Adult Coloring Book: Stress Relieving Patterns (Adult Coloring Books Best Sellers) by Blue Star Coloring

Adult Coloring Book: Stress Relieving Patterns (Adult Coloring Books Best Sellers) by Blue Star Coloring is Love it! Bought a handful of books as I'm just now getting into coloring. I almost didn't get this book, thinking I'd like the others better. This has instantly became my favorite! Different levels of detailing from page to page so that you have options to fit your mood. Pages thick enough to use gel pens and not bleed through to the next page. LOTS of pages, so many to choose from. Book has easily 2 to 3 times more pages than other books I've bought. Interesting, different patterns. I'm posting two photos. First photo has more intricate detailing and is the first page I completed in the book (used gel pens). Second photo is of a work in progress with colored pencils.

Adult Coloring Book: Stress Relieving Patterns (Adult Coloring Books Best Sellers) by Blue Star Coloring is I purchased the Stress Relieving Patterns Adult Coloring Book based on the plethora of positive reviews - I haven't been disappointed. It has a generous number of images (46), all on super bright white paper ranging from intermediate to advanced patterns. Every image was centered just right on their pages.It's not exactly for beginners, which you can see from the first image I have posted (I'm semi-new to adult coloring books), but with patience and practice, this book is well worth the investment. The paper is a bit thin compared to others I have, however each page is one-sided so either tearing out the page or placing a blank piece of paper between the pages prevents the dreaded ink bleed-through. I have had great success using my Sharpie Ultra-Fine Point markers and Crayola colored pencils in this book.Two improvements I would like to see are thicker paper and perforated pages.Most importantly of all, it has been an integral part of keeping my anxiety and depression at bay. As a matter of fact, I took this book with me on a visit to see my in-laws, and the next thing I knew, four family members came to the table and asked if they, too, could color. It was nice to see everyone enjoying themselves and having pleasant conversation at the same time. I left the book on the table the whole week so everyone could use it whenever they felt the need.

Adult Coloring Book: Stress Relieving Patterns (Adult Coloring Books Best Sellers) by Blue Star Coloring is We place adult coloring books in the waiting room of the hospital area in which I work. We've just added this one to our library and I'm a huge fan of the designs. Patients and their families can color in the books while waiting and easily rip out the pages if they want to take their artwork home with them, or they can leave it for other people to admire or add to. We've occasionally get people mentioning how much they enjoyed using the books but what really speaks for itself is how quickly they get completely used up!

Adult Coloring Book: Stress Relieving Patterns (Adult Coloring Books Best Sellers) by Blue Star Coloring is The patterns are nice, challenging and at the same time also relaxing. Definitely zen-ish.But I do have major issues with this coloring book. First, the paper is thin. Can’t use colored markers because they bleed easily.The pages are not perforated so you can’t tear the page off and color on a flat surface like most of the coloring books I’ve bought (for much less mulah, I might add).And worst of all, some of the designs go all the way to the book binding, making it impossible to reach even with a fine point marker! Kind of ruins the coloring experience when you can’t color the entire design. If you have any level of OCD, this coloring book is not for you.Other than that, the designs are great....aaand that’s the one star it deserved.
