If you loved playing with toys as a child; if you love to collect vintage toys and games; if you love journaling prompts to remember fond childhood memories; and if you love to color - this book is for you! This book is full of 50+ simple line drawings surrounded by fanciful borders on coloring pages that will keep you busy for weeks or months! The simple toy illustrations are hand-drawn, so the lines are organic and feel natural versus mechanically perfect. The borders were created using hand drawn lines and then a kaleidoscope program used to create the repeat patterns surrounding the drawings of toys and game. This book also includes BONUS coloring pages from the artist's other coloring books. This two-volume set of simple drawings would be an excellent gift or fun activity at nursing homes, assisted living residences, or in writing classes as a prompt for remembering toys played with as children. Who knows what other happy memories may be brought up as you color away and remember playing house next to mommy, imitating daddy, playing in the back sand lot with the neighborhood kids, and whiling away a rainy afternoon with a simple tea party? Details about the book: ** Non-perforated pages (you can use a craft knife or razor to remove them)** Glue-bound spine ** Pages are 8.5" x 11" with a half-inch margin, allowing larger 9" x 7.5" images to color** Two pages of pre-views of sample drawings in the book should be available on Amazon's "Look Between the Covers" function to see the types of illustrations in the book** The toy and game illustrations have journaling pages on the back side so colorists may wish to use crayons and colored pencils to achieve a 'vintage look' to their coloring versus wetter media such as gel pens or markers to avoid the bleed through on the journaling page.** Paper weight is the thickness of standard paper-back books; some media may bleed through (test first, back with cardboard or plastic!). An alternative would be to copy the illustrations onto your own special paper (cardstock) to enable using the wetter coloring media - markers, gel pens, water colors, or acrylics. What can you do with the book once you have finished? Once the designs in this book are colored - give the books as gifts, use pages as scrapbook background art, create greeting cards, or use the designs and use in multi-media art. Frame them and hang them in the office, classroom, or at home where the designs can continue to inspire friends, family, and co-workers. The possibilities are endless! Coloring can be cathartic for those needing something that doesn't take a lot of analysis or thought, while allowing them to pick and choose their personal colors to create an artistic masterpiece. The pages of delightful and imaginative illustrations of fairy abodes allows you to relax while you wile away the hours or the day and find peace in your own mind. How can BIG KIDS (regardless of chronological age) use this coloring book? Whether the co-artist uses crayon, marker, or colored pencil, or paints - or a combination - the beautiful results can be used to pass the time, keep your mind still, go into a personal Zen moment, use your hands in a creative way, or use for a craft project. Once the designs are colored - give the books as gifts, as scrapbook background art, or cut out designs for multi-media art. Possibilities are endless!
