Tangled Treasures and Tangled Gardens Coloring Book
by Jane Monk
I received these Adult Coloring Books from Quarto Publishing: Tangled Treasures Coloring Book ( Amazon), Tangled Gardens Coloring Book ( Amazon).
What is an Adult Coloring Books?
I know that adult coloring books sound a little racy. But really these coloring books are simply coloring books that adults enjoy coloring. They are more intricate with more purpose than a child’s coloring book.
Unlike painting, you don’t need to have the skills or training of an artist to create masterpieces. Thanks to the design of the Tangled Coloring Books, all you need to do is pick the colors you prefer and color within the lines. You’ll temporarily disconnect from the everyday hustle and bustle, escaping to a world filled with creativity, inspiration, and serenity. 
The Chief Blonde Remarks:
Tangled Gardens Coloring Book by Jane Monk – If the snow and cold stress you out, cozy up to Jane Monk’s Tangled Gardens. Use your brightest pigments to create a warm and inviting garden while you wait for spring to return. I was really drawn to this coloring book. The designs were fresh and did not have a dated “era” feel to me. I felt the 52 designs were whimsical and intricate to color. Tangled Gardens has the excitement of a 500 piece puzzle.
Tangled Treasures Coloring Book by Jane Monk – The soothing flow of tangling plus the meditative action of coloring makes this book a treat. I love how Jane Monk shows you different ways to color (shade, layer and straight color) and other techniques (marking, what colors to put together). The designs are inviting and simply pull you in and make you want to get out your colored pencils…even if you haven’t colored in years.

I really like the designs in this coloring book and that the pages are perforated so they can easily be torn out.
I think the illustrations in this book are lovely and would be fun to color.
I have never tried an adult coloring book, and the Tagled Treaures book looks appealing because it has intricate designs. And some of the reviews imply that the author shares techniques in the book.
How fun! My ten-year-old daughter has even asked for these!
I LOVE coloring books in general and have been building up my collection…this oe is completely different than anything I have. I love the beautiful artwork, and that it gives techniques to try to take my coloring to the next level too!
Color me Calm is another that I like. I love adult coloring books. I find it a nice and soothing way to pass the time. I’m surprised that they are just now catching on. They’ve been around a long time.
Isn’t it amazing how all of the sudden us adults like to color too! I would like to have one of these and invite my friends over to color!
I love the tiny details… so busy thinking about colouring that ones’ worries would just float away. I think this is the greatest idea ever.
This appeals to me because she is a Zentangle instructor. That makes me curious as to what her book is like. kristiedonelson(at)gmail(dot)com Thank you.
I like that there are 52 separate drawings to color. Also, I like that there are large designs as well as small intricate designs.
After 20+ years of teaching Kindergarten, I still love coloring! I would love the Tangled Garden.
I like that it helps reduce stress & helps you focus by using the right brain, I have been going through a lot of stress & grieving, so focus has been difficult. I would love to try.
I am absolutely in love with adult coloring books! I have such a blast coloring always have since I was a kid. I love these coloring books because I love the designs and details of the drawings and can just imagine all of the great colors that I can put into them! Thanks so much for hosting this awesome giveaway!

Based on some of the pictures inn the Amazon reviews. I like that the designs seem to be so detailed and intricate. This would clearly get my creative juice s flowing and keep me busy for a while allowing me to de-stress after a long day.
I just love seeing how I can get into my creative side so easily!
My favorite feature of this adult coloring book is the fact that you can remove the art from the book and frame it! I’m taking art therapy classes, so this appeals to me the most because I’ll be able to display it around my house to show my progress, as well as to calm me. Art really is so relaxing!
I love to doodle so I think these are awesome!
I love the intricate drawings which make the pictures more interesting and more of a challenge to color and less childish, I’d feel more like I was creating a valid work of art.
I like this coloring book. My daughter just bought her first one now to get the markers to go with it that don’t bleed on the back of the paper. I like the designs in the book it looks interesting were buying some for xmas gifts.
I like the reviews about the great selection of pictures and not a lot of white on the pages. Also the paper is thicker and you can tear the pages out and I could put them in a frame when I am done coloring the pages. I love to color. Happy holidays to all.
