The [IKEA](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vibrant-homeware) coloring book is now available for those who have always wanted to decorate their own furniture. As [adult coloring books](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ai-coloring-book-generator) continue to grow in popularity, it seems that brands are now looking for ways to get in on the action.

Rather than release a physical coloring book, IKEA has posted five printable pages to it's website. The pages feature a swath of their most popular products arranged in eye-catching designs. Detailing everything from kitchenware to light fixtures, the illustrations can be used for design inspiration or simply as a form of relaxation.

While the illustrations may seem like an unusual form of branding, the IKEA coloring book allows consumers to enjoy the brand's products in a more fun and personalized way.
