i know i can’t be the only one who’s jumped on the coloring bandwagon. in fact, i know a couple of my great friends (who might be reading this post) are on the bandwagon because we’ve done wine + coloring night. (which reminds me, that was super fun + must be done again!)

so, even though i have all sorts of fun + craftiness always going in the studio, i decided to grab a coloring book and see if it really did what all the articles say it does. which is help calm things down. help you focus + clear your head. did it?

yep. (caveat: i only color after the kids have gone to bed. because why try to fight chaos?)

once i got hooked, mr. re-nest decided to help my new little habit, and grab me some more books for the holidays. so, now i have a pretty sweet little library of coloring books to choose from when i need a moment away + need to clear my head. 

you can pretty much walk into any store now + find adult coloring books, but here are some of my faves:

– usborne books has a fantastic selection of coloring books for kiddos through to adults! 

– michaels + target have a line of color wonders for everyone coloring books, which have beautiful patterns!

what about you? do you have an obsession with coloring too???
