Lantern Coloring · Choosing

Which coloring book should I start with?

Any of them: every volume is the same 52 bold and easy designs in the same thick line, so the first one to buy is the subject you want to spend an evening with. The season is the only thing that dates: Cozy Fall and Halloween, Cozy Christmas and Snow Cabin each belong to one, and the other three to none.

  1. You want an autumn evening, with a bit of Halloween in it.

    Book 1, Cozy Fall and Halloween: pumpkins, porch lanterns, black cats, scarecrows and woodland animals.

  2. You want the tree, the stockings and a snowy village.

    Book 2, Cozy Christmas: trees and ornaments, snowmen, gingerbread and the animals of the season.

  3. You want a quiet evening in that works in any month.

    Book 3, Cozy Corners: reading nooks, window seats, mugs, lamps and kitchen shelves.

  4. You want cake, candy and a bakery counter.

    Book 4, Sweet Treats: donuts, cupcakes, ice cream, cafe tables and a gingerbread house.

  5. You want a book to color with a child of 7 or more.

    Book 5, Cute Animals: kittens, puppies, bunnies, bears and penguins, drawn large and simple.

  6. You want winter without a holiday in it.

    Book 6, Snow Cabin: log cabins, wood stoves, moose, foxes and snowy owls.

In doubt

Cozy Corners: it has no season, so it is the one to give without knowing when it will be opened. Every volume is the same size, the same number of pages and the same price.

Questions before you buy

Do markers bleed through?

Every design is on a right-hand page with the back left blank, so a marker that soaks through spoils nothing. With alcohol markers, slip a sheet of paper behind the page.

Are the pictures made with AI?

The designs start in an image generation tool and are then checked and corrected one by one by us, for a line that does not close or a space too small to colour.
