The relaxation colouring-in books can provide have been pretty well documented over the past year or so.
And if you walk into your local Readers, you’ll no doubt see a modest selection of these books for adults – the kinds that spruik health benefits like reducing anxiety and inducing a meditative state.
Yep pretty much the exact opposite of this feeling thanks
A lad over in the US have caught wind of this trend, and is now offering colouring-in books featuring none other than your Instagram photos. It’s pretty much a-ha‘s smash hit, Take Me On, but irl.
All you do is upload your pics to their website HERE, and they’ll ship you over a black and white lined version to Derwent the absolute shit out of.
Cory Will, founder and “CCO” (Chief of Coloring Operations) of Color Me Book on how he came up with the concept:
“Color Me Book was started in our living room in Los Angeles while my Fiance and I were coloring with our new set of colored pencils. I was trying to draw my dogs, Briggs and Harlan, in their cuddle position but they would not stay still. That’s when a lightbulb went off and I decided to snap a photo and turn it into a coloring book page. Here we are, with you coloring in your own favorite photos. Upload your photos directly on our site and get a custom coloring book shipped to you.”
Those pesky doges!
The website also has pre-made books featuring the very en-trénd themes of Yoga, Festival and Brunch. So zen.
