Nowruz coloring pages: haft-sin table, goldfish, painted eggs

Coloring pages for children in the days before Nowruz, at home or in a Persian school abroad. The three subjects are things on and around the new year table: the haft-sin spread, two goldfish beside a hyacinth, and a basket of six painted eggs. Each is drawn in closed outlines a child can color. Bold lines suit young children, fine detail suits older ones, and Persian motif panels bring in boteh and tile patterns.

Frequently asked questions

Are the pages in color?

No. Each page is black ink on white paper, ready to color by hand.

Which style is for a young child?

Bold: thick uniform outlines and large open areas. Fine detail has thinner lines and smaller closed shapes for older children.

Do the pages have any text?

No. There is no lettering, no text and no watermark on the pages.

Can I ask for a different picture?

Yes. Type the subject you want, such as a mirror or a rabbit, and the same line style is drawn for it.

About toile

This page is a showcase and a starting point: nine samples already rendered, three readings of the pack crossed with three styles, each shown at the size and ratio it was made for. Take any of them further on the wall with a few words, or ask for all nine again under your own direction; a sign-in keeps what you make, and it is free while Toile is new. The recipe behind each sample — the subject, the style, the palette, the framing — travels with the image rather than staying private to the render: it is in the alt text of every sample and in the page's own structured data, so a search engine reads the same handles a person would.
