Big Kids Coloring Book: Restored District Williamsburg VA Geographic Area Gray Scale Photos to Color - Holiday Wreaths and Décor
THIS BOOK IS Volume 5 of 9 - 2017
If you love to color beautiful Gray Scale photos, and love the restored colonial area of the city of Williamsburg, VA, you will adore this series of books of the 2017 holiday décor and decorations around the area.
The artist/photographer took a walking tour of the streets and buildings in December throughout the beloved restored area to document the stunningly beautiful 2017 door wreaths and holiday decorations.
In creating the wreaths and décor, restrictions and instructions were the elements of each holiday design had to be created with materials in existence during the colonial era.
The wreaths and décor are predominantly made of natural materials - dried fruit, flowers, and vegetables, magnolia leaves, sycamore tree seed balls, artichokes, dried okra pods, apples and pineapples, persimmons, oyster shells, evergreen boughs and fresh or dried leaves, oranges spiked with cloves, lotus pods, apples, wheat and corn husks, baskets, feathers, and pine cones.
The holiday designers added 'trades-related' elements to some wreaths such as dried tobacco leaves and clay pipes, toys and soaps, cotton-bolls and threads, tankards and playing cards, a miniature anvil and hammer, nutmeg graters and walnuts, musical flutes and song sheets, a tiny yule log surrounded by straw and wheat stars, miniature wigs and shoe soles, wooden spoons and dried orange slices, twisted paper (into rolls or roses), and shiny tin leaves, to name a few.
What is even better than getting black and white grayscale photos to color? The original photos in full glorious color are also available on the Author / Photographer's Etsy shop as reference for when you color the illustrations at:
