Dry markers = SAD.

[hoveringsombrero]

Printed out a bunch of pretty mandalas to colour, got mostly through one, markers are done for. Sad. I like colouring. I'll have to figure out how to get some new ones. Or maybe steal some crayons from a kid.

Is that like candy from a baby? Crayons from a gradeschooler?

I googled something like stress and colouring, or therapy and colouring and rediscovered them.

Then found a site with a fuckton of them to colour.

When I first read the subject line I thought it said Dry martinis = SAD and I was wondering how cold gin could possibly have anything to do with Seasonal Affective Disorder!

I would second the implied suggestion made by the other commenter ... colored pencils are your friend ... they don't dry out like markers, they don't break like crayons, and you really can use them a long, long time (if you don't mind coloring with something that looks like the LJ logo) ... plus, if they're the "fancy" ones you can "watercolor" with 'em!

So ... look for a kid with color pencils

This is an excellent idea, I did used to have some of the watercolour ones.
