grind. If you try a sample image you may just find that you have a new hobby you can enjoy no matter where you are or what is going on around you.
