4 Cool Ways to Color Your Walnut Coloring Pages
You’ll need some crayons and cardboard for this craft, but everything else on our list should be readily available. These walnut coloring sheets make wonderful paper crafts!
1. Make a Textured Walnut Shell
You can draw your whole walnut image first, coloring just the shell light brown. Then trace the grooves on it using a darker colored pencil. Add some little patches of crumpled brown tissue paper to the image as well.
But leave your kernels nice and smooth for contrast in textures!
2. Create a Harvest Basket Collage
To color the basket design on your own, you can use any method you prefer—you can glue your image onto thin cardboard and surround the basket with additional pieces of paper “walnuts” (overlapping their edges), creating a full look.
You can tuck a few cutout leaves in the back of some of the shells for fall décor if desired!
Your final project can turn out very nicely and would be a nice addition to your kitchen decor!
3. Decorate a Recipe Card
You can use our walnut brownie coloring page or walnut bread coloring sheet.
It’s fun to color the picture (which you’ll put on the front of your recipe card), then write down all your favorite baking instructions inside.
And colored pencils are perfect for the little chopped-up walnut bits.
4. Build a Walnut Study Card
Color the picture showing the inside of a shell, then mount it on a piece of construction paper and label it with the words “shell,” “kernel,” and “inner divider.” You can make this into a fun nature study card by adding a whole walnut drawing as well.
Last but not least, don’t forget to add your own colors and crafty touches to these walnut coloring pages!
