Free Printable Coloring Pages for Adults

Sharing is caring!

Coloring pages for adults have been growing in popularity lately – and I’m not surprised! I’ve always loved detailed coloring, and used to doodle complex designs and fill them in myself. 

I was really pleased when Skyhorse Publishing contacted me to offer my readers some free samples from their new series of travel-friendly adult coloring books. 

Disclaimer: I received a free product in exchange for the review of the book within this post. The rest of the post I am sharing with you, simply because I wanted to bring this great asset to my readers! All opinions are my own and were not influenced by the receipt of a sample.

These four free printable coloring pages for adults come from their four new books. 

I loved coloring them, and found it so relaxing.

I was recently chatting with my Nutrimom coach, and discussing different ways that I can relieve some of my stress. As a work-at-home-mom I tend to spend my entire day from the moment I wake up working on the blog, and various blog-related tasks. At the same time, I chase my stay-at-home-toddler (I send him to a babysitter four hours a week) and I also take care of the house, with no outside help (other then my husband, of course). 

I felt that I had already cut back too many blogging hours, and it wasn’t quiet helping my stress and allowing me to sleep. My coach suggested I take on a hobby.

Well, if you’ve been following along, you know that I craft plenty – but when you craft for your job, it simply doesn’t have the same relaxing benefit as crafting for a hobby. 

Then, I tried out these free printable coloring pages for adults. 

Because they are repetitive and detailed, you can really unwind with them. There is no pressure for a positive outcome – and the main goal is the process itself!

So, here ya go – I’m so excited to be sharing this with you! It’s a great way for moms to unwind after a long day, for students to unwind after the pressure faced in school, and for teens to unwind from the social and academic pressure. I hope you all enjoy it!

4 FREE PRINTABLE COLORING PAGES FOR ADULTS: 

• You can download the ZIP file with all four free printable coloring pages for adults here. 
• My favorite equipment for coloring are thin Staedler markers. I have this set, but the truth is, some of the narrower areas came out messy. I used to have a set like this that would have been perfect. I also enjoy using my PrismaColor colored pencils, and Sharpies – especially for larger areas. 
• Set yourself up in a comfortable place and color! I sit on the couch with coffee, and a large hardcover children’s book that belongs to my son. 
• Relax! Don’t worry about how it comes out! The main point is to enjoy yourself.

You have free sample page each from the following books: Calming Patterns, Flying Wonders, Natural Wonders (which I have reviewed below), and Sea Life.

Did you love it? 

Here’s my review of the actual book: Natural Wonders. 

Natural Wonders is a hardcover book, full of detailed pages around the same theme: nature. It has 75  detailed patterns (120 pages). Some pages were more detailed than others. 

To me, this is a huge advantage, as sometimes you DON’T feel like going overboard on the detail. 

The pages take a long time to color – making each one a continuous project. 

A few points to note:

• It’s a “hardcover” book – however it doesn’t have a traditional wrap-bound cover. It seems like printed cardboard. I’m guessing this helps keep the price relatively low, while still allowing for a hard cover to protect your hard work.

• It is marketed as a portable book. This is relative. It’s not a huge coloring book, but it’s hardly a travel size either. Dimensions are: 8.4 x 6.5 x 0.5 inches. This can be good, bad, or something in the middle, depending on what you need it for.
• The paper is thick and did not leech at all when I used colored pencils or Staedler markers. I have not yet tried it with Sharpies. 
• The print reaches the edge of the page – with no bleed. 

• It has various levels of difficulty – from beginner to advanced. It wasn’t necessarily in that order, though. The best way to use it was to flip through, and chose a page I liked. I was definitely pulled toward these flowers!

I hope you enjoyed these free printable coloring pages for adults!
