Publisher's Synopsis
This book includes a collection of attractive old costumes for adults to enjoy coloring in order to relax and relieve stress that clings to our bodies like oppressive clothing. Think of blotting out stressful thoughts as you color the lighter portions of these pictures. Imagine yourself wearing some of these costumes from the past, allowing you to escape reality however briefly. Color your circumstances in pleasant shades of peace and joy. Because the images were created from paintings, they are not typical of coloring books with bold black outlines to be filled-in. Many of the pictures include gray and black areas which cannot be easily colored. The images are artistic and imaginative, allowing for coloring of some portion of each selection. The pages are single-sided to avoid complications from colors bleeding through.
