Re: Doodles for Adults

I have seen them in WH Smiths, on the bottom of the magazine shelves, so I assume similar shops would stock them

Now that sounds more like it. May I ask where you found that one, Julie ?

Re: Doodles for Adults

I read on the Net that there was some very good Adult Colouring books,and my daughter said they are one of the best sellers at her Book Shop ..
I did read that you have to be careful which Pens you use because they bleed through the pages .
I may ask for Book and Pens for Christmas Present.

The fashion ones sounds great Julie ive not seen that one...I have one with various different doodles in and also cats too . Some are very tiny and you can hardly see where you have to colour or you would need extremely fine tip professional pens for these.

If you check out The Works Book shops they do a nice selection at half the price . Best one to date is the Kew Gardens flower book at just £3.00

Re: Doodles for Adults

I'm always doodling on bits of paper, no colouring books though, the margins of newspapers and writing rude captions under photo's of politicians, I find that releases the tension of wanting to strangle them all, very relaxing.

Sounds like a good idea! You could start a new trend.

Amazon ST just type in adult colouring books and it's just a case of finding something that suits, the more busy ones seem most popular so you have to trawl through for the better ones but they are there.

Re: Doodles for Adults

A friend of mine gave me this site. I make greeting cards and she thought I might like it. Must admit I have printed a few out, and the colouring is just like doodling, doesn't matter which colour you use, just let yourself go
