    You bet I’d color in these books! It would give me ideas for creating my own craft and needlework projects.

  2. Anna says

    I would love to color in them with vintage watercolor pencils from my mothers art school days in the ’70s!

  3. Lynne says

    Even after all these years, what could be better than a fresh coloring book and opening a brand new box of sharp, pristine, Crayola 64’s?

  5. Ashley says

    Oh, these babies would be for me, definitely. I won’t even let my husband near them! In fact, I’ll probably go buy a brand new set of colored pencils just so I have nice sharp points to start coloring!

  6. Janet French says

    Heck yes I’d color them myself & then promptly hang them in a frame & display the art! Cool stuff from Jenn Ski.

  8. Christopher says

    These coloring books are a really great idea! I’d love to see some of these pages scanned into a computer so you could Photoshop in your Pantone colors before painting your next project. Does a Harvest Gold stove go with avocado cabinets? Let’s break out the coloring books and find out!

    Oh, no, these are for me. My two year old is getting nowhere near them…until he’s not so tear-happy, at least!

    I would love to color in these books! I’ve got my colored pencils sharpened & crayons at the ready. (You know what they used to say in those old tv westerns: “Draw, partner!”)
