  • A look at the poor sad lonely books that I haven't shown any love to during last year, but I'd like to work in this year. If I can get to the end of the year and I've completed a page in each of these I'll be delighted.
    Hope there is something to interest you,
    Do you have a favourite in these books?
    Best Wishes
    Wendy, x

    I found a site for used coloring books and I ordered duplicates of a few of my books that I don’t want to ruin, but now I have so many books I’m almost overwhelmed to inaction. You will be my inspiration.💪

    Such lovely books Wendy , I’ve been not letting myself buy that Journey to Wonderland because I have so many beautiful barely coloured books 🙈 , my intention this year is to only buy books that really make me go “wow” . I’m the same about the mythographic books , I would like one, but when I watch flip throughs I’m just not sure and I think they’re just not me . I love your monthly completed pages but I guess if you wanted to commit to some more complex /serious pages you could do quarterly 🤷‍♀️, it’s tricky ….. I’m a super slow colourist, probably 2 / 3 pages a month . Much love ❤️☀️

      Yes I know what you mean, Im more careful about my purchases now, I haven't got the new Joanna one for that reason, I just don't often colour her stuff.I really tried to order much less Amazon books as well, as I will never get them coloured. I will keep doing monthly colouring I think, I like the deadline of it, but Im thinking I might have a carry over book each month. Something that's a bit more a complicated page, just so it takes of the pressure of 'Having to get that finished'. We'll see, I struggle to leave wips, so can I allow myself to do it!😂😁 Thanks so much , x ❤️💗

    Hi Wendy. Omgosh I love how you feel about not depriving yourself of some new color books. I told myself I have way to many books no more books period but that just depressed me so I just cut back some. I try not to have WIPS either but the one you have is beautiful what you have done of it. I get overwhelmed if the page has so much detail.
