Clairefontaine Coloring book and pencils

Since 1858, Papeteries de Clairefontaine has been producing quality paper and paper products in France, and they have become well known for their fountain pen friendly paper in the pen community. Recently, they introduced a line of coloring books and colored pencils, with the following coloring book themes: Mandalas, Designs, Tattoos, Nature, or Birds. Frank at Federalist Pens and Paper graciously sent me over a coloring book and a pack of the pencils to try out and review.

Final Thoughts: The coloring book is impressive. I like that you can use fountain pens in addition to the colored pencils and there is minimal concern about bleed through or feathering. 36 interesting designs will give you hours of drawing time and tons of options for creativity. The pencils overall are nice but the lack of color labeling on the pencils was a drawback. The coloring books retail for $9.99 and the pencils are $12 but you can get both as a kit from Federalist Pens and Paper for $20.00.You can find the coloring book at http://www.federalistpensonline.com/NEW-Clairefontaine-Coloring-Books_p_187.html and contact Federalist Pens and Paper at http://www.federalistpensonline.com/ for the package deal. Thank you Frank for sending these over, they have been fun to play with and helped my wife and I relax with the newborn.
