About this coloring page
Page 2 of 4 in Cozy Holiday Miniatures, a coloring book about tiny Christmas worlds — dollhouses, little villages and music boxes: a little Christmas village of houses and a church set out on a bookshelf between tall books, with a stocking hanging below. Pine sprigs and fake snow run along the shelf. Each page of the book has its own free download.
Printing and coloring tips
Print at 100% on Letter or A4. Plain 80–100 gsm copy paper is fine for crayons and colored pencils; for markers, use thicker paper or put a scrap sheet underneath so the ink doesn't bleed through. Detailed scenes like this one are easier with fine-tip markers or sharpened pencils.
Ideas for this page
- Color the books in different colors and keep the village snowy white.
- Use a fine-tip pen or a sharp pencil for the smallest shapes — garlands, bows and window panes.
Questions
What paper is best for Village on the Bookshelf?
