#MMBBR Review: Doodle Art Alley Coloring Books @DoodleArtAlley

Today is Thanksgiving in the US!  

I thought it would be fitting to share a post and review about 

something I am GRATEFUL for!  

I am grateful for ADULT COLORING BOOKS!!!  

I just love coloring and feel like this is something I will enjoy for the remainder of my life! So in addition to being grateful I am THANKFUL to Doodle Art Alley Books for sharing their most awesome coloring books with my viewers and I! 

OK, so I may be a bit obsessed with coloring!  I find it to be one of the best activities I can do to help myself relax!!  It can be done everywhere. I color while waiting for appointments, while watching (rather listening to) TV or while my kids are busy playing Legos!!  I have begun carrying coloring supplies with me...just in case there is time to color while out and about!

DOODLE ART ALLEY BOOKS are my absolute FAVORITE coloring books EVER! I just love everything about them! I love the quotes, the detail, the designs and the size! I use them as inspiration quotes on the bathroom mirror for my kids (and myself) to see each morning. I switch the pictures out from time to time to keep things fresh. The boys think that is a great way to start their day! I use these pictures as thank you cards and for other occasions that would constitute a greeting card. I feel that this is such a more personal way to let people know that you are thinking of them!!!  In addition to the practical purposes of the finished product the actual process of coloring it both relaxing and therapeutic! I make sure to set aside 20 minutes nearly daily for coloring and I feel so much better when I get my time in! I think there is something very wonderful that happens when you color and I found that is it one of my favorite things to do!!! This whole series of books are all wonderful and each book focuses on something a bit different than the others! All the books are awesome and I HIGHLY recommend them! I cannot wait to see what other books that come out and I hope I am lucky enough to review them here for all of you!!! 5 HUGE STARS!!!
