Are you looking for an awesome girl’s night in party theme? If so, I have the perfect suggestion for you and it happens to follow suit with a hot trend in the adult relaxation world! How about an adult coloring book party? Ok, so maybe you chuckled to yourself but seriously, all my adult girlfriends are loving this relaxing past time that helps you to exercise your creative outlets all while chit chatting, and enjoying some snacks, and drinks!
So my adult coloring book party was set up for 3-4 adults. Since many of them are starting to suffer from arthritis (hello office work jobs), and headaches I made sure to have a bottle of Advil Liqui-Gels EZ Open.
This bottle cap is easier to open for people with Arthritis (verses other child-proof varieties of Advil). However, you will want to keep it up, up, and away from children since it is so easy to twist off.
For us folks with achy hands, and joints it is a lifesaver! I purchased a large bottle from Walmart along with some snack ingredients for our party. Speaking of arthritis, today actually happens to be World Arthritis Day (October 12th).
Arthritis affects over 53 million Americans so it is great that Advil is accommodating them with their EZ Open Bottle. When it comes to Advil, nothing’s proven stronger on Arthritis and other joint pain.* Plus, the medicine in Advil is the one doctors recommend most for joint pain. More than the medicine in Tylenol® or Aleve®.**
Ok, now back to the party! So this was so fun for me to set up because I actually have always loved to color!
I was always that child who would win the coloring contests so I thought it would fun to have prizes for the best coloring page! I bought some “color yourself” pouches, and a decorative set of colored pencils for the winner(s).
I displayed those on the table among other things. Now onto some fun party hosting tips!
Tips on what your Adult Coloring Book Party should have:
Consider painting basic mason jars with chalk paint to add some snazz to your tabletop.
Washi tape is also a great choice and can take a mason jar from drab to fab quickly.
Cloth table cloths work best and look nicer. To get the wrinkles out, pop them in the dryer on perm press for 5 mins.
For drinks, I always serve water first and save the good stuff for the kitchen-wink, wink. I decorated my water bottles with coloring books tags for added effect and removed the store-bought labels.
Appetizers should always be things that do not require heating and are inexpensive and quick to put together. The cottage cheese cucumber cupcakes were a no-brainer and cane be made by slicing cucumbers into 2 inch chunks, gently coring out the middles and adding a dollop of cottage cheese, and half a cherry tomato to the top.
A veggie tray was also a great choice, and can be prepared ahead of time.
No party is complete without some sort of chips and dip, or something sweet. I opted for a slightly healthier version by using sour dough pretzels to pair with french onion dip. Rainbow cookies were also ideal because well,…this is a colorful party after all!
Cheese and pepperoni are also a great choice and so easy to set up. Don’t forget the toothpicks.
I purchased an assortment of adult coloring books on Amazon and got quite a few for my money. I also bought some coloring book place mats which can be colored, and then laminated.
Colored pencils, gel pens, and markers are a must for adult coloring. I purchased an assortment to fit everyone’s preference for coloring.
Lastly, for the paper ware, I found the cutest black and white paisley design. I think it is a great choice to tie the theme together.
I really love how this adult coloring party came together and know it will make for hours spent with good company. Consider a party like this for your next girl’s night in fun. Don’t forget the Advil EZ Open Bottles either! You never know who will need some to cope with any arthritis pain in their hands!

I have always liked to color… did it while pregnant years ago. and as a senior citizen I still like it. I bought several adult color books at Dollar tree and one at wal-mart, It is fun. I have some pages I only do a little coloring on as i am actually working on finishing a page.
for me coloring is fun and relaxing especially when tv is not good and you are tired of cleaning and doing other housework.

I have never bought a adult color book. They definitely do look like they would be relaxing! I could use something to destress myself. It would be fun to do this with friends for sure.
