Colorful Christmas: A Fun, Relaxing, and Stress-Relieving Coloring Book for Adults (50 Designs) (Colorful Coloring Books)
By: Anna Winky
Rating: 4 of 5
This is a coloring book of 50 Christmas designs which are done in a kaleidoscope mandala-style. There is a wide variety of designs in the book with everything I look for in traditional Christmas elements: Santa, reindeer, tin soldier, Christmas trees, dolls, lights, ornaments, bells, heralding angels and much more. This would be a good gift for someone who is new to coloring as most of the designs are open and easy to color. If I were giving it as a gift, I would include an inexpensive set of coloring pencils along with it perhaps as a Secret Santa gift.
The designs are printed on one side of thin white non-perforated paper. The book is a smaller format than most standard coloring books. Some of the lines in a few designs are printed less distinctly than in others. It seems that it might have to do with the original drawing rather than the actual printing. The binding is glued rather than sewn. The designs stop before the binding, so cutting out designs is possible without loss of any of the elements. I had problems getting this book to lay flat, so removing it from the book might be the way to go.
