    I am sharpening my colored pencils as we speak!! I would not only color them, but I would frame them and display my favorites in my home.

    Are you kidding? Of course I’d LOVE to get my hands on these!

    I was one of ‘those’ kids who colored in the lines very neatly. It used to annoy quite a few of my friends because it wasn’t something I concentrated on, it just happened. lol

    I’m still artistic in other ways (paper arts, jewelry making), but it would be fun to go back to a coloring book and the more simplistic nature of where color began for most of us.

    I am 42 years old and I color frequently as a stress reliever. It works. I would so use these and then frame the pics!

    I’ve already shared the post from yesterday on my Facebook page and let everyone know that I want these for Christmas. I would definitely color in them and I might even share with my co-workers. Last Christmas we kept a coloring book at the front desk and it was a lot of fun.

    Coloring is one of my favorite things to do! I just took advantage of back to school sales to get new crayons and markers. I have a 1966 ranch style home I am slowly trying to transform into a 1956 – 1966 “cottage mood. I think these coloring books would make a great reference, as well as decorative touch for walls and other flat areas, like trays.

    These will be a great way to suppress my great desire to paint every room in our rental…even though we are moving on Nov. 1st!
