How It Works
Pick Your Artwork
Choose from blankets, backpacks, crossbody bags, and more. Each one features our original artwork on specialty fabric made specifically for coloring.
Make It Your Own
Permanent markers work best on our fabric. Colors stay crisp, don't bleed between zones, and won't fade. Graphmaster markers from our shop are the perfect starting point.
Keep It Forever
More than a coloring book you close and forget. It's something you'll use every single day, hand colored by you.
About Us
In 2006, a girl in my class had a black-and-white Jansport covered in flowers that looked perfect for coloring. I searched every store until I found one. The moment I tried to color it in, the flowers turned into a muddy mess.
I didn't give up on the idea. Until we developed our specialty fabric. It doesn't bleed, and colors stay bright. That's what makes Coloring Your Own the original coloring blanket, and nothing else comes close.

Markers are sold separately. Graphmaster markers are our top pick for this fabric and are available directly in our shop.
Yes. Wait 30 days after coloring, run through one dry dryer cycle on high to heat-set, wash cold with white vinegar, air dry only.
Everyone. Kids and teens love the creative freedom. Adults use it as a screen break or a cozy creative project. It also makes a genuinely great gift.
No. CYO uses a custom-developed specialty fabric — a bright white canvas base with a velvet-feel print that keeps colors crisp and permanent. Nothing else on the market is made this way.
