Beyond the Coloring Book
You've probably noticed that adult coloring books are everywhere. Did you know that the catalyst for the craze was the work of Scottish author Johanna Basford, whose 2013 title, "Secret Garden: An Inky Treasure Hunt and Colouring Book," began burning up bestseller lists with its detailed images of topiaries and flowers?
Coloring enthusiasts are looking to de-stress and coloring is a great way to channel imagination or to keep their hands busy while they let their minds wander.
We now have the perfect way to enhance the coloring experience: COLOR YOUR OWN COFFEE MUG! Stop into our store and check out our selection - we also have travel size coloring books to pair with your mug!
