Being an adult is stressful. Being a woman is even more difficult. We have a range of emotions that we barely understand ourselves and sometimes our stress levels are through the roof. I think we all have those days. How do you relieve your stress? Some sit back with a nice glass of wine, kick off their heels, and listen to soft music. Some women clean to destress. I'm a little different. Clutter keeps me sane. I'm an artist, so it's expected, right? In the mix of my crazy clutter you are guaranteed to find pens, colored pencils, crayons and coloring books – adult coloring books.
What are adult coloring books? They are basically a more advanced, detailed, and relaxing versions of coloring books. Children's coloring books have cartoon characters, funny images, and animals. Adult coloring books have nature scenes, complex artistry, funky designs, and so much more. You can expect a little bit of everything in adult coloring books. These are the perfect way to take your mind off of the every day stresses, abandon all responsibilities, and color like it's your life's purpose.
There are so many different adult coloring books floating around these days, so I want to tell you about a few that I personally love and recommend. There are links to purchase them and even a few pages that you can download and print for free right at home!

The Enchanted Forest
Purchase Here / Papyrus – $15.95
This one is a bit more pricey, but it's well worth it. The cover is very nice. It's made with a nice cardstock type of paper, makign it long-lasting and easy to keep forever. Not only are there pages to color, there's a fun game inside. The pages contain specific details like bunnies, flowers, etc. The front of the book tells you how many bunnies (and other items) the book has and it's your job to spot them all. The coloring pages are incredible. They really are enchanting. This is my favorite adult coloring book to travel with because it's fun and well-made.
Beautiful on its own, the intricately-realized world of Enchanted Forest is both gorgeous and inspirational. This coloring book includes 84 pages.
These are just a few of my favorites! There will be more to come, so keep checking back 🙂
