Princess Coloring Pages – The Artists And The Bride

I’ve finally gotten around to posting this new collection of princess coloring pages.

The first up is a princess bride. Or so I presume judging by the veil and the flowers.



By the way, just cause this girl is a bride doesn’t mean the dress has to be all white. If we presume that this princess is from the medieval ages or thereabouts, then white really wasn’t the color of choice for the wedding gowns. Thus any combination of funky crayons will do just fine here.

Now these next three princesses have a definite artistic flare to them.

This princess is an aspiring dancer:



You can almost feel her float gracefully in the air.

And this princess is an accomplished artist:



I pressume she is drawing her humble abode…

While this coloring page features a princess playing guitar.



In fact, this is my favorite picture of the set. I can almost hear her romantic ballad.

PS: On a different note, check out the new The Princess and the Frog Coloring Pages. Looks very promising.

Classic Princess Coloring Pages

While in the last post it was all about breaking the rules, the princess coloring pages here follow the cannon to the letter. Frills, gowns, hair and crowns. (Whoa… I’m a poet…)

So here is a princess with a really wild skirt and over-throw. She also has the full set of jewelry (bracelets, necklace and earrings), and high-fashion hair décor.



This coloring page features a princess, a crown, a castle and even a romantic moonlight…



This princess is dancing. Very cool ballroom windows in the back. Enough to bring out the interior decorator in the coloring artist.



And this:



Well… I thought the classic set needed a bit of a splash! So this is a wild girl also dancing… Ties in well with the previous picture, don’t you think?

That’s it for now.

Print and enjoy.

Breaking the princess coloring rules.

Generally princess coloring pages follow an unspoken cannon: Big hair, tiara, puffy skirts and frills.

And I think those are great. Frills have always been my favorite to draw and color.

But there is no reason to limit the princesses to that cannon. Thinking out of the box can be very useful now and then.

Therefore, here is a set of princesses that don't fit the stereotype, but are still fun.

Print the pictures and enjoy.

Free Princess Coloring Collection

Hi everybody…

I’ve got more princesses for the crayons. These coloring pages are now available for print at the printer near you :)

Today’s features are:

A gipsy style princess with flowery shawl and skirt tie. Check out the beaded necklace, earrings and bracelets. And of course, a rose in her hair.



Next I’ve got a stylish princess with a modern cut dress and a classy updo.



This is a princess coloring page with lots of frills. These ribbons can be colored in many different coordinating or contrasting colors – whatever suits your style.



This young princess looks like a bride. There is also a bouquet of gorgeous flowers in her hand.



Hope you enjoy these coloring pages. As always, I’ll be posting more soon.

Printable Princesses to Color and Admire

Four more princess coloring pages are here.

First, here is another queen (or princess?) of the night.



A very whimsical lady ready for a masquerade. I think this gown is made of very light fabrick, so translucent type markers would do best. Or silver type crayons for sparkles:



A princess and a dog. This is a very noble looking Dalmatian. And I love the maple leaves in her hand. Great alternative to a flower bouquet in the fall.



And this is a simple princess picture for younger girls. Gorgeous beading in her hair.



The cool thing about coloring pages is the free run of imagination they inspire. I love the ones where princesses are displayed on their own, and the girl can draw in any background she wants. Castles, parks, rivers, stars… I used to love to draw elaborate frames. That was my thing, I guess. A friend of mine was very good at castles, but I never quite mastered the task. My castles always looked like the tower of Pisa – ready to topple any second. Though, I must admit, the frames on the windows where quite a work of art.

Anyways, that’s enough for today. I will post more free printable princesses to color tomorrow.

See yah later.

Princess Coloring Pages - Assorted

We’ve got more classic Disney princess coloring pages for you. And a few non-Disney, but beautiful princesses nevertheless. Free. The coloring pages. Not the princesses ;)

Here we have Ariel, the Little Mermaid, and Snow White with what looks like a most scrumptious pie I could really eat right now…





And then we have a few princesses that emphasize the most important thing in a princess coloring page – the gowns! Just look at all the layers and frills. You’ll need a whole box of crayons just to color them all.

And, of course, there are some wonderful accessories, like mirrors and hand fan and candle… And HAIR! It’s all about the hair! A princess has to have long luxurious hair. That’s a rule. I don’t know who wrote it, but it’s out there… Sometimes I wonder if it was started by shampoo companies, to prep the future customers :)

Or, and if there is fancy long hair, there is usually some kind of tiara as well. Or an elaborate accessory. I mean, how else would we know it’s a princess, right?










That’s it for now.

Happy printing and coloring!

