Monthly Coloring Event: MerMay 2026

Q: Can I share the free page with friends?

Please do. Print extras, color with your kids, your friends or coworkers, anything except resell. And if you think they would enjoy our monthly events, please invite them into the Facebook group too. The page itself is for personal use only.

monthly event ✦

A new themed page every month. Free. Hand-drawn by me.

On the 3rd of every month I open a new coloring event in our Facebook group: one free A4 page to download and color, a brand new 6-page coloring book on Etsy (25% off during the event), and a friendly community of colorists from all over the world.

How it works

Three steps. No pressure. Just color.

Join the group

Request to join the Colorpini Facebook group. It's free; answer one short question to get in and you'll see every monthly post from then on.

Download the free page

On the 3rd of every month I open the event album in the group and post the new free coloring page right inside it. Print it or color it digitally, whatever you prefer. The matching 6-page coloring book is on Etsy at 25% off during the event.

Color & post in the event album

Color it however you want and post your finished piece into the same event album by the 30th, that's where I look for the winners, so anything posted only on the main wall can easily be missed. Each month I pick three favourites and feature them on the Winners post and right here on this page.

Past months

Each month I try to create a new 6-page coloring book on Etsy, and one of those pages I give to my coloring community as a fresh free page to color in the monthly event. Join the event in my Facebook group.

Community colorings

Every month I pick three favourites from the submissions in the group. Here is what colorists made of my pages.

Questions

Is the monthly page really free?

Yes. The single A4 page I post in the Facebook group at the start of each event is free for every group member. The matching 6-page coloring book is on Etsy at 25% off during the event.

When does each event run?

From the 3rd to the 30th of every month. I post the new page on the 3rd and pick the winners after the 30th.

Do I need to color digitally?

Not at all. Most members print the page and use colored pencils, markers or watercolors. A few color digitally on tablets. Both are welcome.

What happens if I miss a month?

Nothing. Skip a month, come back the next one. The group is about the joy of coloring, not the schedule.

Where do I post my coloring?

Always into the event album for the month, that's where I look when choosing the winners, so anything posted only on the main wall can easily be missed. If you want extra visibility, feel free to also share it on the main wall of the group; just make sure the event album version is there too.

How do you pick the favourites?

I look through every submission posted in the event album during the month and pick three I particularly love. They are featured in a Winners post inside the group, and shown on this page.

Can I share the free page with friends?

Please do, print extras, color with your kids, your friends or coworkers, anything except resell. And if you think they'd enjoy our monthly events, please invite them into the Facebook group too, the more colorists, the merrier the album. The page itself is for personal use only.

The monthly coloring event is honestly my favorite part of running Colorpini, seeing your color choices, your interpretations, your finished pieces every month is what keeps me drawing. Whether you join the Facebook group or follow along by email, I'm so glad you're here.

Hope to see your colorings soon,

Carolyn Pini
