Coloring books have been around since we were children and they still remain one of the most popular forms of self-expression for adults. Studies show that coloring helps reduce stress, boost mindfulness and develop problem-solving skills. If you are looking for a great side hustle or want to start a new career, creating and selling your own coloring book may be the perfect solution for you!
The best way to create a coloring book is by using a design program that allows you to add shapes and lines to the image you are working on. A lot of people use illustration programs to make their coloring book art, but there are also online tools like Canva that can help you create a digital design with no graphic design experience required.
When it comes to printing your coloring book, a thicker paper stock is the way to go. This will prevent any line art or the user’s coloring medium from bleeding through to the next page. You can even opt for a double-sided print to give the reader more options and variety when they are coloring.
Spiral Coil or Wire-O Binding
These binding methods allow your coloring book to open flat and stay securely closed while in use. Depending on your desired audience, you can also choose to have your coloring book laminated to protect it from water and other damage.
