The best printer paper for coloring pages
I recommend using 32 lb bright white paper for coloring pages. It’s thicker than copy paper, which means it’s less likely to experience bleeding and feathering. It’s also smoother for a more enjoyable coloring experience. If it’s out of stock, the HP 24# paper is the second best choice. It’s still thicker and brighter than standard paper and it cost a couple of dollars less than the 32# paper.
Pencils & markers for adult coloring
These mermaid coloring pages are lovely, aren’t they? I’m really enjoying coloring them. I hope you do, too. The caps on Supertips markers usually don’t look quite like the marker ink. This is a common issue with markers - virtually all markers look different on paper than they do on the cap. You may want to swatch out your markers for a better idea of their exact color.
