desertcart.com: Color by Number Mandalas: An Adult Coloring Book with Fun, Easy, and Relaxing Coloring Pages (Color by Number Coloring Books): 9798682563883: Summer, Jade: Books Review: A really nice book for those who like mandalas or color by numbers - This is a really neat Mandala Color By Number book for adults with a good variety of patterns. None of them are overly complex or have extremely tiny details to try to color and all the numbers are a fairly good size and dark enough to read, but they will show through most colors and mediums after the picture is finished. There are 50 unique patterns to color with no duplicate images although the mandalas are circular and so do not fill up the entire page. There is a color chart on the back cover which gives both a color sample as well as a generic color name for each number. You can either match your colors exactly to the colors shown, or use the generic names (like light green, medium green, dark green, etc.) to pick your own hues. Also, 4 of the back pages contain custom color charts for you to fill in with whatever your medium of choice is: 2 have the generic names of the colors as listed on the color chart on the back cover, and 2 are completely blank so you can choose your own color scheme entirely. This is a really nice feature not often found in other Color By Number books. However, you will have to cut the pages out of the back of the book if you want to look at them while you are coloring. The paper is a good quality, medium weight paper perfect for colored pencils, and there is a black ink backing on each page for pen and markers so the ink does not bleed through as much. I would advise using a piece of cardstock behind whatever picture you are coloring in, because the black ink will rub off faintly with even medium pressure and leave a ghost image of the pattern you are coloring on the page behind. On the black ink back of each page there is also a faint copy of the number code included. This is a nice touch as all of the color charts are found in the back of the book, however they do not have any way of actually adding the color to these for visual reference. I would have liked it if the color chart on the back of the page only listed the colors needed for the page across from it, but all the ink backs have the full 30 number color code listed so you have to first hunt through each pattern to figure out which numbers/colors you will use for that page. All in all this is a nice coloring book for people who enjoy either Mandala coloring books or color by number books. I really enjoy coloring this book in. Review: SO entertaining - I work in a call center setting and this book is great for those down times. It's so simple that I was even able to color it while I was actually on the phone.

Very peaceful
I like the color schemes. Very peaceful and entertaining. Useful for when you dont want to think and just want to color. Very pretty pictures as well! Marker does seep into other pages a little bit but other than that it’s great.

Beautiful, love it. Also has a custom color chart to fill in. Thank you!!
UPDATE: I just finished this coloring book and I’m so happy. This was the best coloring book I’ve had yet! Love this coloring book. It has some beautiful designs and also there is a few sheets in the back to make your own custom coloring charts. I love that idea as I have a worn out sheet I carry around with my markers that I made, now I can have it in this book!!!

Mandala Madness
Great book with plenty of mandalas to choose from! The one thing I’ve noticed is a lot of them use a lot of warm tones. So much yellow & orange despite having 30 colors in their key. All the mandalas look different enough that I don’t feel I’m coloring the same thing over & over. And they’re all pretty quick to color! A very fun book, definitely glad I got it!

This is a very straightforward book. I do this while watching TV. The only thing to remember is place a piece of card in between pages, as the black pages with the colour numbers rubs onto the next pattern like carbon paper (definitely if you use pencils) as shown in the photo. Overall I really love colouring these mandalas.

Très agréable à utiliser, des grands dessins avec des chiffres lisibles. Pas de détails très petits, où c’est difficile de lire les chiffres. Très sympa.
