"Eleanor could have done an end of year promotion on her Substack - and I'm not blaming anyone who does, these are tough times - but instead she chose to gift us coloring sheets and for that I am so grateful. We need more of this, always."
- Fran Liberatore

Over the last few days I’m sure your inboxes have been filled with emails offering huge discounts and encouraging you to buy things you don’t really want or need. No judgement, it’s great to get a good price on a item you have been wanting for a while but so often we get sucked into adding those extra items in our shopping cart that we don’t really need. Personally, I not a fan of the festival of consumerism BFCM and Christmas has become. It gives me a sick feeling in my stomach thinking about what we are doing to our planet and what kind of future our children might have.

This year with my business Mini Mad Things, I wanted to do things a little differently. Instead of encouraging you to buy more stuff, I created a free gift for everyone who has supported my little business. I’m also in the process of moving my business away from selling physical items (although I do have a soft spot for art books, so I might keep selling those!) and focusing on selling digital printable activity sheets, which you can print at home and have minimal environmental impact.

I spent the last few days drawing 4 beautiful colouring in sheets that share messages of peace, unity and protecting our planet over the festive season, and throughout the year. These colouring sheets are free for everyone to download, just follow the link below to get your copy.
