Giveaway Alert: Adult Coloring Book

9.08.2015

Adult Coloring Book GiveawayI don’t know about you, but I was not too excited to return to work after the nice long weekend. Why is it that when you get that extra day off work, it is even harder to return to work than it is on a typical two day weekend? I couldn’t fall asleep last night, so of course I woke up feeling groggy and sick this morning. Not the best start to another work week if you ask me.

But because I don’t want your week to start off on the bad note that mine did, I’m hosting my very first giveaway!! I had so much fun with my adult coloring book pages that I figured I’d give one away to one of my readers. This book is the best I’ve found so far, because all the pages are fun quotes you can hang up at work, frame for the house, or even give to your friends to cheer them up.

Adult Coloring Book GiveawaySince you can’t get your adult coloring on without some sort of utensil, I bought the 72 pack of colored pencils to go with it. With that many options, your pages will definitely stand out. Am I the only person who gets seriously excited for a new coloring book and a SEVENTY-TWO pack of colored pencils?! Hello options!

Adult Coloring Book Giveaway Prize Details

Here are the RULES for entering:

1) Leave a comment below telling me why you can’t wait to get your coloring on.

2) For additional entries, visit Rae of Sparkles on Instagram for more details!

The winner will be chosen at random. The contest closes on September 11th, 2015 at 11:59am. Winner will be announced on Facebook, and will be contacted based on their email address provided for comment. Good luck! 

Adult Coloring Book GiveawayAnd just in case you don’t win your own copy, you can print the Today is Going to Be Awesome page for free on In The Playroom.

    Because I love to color, as a child and still as an adult. I can’t hold colors/pens as well but it’s also great therapy for me (had a mild stroke). But also it is a great anxiety release as well as that Simple Living way of remembering our youth!! ?

    • shauna841505@yahoo.com says

      9.09.2015 at 12:54 pm

      Ohhhh it would be great therapy for you! I have also read a lot that it is very therapeutic for people in general, that it calms the mind the same way that yoga does!

    I am sick of coloring from kids coloring books (Frozen, Mickey, Disney Princess), so this would be a nice change. Plus, in all honestly, I just like to win things.

      9.09.2015 at 12:55 pm

      Hahaha great comment! I can totally understand your pain.

    Sounds like a fun giveaway, Shauna!

    • shauna841505@yahoo.com says

      9.09.2015 at 12:55 pm

      Thanks Rob!!! Maybe you should get your color on!

    Would absolutely love this colouring book! The “Today is going to be awesome” page was one of the first pages I found on Pinterest that started the crazy colouring faze I’m in! I am in university for nursing so colouring is the perfect way to shut off my brain for a little me time. Also, it’s really cheap therapy 😉

    • shauna841505@yahoo.com says

      9.09.2015 at 12:55 pm

      Oh my gosh it was mine too! I think it’s the neatest one online for free. It’s from this book too, which is exactly why I loved this book so much!

    I’d love to win! I am a big fan of the adult coloring book craze, although I’ve started to say coloring book for grown ups cause when I said “adult coloring book” to my coworkers they asked me what these pictures were of that made them “adult”.

    • shauna841505@yahoo.com says

      9.09.2015 at 12:56 pm

      Oh my gosh that is HILARIOUS!!! I didn’t even think about that. I would be so embarrassed if people thought I was coloring nude people! Hahaha

      • Jamie says

        9.09.2015 at 5:22 pm

        Haha I know! They really thought that an adult coloring book meant an “adult” coloring book for adults! I had to tell them it’s really pictures of flowers, castles, normal things like that haha

    This post caught my eye because I’m in an infertility community where a lot of the women have been raving about adult coloring books to take your mind off the craziness. Then here you are! Hope I win! Thanks for the giveaway 🙂

    • shauna841505@yahoo.com says

      9.09.2015 at 12:56 pm

      Wow!!! That would be such a great way to calm the mind. I’ve heard it is a lot like yoga for your mind! I definitely think it is therapeutic for me too!

