Scripture Doodle, Coloring With A Purpose

I'm sure all of you have seen or heard about all the adult coloring books out there. They have them for pretty much every kind of like one could have. But this set of books is so much more than just a coloring book. There is purpose beyond the relaxation of coloring.

Each book has specific things it focuses on. The whole picture is not always there. as you learn something new about God and His Word, you color the page and meditate on what you have learned. The drawing and coloring (and no you don't have to be an artist to take part) are a part of devotions and spending time with God. It's a fantastic idea and so much more relaxing than just coloring.

It's coloring with a purpose!

Basic Set Of Gel Pens For Relaxing Coloring

The coloring craze is huge right now, and I understand why it is. It really is relaxing and fun. But there are so many kinds of markers out there to use. How do you know what kind to get? It can get kind of confusing and costly.

Well to be completely honest with you, it's a little trial and error and asking your friends. One kind of gel markers I recently tried out are AmazaPens Gel Coloring Pen Set. There are a total of 24 pens, 12 glitter, 6 neon, and 6 pastel.

The pens come in a nice plastic case with a snap closure making it easy to store them. I don't use markers very often, so this is really nice for me. I can keep them in the case storing them horizontally to keep them from drying out since I don't use them too often. By the way, storing markers horizontally is the best way to keep them all the time no matter how often you use them.

For the most part the pens color well. For a marker, they blend well and fill in fairly evenly. They are great for that kind of thing. Now for writing, not so much. Unless you are making very large letters, these gel pens aren't great for basic writing. A lot of the colors get lost on the paper without being outlined or next to a darker color. The glitter ones do well, the neon and pastel, not so much.

After writing with them on white paper I tried some on black to see if they showed up better. Unfortunately they don't even with coloring things in. To really get the ink to show up on black, you have to go over things several times, which is a waste of ink to me.

Surprisingly, the one pen I like the most is the white ink. It works well with my colored pencils for highlights and emphasis. I've used it a lot and like it very much!

This is a nice basic set of gel pens, and would be good for most coloring projects to help you relax. They sell for a good price too!

Summer is About Pops of Color

This post was created in partnership with eAccountable. All opinions are my own.

Sometimes changing things up and giving a new fresh look to your space is as easy as adding a pop of color. We did that a little earlier this year. It made a wonderful difference.

Spending time entertaining or relaxing in your outdoor area should be a huge part of your summer days and nights. And nothing enlivens that outside living space like pillows. You can change the entire look with fun, modern, graphic, bold pillows that also add that touch of flair and comfort. Mix, match, play with color. You can’t go wrong – especially once you add family and friends.

You can also add some beach-inspired towels to help perk up your bathroom. They’re also a beautiful addition poolside. Wrap yourself in luxurious comfort with soft, beautiful, absorbent towels that add subtle nautical flair with stripes in muted colors.

But it’s not just about your outdoor space. A simple, breezy tablecloth with an unexpected dip dye look adds an unexpected splash of whimsy to your dining experience. Casual, yet elegant, this modern tablecloth is perfect whether you’re dining indoors or entertaining alfresco.

These easy updates from ShopNineSpace.com have bold impact and give you that fresh, updated stylish feel that come with summer.
