Story of Us Coloring Book


While I was packing to move I found our wedding box (filled with photos, programs, special mementos, etc.). Since it was just our anniversary on Saturday, I decided to peruse through it and I came across this:


I made these coloring books to give to all the kids that would be at our wedding, along with a little baggy of crayons. Even if you attended our wedding you might not have seen these if you did not have a child with you. It was fun to draw out the story of us, a great project. Have a look:





Cute huh?

It was as simple as:
- Using a computer to print out pages with the words.
- drawing the pictures in pencil and then outlining with a sharpie.
- Take the pages to a photocopier and make however many copies.
- fold the sheets in half, assemble the book, and staple at the spine.

And it was such a hit with all the kids, who sat and colored during the toasts and such.
It was neat to stumble upon this and I'm glad that I could share it with you.
It's such an easy project.  I was thinking about making personalized ones like these for the girls (for a road trip, special vacation, or just for fun).
