We’ve talked before about the relaxing and stress relieving goodness of adult coloring books. This interesting example combines those properties with the additional stress relief found in the cathartic practice of writing down your thoughts. Part adult coloring book, part notebook, it’s perfectly called the Coloring Notebook.
Inside the Japanese paper hardcover (which lays flat) are pages with more than 50 original coloring pages on archival acid-free paper. The beautifully varied images are charming and intricate, ranging in subject from meditative mandala-like patterns, to fanciful landscapes or a whimsical pile of buttons.
On the opposite side of the book are one of three types of paper: blank, ruled or dot grid. Whether you want to journal, sketch out ideas or lay out a design, it’s perfect for all kinds of creative people. Pre-order your own over at coloringnotebook.com.
