    Add me to the list!! Yay for Michaels!
    I planned on using a 40% coupon they always have online but it doesn't apply to books, so I got watercolor pencils for $7! I am excited to have something to do when I am bored/watching TV other than messing with my phone. Reminds me of how my Papa used to do crosswords and my mom embroidered with the tv on in the background.

    @wheres_c: nice job! @Sweet T: those are awesome! I love the first one. I've done a few of those pages as well, it's cool to see how people do them differently.

    50 pack from crayola for pencil crayons & I just ordered staedler markers today.

    Went & bought secret garden today since I had a 10$ off coupon from buying enchanted forest last week (which I did with a gift card, so boo yah). I've also strongly hinted that i should find the oceans one under the Christmas tree this year

    @simplyfelicity: I got Raffine color pencils. They had really good reviews and I got 72 for $35. They are listed on amazon under Ohuhu i think.

    @NCSUchick27: great job! I almost picked that one last night but went with another one instead. It's so hard to choose, all of the pages are so cool!

    @simplyfelicity: most of them are from Enchanted Forest by Johanna Basford. The hippo is from Animal Kingdom by Millie Marotta. I've been using crayola colored pencils.

    @Bao: thanks! I love seeing how others color them too. I've been checking out the hashtags on IG. Some people are amazingly talented!

    @abbydabbydoodlebug: @Mrs.KMM: thanks! I love how they've been turning out.

    @NCSUchick27: I looked at that one last night!

    @Peasinapod: I just bought the same book. I looked at the secret garden one but I liked that the mindful colouring book had so many repetitive patterns. When I doodle, I doodle in a similar style, so it spoke to me. Lol.

    Here's my second one! The colors are a little more vibrant in person. Don't know why it isn't coming through in the photo.

    @Bao: thanks! I love how bright yours are, must be the markers vs pencils!

    I'm obsessing over all these! I really can't get enough of everyone's finished pictures.

    I'm spending every night winding down with one of these pages and it's been awesome! I'm loving seeing everyone's colouring pages!! Once I finish this book, in definitely going big and getting either Secret Garden or Enchanted Forest.

    @gentlelunette: what are you using to color? It's super vibrant. And what book is that?

    I love this thread so much! DH ended up getting me two books from the Creative Colouring for Grown Up series - Glorious Gardens, and Vintage Patterns. I love them both so much! I was going to get Staedtler markers and pencils, but then found some slightly cheaper ones that looked pretty good and I've been happy with them. I can't decide if I like markers or pencils better!

    Here is my first nearly finished product, done in pencil obviously:

    @Aria: @Ree723: @gentlelunette: love those!

    I finished my third this morning, only because DH took DD to church because I'm recovering from food poisoning. Ugh.
