    If I win, I won’t have to color my four year old’s Hello Kitty pages anymore. Well both be happy!

    Yes, I would be another one of those who would definitely get out my colored pencils and frame one to hang in my 1959 ranch style rambler. I am doing a bit of retro renovating myself, would greatly appreciate these books!

    As an art educator, I feel crayons, and the benefit of coloring books, are overlooked. Both contributed to my becoming an artist. I would color, mat and frame the pages and hang them in my mid-century home!

    Love the stain glass idea. Might not color them. The designs are classic enough without adding color in my humble opinion.

    winters are long and cold where I live in Canada, I could color it away…………I have it all, wax crayons, pencil crayons, pastels, I’m ready to color.

    These mid-century designs are amazing…I teach Stained Glass classes to College Students and people in our local community and these designs would be wonderful to use for Stained Glass patterns. (Lots of room for creative reuse of “wonderful designs from the past”).

  9. Carolyn says

    Yes, yes, yes! I would color these! I love to color and do so with my 3 year old granddaughter all the time. . .she has her book and I have mine. Besides that, I love anything & everything midcentury.

    Actually, I’m thinking of projecting one or two designs on my living room wall and painting it on there.
