Publisher's Synopsis
If you love to color colonial architecture from the nation's revolutionary city capital in the Williamsburg Virginia Geographic Area and the Historic Restoration district, this book is a definite 'must buy!' If you love to color the holiday decorations, you can't wait to purchase this book!
Historically, the colonists did not decorate for the holidays as Americans do today. But, in keeping with the guidelines of the local building codes of the area, residents can decorate for the holidays, but are only allowed to use natural materials that could be found or were present at the time of the early revolutionary era. The amazing wreath designs are stunning in their simplicity and variety of beautiful materials. This coloring book also has a companion resource book available via the author's Etsy store where buyers can view the original full-color photographs to resource the colors and more details to the materials in each wreath (etsy.com/people/DawnDBoyer)
The book is filled with 50+ Gray Scaled Photographs of the 2016 Holiday Wreathes and Décor you will find if you visit the area. This is one of four volumes of Gray Scale photos that concentrate on Holiday Wreathes and Décor. There are at least two creative ways you can use the illustrations in this book and the other three volumes:
As a Coloring Book - pull the pages out, get out your crayons and colored pencils, and 'go to town' in adding your interpretation of what materials the colonists used if they were inclined to decorate their windows and doors during the holiday season.
As a Scavenger Game - look through the book and see if you can identify the location of all the illustrations throughout the book. Mark the location page with the longitude and latitude coordinates. Buy more books for your friends and family and see who can identify all the locations of the structures in the book first!
