Heart Inside A Leafy Wreath Coloring Page

A ring of pointed leaves circles this page, and a single plain heart sits quietly in the middle of it. Every leaf carries one line down its length, splitting it into two halves and doubling the number of shapes to fill without making any of them small or fiddly. That structure is what makes the sheet satisfying. Work around the ring alternating two shades and the wreath reads as a proper garland. Give every leaf its own color and it turns into something closer to autumn. The leaves overlap slightly where they meet, so a few of them sit in front of their neighbors. Working out which is which before you start is half the fun, and it teaches a child to read depth in a flat drawing. The heart in the middle is small next to the ring around it, which keeps all the attention on the border. Leave that heart white and the wreath frames an empty space ready for a photograph, a pressed flower or a short handwritten note once the sheet is trimmed.
