WIN a Coloring Animal Mandalas Book ($10) by Artist Wendy Piersall #giveaway #ChiILHolidaze

ChiIL Mama's Holidaze 12 Days of Giveaways

Continues

Here at ChiIL Mama we're especially happy to feature local, small businesses that have something creative and innovative to offer, especially when they're run by women. It was our great pleasure to see Wendy Piersall in person yesterday at the monthly broadcast of ChicagonistaLIVE for December. She was one of the guests and two lucky winners took home copies of her new coloring book for adults, Coloring Animal Mandalas ($10). Lucky for you, we've got another one for ChiIL Mama's readers. 



Disclosure: It's our pleasure to partner up with another local, woman run, small business. Thanks to Wendy Piersall for providing us with Coloring Animal Mandalas books for our giveaway and for review purposes. As always, all opinions are our own.

ENTER HERE for your chance to WIN a Coloring Animal Mandalas Book ($10) by Artist Wendy Piersall through midnight 12/20. Open nationwide. They're gorgeous, great for all ages and genders, and so much less expensive than therapy! We recommend pairing them up with quality colored pencils for gifting, though of course they're great with any art supplies.

I was particularly excited to review this book since I have an animal mandala tattoo on my shoulder, an inner circle of dogs and an outer circle of dancing people. Whenever anyone ask me what it means to me I tell them it's interconnectedness & individuality. That's how I feel about art, and well... life too. We all have our own unique voice and vision, but there's explosively cool energy and power in connecting with others. Drop the fears and busy schedules, and doubts that hold you back and try something new. Learning is lifelong and not just for kids. Color alone or with family and friends. These are great to do communally if you're caring for someone elderly or ill. Come create something amazing... art, confidence, community, relaxation. 

We've been thoroughly enjoying our review copy of Coloring Animal Mandalas and will have a full review feature with original photos and videos up after the hectic holidays are over. The kids and adults in our family as well as a number of our friends have been enthralled with coloring these great designs. My 11 year old daughter runs for her art supplies whenever she has a big gymnastics competition coming up or when she's feeling tween angst and stress. It's been an incredibly effective, healthy way to relax. 

Buy yours on Wendy's own site here, Amazon, B & N, or get signed copies on Etsy for the same price or Signed, Limited Edition of 25 Watercolors for $35. 

Wendy is from Woodstock and we love to support the locals. Also check out her cool site, Woo!Jr Kids Activities for printables, crafts, games and more.
