Holiday Gift Guide- Color your way down memory lane in the TOTALLY 90s COLORING BOOK.

 


It’s the perfect time of year to decompress with a coloring book! Illustrator Christina Haberkern’s, TOTALLY 90s COLORING BOOK, is the newest necessary addition to every adult coloring book collection.

From the ever-popular fashion accessories like scrunchies and fanny packs, to outdated but lovable tech like the Walkman and VCRs, this coloring book is the perfect memento for ‘90s kids. It's also a fun time capsule for artists of any age. Christina has put together her favorite 90s throwback songs for you to listen to while you color your way down memory lane. You can find this playlist on Spotify under the title, "Totally 90s". 

My Thoughts:


Being born in the beginning of the era, I feel like I got the full 90s kid experience! I was so excited when I heard about the Totally 90s coloring book. Coloring is a relaxation tool I embrace in my life even as an adult. It feels very meditative. This was the perfect coloring book to use to take a trip down memory lane and connect with my inner child. 


My favorite aspect of the Totally 90s coloring book is how detailed the pages are. They all have multiple 90s designs in the background and plenty of famous celebrities, activities, and accesssories throughout. I laughed so hard when I saw the photo of, The Rock, in his fanny packs. That's probably my favorite page out of all of them!


If you're looking for the perfect relaxation activity or a fun holiday gift, I can't recommend the Totally 90s coloring book enough! You won't be disappointed.

Color For Calm 2018 Calendar Review - Add color every day!







Coloring is so relaxing. There is something special about filling in spaces with color. I have been coloring since a child, but nothing like the detailed coloring books that are available these days. I find myself coloring something each day.


The Color For Calm 2018 Calendar is perfect for a quick and easy coloring project, daily. This box style calendar features a new design for every single day. The sheets can be torn off for coloring or left on the stand. I personally would leave the page on the stand then when it is time to change the date, then I would color the previous day that I am removing.

The Color For Calm coloring calendar is filled with patterns, florals, animals, abstracts and fun designs. There are so many to choose from! It makes it exciting to see what the next day coloring pattern is!  I like the variety of images. There are plenty of Mandalas and other intricate designs. I am not too fond of flowers, but the images included are worth coloring.

Besides being a daily calendar, coloring a page a day, does provide a few moments of calm. They have included coloring pencils which are attached to the back of the stand.

One of the enjoyable aspects of this calendar, the daily pages tear out and are one sided! I like to remove them to work on.  The variety from picture to picture includes small very detailed sections to flowing swirls and more! There are seasonal designs within each month too. This book has definitely kept my coloring attention.





It comes with 5 double sided colored pencils, providing 10 colors to work with. The pencils provide the basic colors. They are not the greatest of coloring quality pencils but having them handy is a coloring plus!


I am thrilled to have this Color For Calm Calendar and am looking forward to each day!  This would make an ideal gift for any coloring enthusiast.

Look for Color For Calm at your favorite book store or order online at many book sellers.
