I haven't touched this coloring book in a while but thanks to Litsy, I decided to again today when I couldn't concentrate on my physical book. I plugged in my audiobook and went to town. Love Johanna Basford's adult coloring books so much! 🖍

BookishFeminist @TheNextBook Totally thinking that one of these days when DC Litsy folk get together that we should have a coloring party. 🤓 8y

readinginthedark What are those pens you're using? So bright and pretty! 8y
BookishFeminist @readinginthedark Staedtler! I got this at Target. 👍🏼 8y
MariaCristina @readinginthedark I recognize those pens! They're by Staedler. I love 'em! The triangular barrel makes them comfy to grip, the points are fine, and they come in so many colors. Not too much bleed. The case they come in is pretty sturdy, too (especially when most pens come without a case at all). If they ever stopped making them, I would probably stop color-coding my planner. 😜 8y
subwayreads You're so good. I was just coloring myself and can't do it in between the lines :( 8y
Megabooks Gorgeous!! 8y
SusanInTiburon So pretty! 8y
Varshitha So pretty.. 8y
KVanRead What audio book were you listening to? 8y
BookishFeminist @subwayreads Aw don't be so hard on yourself! I don't color as well within the lines as it looks and when I do it takes forever. I wanna see your coloring! I'm sure it looks fab 👍🏼 8y
BookishFeminist @TransparentAcademic Yes! They're the best pens honestly. I gave the smaller 6-packs of fall and highlighter colors too because they're just so pretty to look at. 🤓 8y
BookishFeminist @Ebooksandcooks @SusanInTiburon @Varshitha Thank you guys!! ❤️❤️ 8y
BookishFeminist @KVanRead This one! It's really great and philosophical so far. Jesse Ball is fantastic.![[tagged book]](https://image.librarything.com/pics/litsy_webpics/icon_taggedBook@3x.png)

How to Set a Fire and Why: A Novel[DELETED] 1409720085 Love those pens. I have her ocean book which I will be coloring until I die. 8y
BookishFeminist @emilydecato they're the best pens. 👍🏼 I have her hidden forest and ocean books as well. They take so long but I can't resist! 😭 with 2 more out this year I don't know how I will manage 8y
brendanmleonard I adore the statlaeders! I use them for my bullet journal. 8y
BookishFeminist @brendanmleonard They're great for so many things! I wish I had the patience to bullet journal. It looks super useful. 8y
Theresa Y'all have sucked me in. Read this post & comments then immediately placed an order for my very 1st adult coloring book, by Johanna Basford of course, and set of Staedtler pens. 😆😄 8y
DefLeppard My sister recently got me some colouring books for my birthday they are great fun for picking up when you have a spare moment. :) 8y
Karkar I love those pens. They are the best!! 8y
LauraBeth Beautiful ❤️ 8y
gibblr Love all her books! 8y
TheNextBook @BookishFeminist Litsy party with coloring, drinks and good food! 8y
JPeterson So pretty! 🎨 8y
LauraBrook I'm always so afraid to actually start coloring in her books - they're so beautiful that I don't want to mess them up! #yesimcrazy 8y
KVanRead @BookishFeminist Another book TBR'd #damnitlitsy ! 8y
Laru79 Gorgeous aren't they? I have them all but am a reluctant colourer, don't want to make a mess! 8y
Laalaleighh I'm so envious. Coloring hurts my neck so I can't do it very long- posts like this make me so jealous. Beautiful btw! 8y
BookishFeminist @TheNextBook Yes! We're gonna make this happen for sure now. 👍🏼👍🏼 8y
BookishFeminist @Laalaleighh Oh no! TBH I can't do it for long periods of time either- this took forever because I always got up to do breaks. Also doing it on a high table like mine helps with the neck pain. But thank you!! I hope you can find some less painful coloring sometime ❤️ 8y
Laalaleighh @BookishFeminist you're welcome!! And thank you 😊 8y
BookishFeminist @Theresa Litsy strikes again! You made a good choice. Which Johanna Basford book did you choose? I can't wait to see your creations! 8y
BookishFeminist @Tamora1979 I completely agree- great to do while watching tv or listening to audiobooks. It's a really relaxing and mindful activity. 😊 8y
BookishFeminist @Karkar They are! Plus they're the ones Johanna herself uses so I must listen to the coloring book queen! 8y
BookishFeminist @LauraBeth @JPeterson Thank you guys!! 😊 8y
BookishFeminist @gibblr I do too! I have three and want the other two coming out this year. So time consuming though! 8y
BookishFeminist @LauraBrook @Laru79 Haha I totally get that! That's why I put it down for so long. I can look at Instagram creations of them for so long though and that gave me the inspiration to dive in without as much fear of making a mess. Besides that's what coloring books are for sometimes! 8y
BookishFeminist @KVanRead Hahaha enjoy it! I'll post my review of it when I'm done. 👍🏼 8y
Laru79 You're right! I have to get mine out in secret though or my daughter wants to colour too and I'm too much of a perfectionist to let her! She'll need her own copies! 8y
BookishFeminist @Laru79 😱 I would do the same thing. Maybe a trip to kinkos first! 8y
Theresa @BookishFeminist I chose Enchanted Forest. It was a tough decision because they all looked so beautiful. 8y
moranadatter Beautiful! 8y
DefLeppard I am obsessed with owls and think this is so beautiful. :) 8y
