Free Adult Coloring Pages You’ll Love (Over 100+!)

You’ll love these 100+ free printable adult coloring pages! Get faves including all occasion, nature, quotes, holidays, and more.

Scroll down to the bottom of the post to get a video of something you can make with your coloring pages once they’re complete! It’s a fun craft idea so I’ll let you check it out.

Free adult coloring pages - over one hundred

I’m totally obsessed with adult coloring! And free adult coloring pages so that I can practice my craft.

Not so very long ago, I wrote a guide on how to do it – because let me be honest, as an adult I need to be told how to relax. In that guide, I also reviewed various coloring tools and which ones were my favorites.

I’ve been to each of these links personally and have either printed and colored them (or they are on my list). There’s a ton and it’s going to take me awhile to work through of them . . . but that’s what I love!

This list should keep you busy for, well, forever! Visit the links below to download your favorite free coloring pages.

What Paper Should I Use for Printing my Pages?

Standard printer paper is typically 20 – 40 lb. I like to use 60 or 80 lb. paper to print my pages (which is typically at most stores where you’d buy printer paper).

When the paper is a bit thicker, it makes the colors more vibrant. Standard printer paper is very thin!

The 60 or 80 lb. paper is also easier to use in crafts. If I know I’m going to Mod Podge the pages, I might even print them on white cardstock!

What Colored Pencils Should I Use?

It’s funny you should ask, because I’ve tested a bunch of colored pencils myself and found the best colored pencils for adult coloring books (and they work for printables too).

To give you an idea of what to expect, I found the Pentel Arts set of 24 colored pencils to be the best cheap colored pencils. You need to see my other picks though – there are some fun options!


Now onto the pages! NOTE: You don’t need to pay for any of these pages, however – you might need to sign up for some mailing lists depending on the blog (most are just straight download with no sign up).

There are plenty of options if you don’t feel comfortable signing up for a list, although you can unsubscribe after you get your page. If that doesn’t appeal, you’ll still find something you like I’m sure. You can also check Etsy for some paid, inexpensive options.

Enjoy your freebies!

Thanks for putting this list together. Free coloring pages are great - I think a lot of the coloring programs at hospitals, nursing homes, and community centers couldn't exist without them. Some of the really high quality coloring books are just so expensive!

While free coloring pages are great and give a lot of people the opportunity to get back into coloring, it's important to make sure the artists are getting credit for there work. I used to love going on Pinterest and finding thousands of free coloring pages until I realized that a lot of them were stolen. Generally, if the artist of the page is not cited, I'm skeptical that a website has permission to give away the page.

I know it's tempting to download all the free pages you can, but if we don't have some respect for the artists that create these beautiful works, what's their incentive to keep making coloring pages?

Hi Sue! There's no way to send them - but what you can do is go to a FedEx Kinkos and print them. It's inexpensive when you are just doing black and white copies! :D
