Patriotic Star Mandala Coloring Page

This one arranges stars into a mandala: an outer ring of long pointed stars, an inner ring of closed flower buds, and a large blank circle at the center, all held inside a double ring border. It is the sheet to hand an adult or a teenager who finds cartoon pages too easy, and it works as a quiet hour rather than a quick craft. Symmetry does most of the work, so pick two or three colors and repeat them ring by ring instead of treating every shape as a separate decision. Everything is left open and empty inside, so markers and colored pencils both behave on it. Print it on heavier paper if you plan to use alcohol markers, because they will bleed through copy paper.
