Mandala Adult Colouring Books by Colorya - A4 Size - Mandalas Colouring Book for Adults - Premium Quality Paper, No Medium Bleeding, One-Sided Printing

Love these Spiral Bound Colorya Mandala colouring books... They have clearly printed images on card, yes card, (& it's not thin card either)...it's smooth, white, medium thickness card. No bleed through, (I use stabilo & steadler fineliner pens) but obviously, if you're pressing down hard & going over & over again with mainly dark colours, then yes, you'll eventually bleed through otherwise there's no bleed through if you've got decent quality pens like the ones I've mentioned above. The books are A4 in size, which is fine (but personally I'd much prefer maybe 12"x12") & they are spiral bound, which is so much better. I've added a few images of the mandalas I've done so far. The mandalas are not too intricate & not too simple & some images are larger than others, some have floral elements too. All in all, the quality of these books is fantastic & yes, they're more in price than most, but if like me, you don't mind paying for better quality,...(as unfortunately I've learnt that most adult colouring books are cheap because they are not good quality, have badly printed images, thick black lines, most are for either children or beginners & the paper is usually very thin or rough, or both... & as I always say, you get what you pay for),...then you certainly won't be disappointed with these Colorya adult colouring books....enjoy! ... Just an update... I've added more photos of the mandalas I've completed from this Colorya Mandala colouring book. I have completed, up to now, 24 of the 30 designs & as I'm nearing the few left to do, I have just purchased another one of these books, because I've really enjoyed colouring these smaller designs....(as i've previously stated, I much prefer the larger 12" x 12" Mandala designs in the following books... 'The One & Only Mandala' Colouring Book,... The Second One & Only Mandala' Colouring Book... & 'The Third One & Only Mandala' Colouring Book... These are my absolute favourites, which I have about 4 copies of each title & which I've commented on in detail, via Ebay, as that's where I purchased them... I don't think I've purchased any via Amazon but I could be wrong. )... But anyway, I have found I've quite enjoyed colouring these smaller ones, as they take less time to complete each one. After I've done all 30 designs in this book, I'll return to my favourite 12"x12" books & I'll do those ones for a while then return & start my new book of Colorya Mandalas... & when I do, once I've done each design, I'll again add my completed colourings via here, hopefully inspiring others....as i've been inspired by other's completed designs.

This is a great colouring book. The designs are good and the paper is of excellent quality. I like the spiral bound design of the book because it means that you can colour a page without the previous or following one falling over the one you are colouring. You can also balance it on your knee (whilst watching television) because it is sturdy and the pages strong enough not to need a board underneath. There is one downside however, and that is that Copic sketch markers bleed through so it is not advisable to colour the mandalas with this medium. Although as the pictures are only printed on one side of a page, any bleed through will not affect the next design. I have eagerly searched to see if there are any other colouring books by Colorya of this quality and design (spiral bound) but so far cannot find any. So come on Colorya, lets have some more colouring books please. I would highly recommend this colouring book as the coloured pencils (I have mainly use Polychromos) lay down on the paper very well. Well worth the money.

This colouring book I recieved is amazing by Colorya. The images are lovely, some mandalas are more intricate than others which gives you a nice balance. The paper quality is amazing, it's like card stock. Pages are printed only on one side so you can use whatever mediums you desire. The spiral binding is a lovely addition to have, it's so much easier to colour. Its nice to see a company bring such quality spiral bound colouring books available to the UK - To save on buying from other countries increasing on the price of shipping which is what stops me personally buying them, so I really love that Colorya has given us this opportunity. I have spoken to Colorya on a few occasions and their communication and service was brilliant. Will definitely be looking out for more by Colorya and will not hesitate to buy their colouring books.

This is such a lovely book filled with mandalas on thick, quality paper, each page containing a different design. I love the fact that the book is spiralled, so all the pages remain crease free and you can reach every outline. I have spent many relaxing hours colouring, using pencils so far. I would definitely recommend this book and look forward to Colorya releasing another with a different theme.

This is the first adult colouring book I have done. I have actually really enjoyed it and find myself doing some most evening as it's very relaxing and calms the mind. The paper is very thick like card and the pages being on a spiral is helpful for rotating and ease of colouring. I have used felt tips and mostly gel pens on these designs. I attempted to use pencils but the paper is very smooth and pencils don't work as well, pens seem to give the best effect. My only criticism would be that the mandalas do become quite 'samesy' after a while and it's hard to keep a creative mind when a lot of the patterns on each one are time same. I have however thoroughly enjoyed doing this book. I have ordered a different style colouring book now and plan to go between the two for some variety.

I have done adult colouring for years and own loads of colouring books! This is by far my favourite and I've finished the entire thing now! Lovely patterns, nice detailing, amazing quality paper and spiral bound! The pages are nice and thick so prevents bleeding or the pages bending at the corners, nice and smooth whilst colouring and a nice variety!

Beautiful book! I didnt think i was a "paper snob" but it turns out that i could be! Spiral binding makes it a dream to use. Pictures are clean and crisp. Detailed enough to keep me interested and able to use both fine liners and regular felt tips. Some showing of colour to reverse of the picture when using a darker colour but absolutely nothing bled through onto the next page. Ended up ordering the other two in the set. Bit on the pricey side..but in this case you get what you pay for. Very happy

This book is excellent. The pages are very thick and can take any medium. The spiral binding ensures ease of turning pages. Delivery was prompt and protected well. I have bought another in the same series.

Cool

Les livres colorya sont d' une qualité génial. Papier épais, dessins bien fini. En plus, ils sont reliés, ce qui facilite le coloriage puis cela comprend également pour les gauchers et droitiers. J'ai lu sur des commentaires, qu'il n'y avait pas ISBN d'authentification du livre. Donc je vous confirme qu'il est bien présent mais pas au dos du livre ( il est sur les 1ère page à l'intérieur du livre ). On peut colorier autant avec des crayons de couleurs, des feutres, des stylos gels. Je n'ai jamais essayé la peinture mais au vu de la qualité du papier, je ne pense pas que cela pose un problème. Sur les 3 photos que j'ai mis, cela était coloriée donc au crayon de couleur, feutre pointe 0.4, 0.6, 0.8 et stylo gel (que je préfère). Merci à colorya

Comme d'habitude avec les cahiers de coloriage Colorya, celui ci est top ! La qualité du papier est parfaite, épaisse et lisse ce qui permet un superbe rendu. Je vous met quelques photos des images à colorier... C'est mon cinquième cahier et je suis toujours séduite.

Exactement ce dont j'avais besoin pour me couper du monde pendant quelques temps.

Livre très bien conçu pour ce qui est du plaisir d'utilisation. Les dessins sont beaux, bien imprimés et très fins. J'aime beaucoup colorier les tout petits détails dans les mandalas, je suis servie. La taille et le format (A4) rendent le coloriage très agréable. Mon seul bémol : le papier. C'est un papier épais, aucun risque de le traverser au feutre ordinaire, par contre il est très lisse (un peu trop à mon goût pour les crayons de couleur) et a peluché par endroits avec mes feutres fins (des maped ordinaires avec lesquels il n'y a pas du tout besoin de repasser au même endroit et qui ne malmènent pas le papier). Le papier est si épais que ça n'a pas gâché mon coloriage, mais c'est désagréable (et peut entraîner des coulures si des fibres restent accrochées à la pointe du feutre fin). Nickel pour les stylos gel, en revanche. Dans l'ensemble, je ne regrette pas parce que le confort d'utilisation et la beauté des dessins l'emportent.
