2015 CHRISTMAS PRESENT trends have been dominated by something a little different – the adult colouring book.

And there’s now a potential gamechanger out there for those who want to relax with a bit of foul-mouthed colouring.

English illustrator Sarah Bigwood launched a Kickstarter to fund her sweary adult colouring book last month – and has already raised over €18000 to make the book a reality, and the book has caught everyone’s attention.

It will be full of choice language intricately drawn and waiting to be coloured

As she describes on the Kickstarter page: “The sweary colouring book will contain 20 hand drawn swears, on single sided high quality paper.”

And under the ‘risks and challenges’ section of the fundraising page Sarah answers:

I anticipate no risks with this project

Confidence.
