I thought I'd do something different today and just post a plain old fun crayon page.   My husband found me 5-6 different Disney books at the dollar store and grabbed them for me.   I hate kids coloring books these days because they are all "color and activity" books.   I just want plain old pictures to color, like when I was a kid.

I am a crayon snob so only have crayola brand, but I think all crayons are pretty similar most likely.

As a side note, I'm not sure why the loop part of the bow looks like it hasn't been colored in properly in the scan.  I doubled checked the original and it looks fine.

I love this! I've always thought coloring was a great pastime. May I ask your opinion on something? I bought each of my grand daughters (8 and 11 yrs. old) a Zen Tangle Coloring Book for Christmas. Do you think that regular Crayola colored pencils are okay? Or should I be buying them something special to use?

Thanks for your help.

I also don't care for the color/activity books they have these days. It seems harder to find regular pictures. Maybe I'll check the dollar store.

Yes regular colored pencils should be fine.  Some of the details can be a bit small on the zentangle books, so you need something that can have a pretty good point.  I think regular crayons would be tough to use, but crayola colored pencils should be just fine.

You need to get yourself a book and color with them!

They are hard to find now, but there are some out there.  The dollar store ones do have a few "activity" pages, but they are very few.  Probably less than 10 pages per book, unlike most of the ones you find now days where basically every other page is an activity page.

I'll see if I can find a link to the books I have so you know what to look for.

Awwww.....now you have gone and done it! I was so trying to keep away from the coloring, as I have way to many projects going at the same time. But since you suggested it, I probably will. But I think I will get gel-pens. I like the way they look. Hopefully, I can keep the girls grubby little hands off them.....lol. Not likely tho.

      I googled “fancy old fashioned names” for JinJer and the Bridgerton character names came up- and really I could see any of them :

      Daphne, Eloise, Francesca, Hyacinth, Penelope - plus secondary characters like Agatha, Prudence, Phillipa, Portia, Edwina, Cressida, (Charlotte is too popular and I think they’d leave Violet for Jessa) 

      Anthony, Benedict, Gregory all would fit their vibe. The other male names are too short or common I think. 

      Not saying it will happen, but it would be wild if sweet sheltered Jinger used that very steamy show as her source 🤣
       

       

      I have no idea what Bridgerton is (not a sheltered fundie but a lot on my plate with no time for tv or steaming), but these sound so spot on for Jinger and Jeremy!

      After Felicity and Evangeline (?) I could totally see something fancy / old fashioned / French sounding for a girl.

      Adrienne maybe? Or Eleanor? Or Adeline (though that would be too similar to Evangeline maybe)? I could also see something like Violet.

      Something classic for a boy. Fundies love to go cutesy / creative for girls’ names and traditional for boys’ names.

      Do Jinger’s and Jeremy’s girls have middle names? I’d expect them to use a virtue or family name as middle name.

      Bontragers/Bowers/Helferichs 14: It's An Insufferable People Contest!

      It's totally going over her head what Grand Oaks Plantation represents. She doesn't appear to have many brain cells in operation.

      If she is blocking 10 people a day, she should make a new name.

      Or at least get a fucking clue. What a dimwit.

      Wonder if Felicity will be sister-momming this new sibling?   

      She's praying for a brother, so I imagine she'll be doing lots of sister momming, given she's aware of what's going on.