Princess Coloring Pages - Aurora the Sleeping Beauty

Ok, here are a few coloring pages of princess Aurora, the Sleeping Beauty (though she is remarkably awake on these pictures :) )

Did you know that the first Sleeping Beauty story was published way back when in 1697? I didn’t either… But wiki told me so. Though I did know that it was written by Charles Perrault. I just wasn’t sure when…

Nevertheless, the Disney version is incredibly popular, and it’s the one most girls are more likely to know nowadays. So Aurora looking like this, is the one embedded in our minds.

And, of course, the unforgettable music from Tchaikovsky’s “Sleeping Beauty” ballet, seamlessly woven into cartoon. Unfortunately, there is no such thing as coloring pages for music… Unless you like doodling on sheet music ;)



Didn’t think so :)

I wonder, had this story been written now, what would be used instead of the spindle?

Ok, ok, nuf talking…

Here are those princess coloring pages:








Happy printing :)

Two More Disney Princesses for Your Colouring Pleasure

And in this edition of this blog I'm happy to announce two more Free Disney Princess Coloring Pages. Fully printable, of course.

So, now we have the beautiful Snow White surrounded by her animal support group.



I love Snow White's hair bow. And I think the animals cuteness factor is a definete 10 out of 10.

And here we have Ariel, from "The Little Mermaid".



Princess Ariel certainly knows what she wants. And it ain't swimming. So please color accordingly. Princess Ariel coloring pages need some bold red hair, people!

Come to think of it, there is no reason to print it on white paper. Print this page on blue, and you'll have ready made ocean!

Have fun!

More Free Princess Coloring Pages

Well, it’s been a good day so I got together a couple more princess coloring pages. Free and printable! Just for you! Ain’t I wonderful?...

I’m really getting into it. The girl inside is waking up and wants some serious coloring. The whole elaborate gown thing is coming back like a torrent.

So, what to do with these pictures? Well, naturally first you have to print them. Just right click on the picture and select print. Or you can download them and then print.

Let me know what other coloring pages you would like to see. I plan to put out more pictures about once a week or so. Some days I’m more inspired than others…

And of course, don’t forget – for a fun coloring experience you need a good set of pencils, crayons and markers. I’m sure the imagination is already there. Some people are so creative, it boggles my mind the kind of amazing projects they make from simple coloring pages. Greeting cards are one good example. I’ve seen people print a coloring page onto different color pages, and then glue on stars, fabrics and various other crafty little thingies. I shall post some links here at a later day. But for starters, a lady over at this site has some amazingly creative ideas. Check out the link I provided to see the art form she created from a simple coloring page printed of the internet. (I’m not affiliated with her in any way. I’m just blown away by her creativity.)

A little background on the pictures below.



This princess has a layered dress. And each can be colored a different colour! I thought there was something inspiring about a simple top with an elaborately layered skirt. Yet it surprisingly feels light and airy…



Remember I told you that a princess coloring page is all about the hair? I meant it. I have yet to find a popular princess image without long luscious hair. This one has a bit of a Celtic feel to it, don’t you think?

So print them up, as many copies as you like, and have a ball!

Girls and Princess Coloring Pages

Why do girls like princess coloring pages so much? Why not something else? Truthfully, I have no idea. It’s been a while since I’ve passed the stage of been a girl, but I still clearly remember the all consuming joy of coloring the princess ball gowns…

I think it has a lot to do with the fantasy world of the “dress up”. I remember as a girl spending countless hours drawing and coloring tiaras and the most elaborate dress trimmings imaginable. The seams had to have unique gold designs, the shoes had to match the jewelry, and the hair… Oh, that’s a whole story of it’s own. Every princess had to have the most gorgeous and longest hair possible, albeit it could be up in a very elaborate updo.

With the abundance of free coloring pages on the internet, there is no need to go out and buy the books. Just print out some pages and give them to your girls. Ask them which princess is their favorite. It’s a great conversation starter. You just might find out that your daughter loves coloring Jasmine because she loves animals and she is so brave, or that she loves Bell because she is very smart.

A princess coloring page does more than just the hand and eye coordination. It brings out the designer in the girl. Very often girls draw in details that are not present in the original page. I’ve seen countless additions of necklaces and earrings. Gloves and hats. This develops a sense of beauty and proportion, an eye for a detail, and appreciation of fashion… Very useful attributes for any woman.

There are some parents who are concerned that beautiful princess coloring pictures develop wrong stereotypes in girls. I beg to differ. A princess is not so enchanting because she is beautiful (though that also plays a role). But a fairy tale princess is first and foremost enchanting because she is kind. Because she is overall good. Just think about the Snow White’s wicked step mother. She is very beautiful. Yet most girls prefer to color in Snow White, because she is good. Other common princess characteristics are loyalty, resourcefulness, respect for others… A very noble set of aspirations indeed.

But at the end of the day girls want to color princesses because they are girls. So let them be. This time flies by so fast – so start saving for the real prom dress…
