If you haven’t heard by now, coloring books are no longer just for kids! The adult coloring trend took off due to the popularity of Joanna Basford’s best-selling The Secret Garden, but today you can find books with almost any theme imaginable. You can color pretty mandalas, steampunk fashion, or images from your favorite TV show. I review my favorites on this site, but the sky’s the limit!

For me, the appeal of adult coloring is that it’s a simple activity bringing back happy childhood memories. I love to color while watching TV, working primarily in markers and gel pens. It’s also a very affordable hobby, especially if you start with free coloring books and sample pages and search for coupons and sales to save you a bit of money on your purchases.