  8. B says

    9.09.2015 at 12:38 am

    I really would like to win this coloring book because I love to “DIY!” I believe if your not crafting your not really living.
    I know a lot of guys that waste their time mindlessly chasing a ball around a golf course while all the while they could be bringing sunshine and joy to others with this book and accompanied colored pencils. Totes obvi I deserve this! Pick me!!! ;)))

    • shauna841505@yahoo.com says

      9.09.2015 at 12:57 pm

      Alright Mr. You and Lucy can color together from my book. 🙂

      • Bobbie says

        9.09.2015 at 1:34 pm

        The problem with “B” winning is there will not be enough pink colors in the box for him

        • shauna841505@yahoo.com says

          9.09.2015 at 2:25 pm

          This is true. I may have to rethink this.

    So I just found out this adult coloring book is becoming a thing. I have the artistic ability of a cat in heat after getting shot up with cocaine so I’m not really sure how great I’d be at these coloring books lol

    • shauna841505@yahoo.com says

      9.09.2015 at 12:59 pm

      Oh my gosh I die. This is such a great comment. I am really bad with drawing and painting, but anything I can do in between the lines, I can handle!

    I love to color! It’s one of my favorite ways of calming myself down from a panic attack.

    I can’t wait because I’m in college and it’s so stressful! Coloring would ease the pain a little..

When I became a stay at home mom, I thought it wou When I became a stay at home mom, I thought it would only be for a year at most. But as it turned out, I was lucky to be able to make it last as long as it has. What no one ever tells you though about becoming a SAHM, is that your whole identity can get wrapped up in being a mom. And for some women, that’s not a good thing. But for me, it’s a phenomenal thing. It’s an incredible time in my life that I wouldn’t trade for anything. That doesn’t mean I’m not exhausted or irritated at all, it just means I’ll take all of the negatives because the positive completely outweighs it for me. 

This should go without saying, that if you AREN’T satisfied with just being a mom, that’s okay too. For some women, having something else that is THEIRS makes them a better mom. And more power to you!

Back when I was growing up (wayyyyyyy back then), Back when I was growing up (wayyyyyyy back then), it seemed like most people grew up around their extended families. By the time I was in my twenties, it just seemed more likely that you’d be living away from your home towns, starting your own life. But what we didn’t realize was what that meant down the road, when we would start our own families. That our village wouldn’t be made of our family, but instead close friends. The only problem with that, is that most other young parents are working to support themselves, thus aren’t always available to be your village. It can be hard to ask a friend for help when you know she’s simultaneously drowning in her own house. 

So if it “takes a village,” but you’re doing it on your own, I see you. It’s HARD, and it is exhausting. But one day we will be on the other side of these days, telling our babies that it takes a village. And hopefully, we will be right down the road to help them. 🩵

After having my first daughter, I felt like I knew After having my first daughter, I felt like I knew a lot about parenting. I had it down, we had a routine and a schedule and she was pretty easy to handle. Then we had a second. And I realized that everything I THOUGHT I knew about parenting was a lie. I wasn’t a pro at “parenting,” I was a pro at parenting HER. Now I do everything I can not to laugh when a mom of only one child talks like I did. I get it, we’ve been there too, and I’m not judging. But the more kids you add in, the more experience you get as a parent. Because every personality is SO different, that the way you parent one isn’t always the same as the way you parent the others. 

Thoughts?
When I heard this audio, I instantly loved it. It’s such a crazy thing to see in nature, that God is showing us just how stressful and depleting being a new mama can be. 

So if you’re in the thick of it mama, just know you’ll get your pink back soon.

I don’t think we talk enough about how great it I don’t think we talk enough about how great it feels when your child feels safe with someone else. It may be a family member or a best friend, but it’s such a good feeling to know they have another rock in their life.
