Review

"Sherry and John have always inspired me with their 'roll up your sleeves' can-do attitude, real language, and smart projects. Their latest creation, Color at Home, is another totally surprising and useful tool that allows you to get started with just colored pencils. I want one."

Great Young House Love inspired designs – printed on both sides of the page

Byiiiireader#1 REVIEWER#1 HALL OF FAMEon October 14, 2016

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

I've read the Young House Love blog for years and was happy to find out that Sherry and John Petersik were collaborating with illustrator Joan Borawski to develop a coloring book based on interior design. I've found their blog to be both fun to read and an inspiration for changes I have made around both my current and last house.

The designs in the book are wonderful. They are clean line drawings that are fun and easy to color. In addition to the actual coloring pages, there are also some hints for interior design and some exercise pages for trying out some of those hints. Most of the designs are detailed and a few of them include intricate elements to color. The designs show a wide variety of rooms, a couple of outside views, as well as some furniture and other design collage style pages.

The book is printed on both sides of the perforated page and 15 of the designs spread across two pages. What is great is that the designs stop right at the perforations and pick up on the next page at the same spot. It makes it easy to color the whole design without having to struggle coloring into the binding area.

I have a couple of coloring books by this publisher and the paper, binding, and the printing of this book are quite different from those. While I like the prior books, this one steps up a level in publishing. It's a real pleasure to color in.

This is what I experienced while coloring in this book and testing the paper with my coloring medium.

61 pages of designs inspired by Young House Love (not including title, intro or exercise pages.)

Printed on both sides of the page

Paper is heavyweight, white, slightly smooth, and perforated

Sewn binding. You can remove pages in whole by cutting the binding; however, I would simply remove pages at the perforations.

Designs do not merge past the perforations.

Alcohol-based markers bleed through the page. They are the only wet medium that I tested which did bleed through the page.

Water-based markers, India ink pens and gel pens did not bleed through or leave shadows on the back of the page. Gel pens did require additional drying time.

Colored pencils work well with this paper. Even though the paper is slightly smooth, it grips color really well. I was able to layer and blend easily with both wax and oil based pencils.

In addition to the copy of this coloring book that I purchased on Amazon, the publisher sent me a sample advanced reader copy of this book.

Lovely coloring book with enjoyable rooms to color and decorate!

ByMary S.on October 17, 2016

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

This is a beautiful coloring book. I ordered one for myself and one for my mother as we wanted a book that was rooms to color. It is fun trying out different designs and colors. This book has nice heavy paper pages. They are printed on both back and fronts of the pages and some of the rooms are both pages across. It is nice that the design does not go all the way into the binding. There is a good variety of rooms. Living rooms, several kitchens, bedrooms both for adults and children, bathrooms a library, office, laundry room, craft space, even a walk in closet. There is also a porch and an exterior home. There are also a few pages scattered between the rooms with such themes as coffee mugs, or plants and flowers, or chairs, or swatches of items to decorate a room etc. The only negative I have which I am not even counting as negative enough to mark down is that the front of the book has quite a few pages dedicated to teaching you ways to color the pages. I just want to experiment on my own and did not want to do the coloring exercises so I just skipped those pages but I would of rather that those pages had additional rooms to color. I would highly recommend this book to those who enjoy coloring and would like to do their own interior decorating in the pages of a coloring book.

Color Me Thrilled!

Bydiana lapadulaon October 13, 2016

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

What a thoroughly enjoyable treasure! Not only is this book fun and relaxing, it's actually functional, productive, thought provoking, and useful as well. I couldn't wait to dive in, and I'm so looking forward to the many additional hours of creative time I'll be spending coloring within its pages. Just when I think you can't top yourselves, you go and do one better! Keep it up YHL- you continue to amaze!

Wanted to love this but.....

ByAmazon Customeron May 15, 2017

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

I really wanted this coloring book, and the pictures are beautiful, but part of the coloring experience is completing a picture on one page. Most of the prettiest rooms are spread over the left and right side pages. So, it takes both pages for one picture, and there is a picture on the back. I really prefer ones with the back page blank. I am in the minority in my rating, but these things really bothered me enough that I gave it to my grandson to color in. He really likes it.

Beautifully done coloring book for artist or design enthusiast or both!

ByCianan Simson October 13, 2016

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

This is a pretty amazing coloring book. The illustrations are very well done. I kept sitting next to my husband shouting, "it looks just like their entry buffet!" The book was filled with fantastic surprises such as the opening color theory section, the different aesthetics/design and the fact that I get to color YHL's house! I didn't realize it would be lots of their home illustrated. As a longtime YHL follower, this was a really fun discovery. How many moments have we all had -I like what they did but I would have done a different color. Well, now I get to do just that!
I am so excited that essentially this in an interior design coloring book. I might not be able to renovate my bathroom right now but I can still form a vision and execute it exactly the way I want. I even get to experiment with different colors and choices than I would have done in my home so it is going to stretch my design skills too.
Even my coloring enthusiast kindergarten daughter wanted to join me. It was a little hard deciding which picture I could part with! They are all so beautiful. Tearing out a page was yet one more proof of the detail and thoughts the Petersiks put into everything they do. Hello perforated pages! I was able to give my very particular daughter a wrinkle-free, tear-free page.
I can see this coloring book being one of my guilty pleasures this Fall/Winter. It was the perfect relaxing activity after a busy week! Thank you Petersiks for bringing this to fruition.

Great detail, enjoying coloring it. Only odd thing, I swear there are unintentional faces in some of the objects (such as the bathroom curtain in one two page spread).
