Win a Coastal Watercolor Workbook and Paintbrush Set!
If you’ve ever wanted to learn how to paint with watercolors, here’s your chance to dive in! I’m thrilled to be giving away a copy of the new Coastal Watercolor Workbook, beautifully created by my friend Danielle of Finding Silver Pennies. With Christmas approaching, I thought this would be a fun giveaway and Danielle agreed. You can keep the watercolor workbook for yourself, or give it as a gift.
Many of you already know Danielle as a watercolor artist and fellow blogger who lives in the charming seaside town of Scituate, Massachusetts. Her surroundings serve as the heart of her art and the inspiration for her coastal style decorating. Her home is a classic example of coastal New England living.
It’s easy to see that ocean waves, weathered driftwood, and the soft seaside light of coastal New England inspire every brushstroke in her work. Her Coastal Watercolor Workbook captures thar serene coastal charm through guided tutorials and designs that celebrate life by the sea.
Inside the spiral-bound book, you’ll find step-by-step lessons and easy-to-follow techniques for painting ocean-inspired subjects like seashells, starfish, buoys, hydrangeas, and sailboats. Danielle includes a beautifully illustrated color wheel, guidance on brushstrokes and blending, and plenty of space to practice directly in the book. Each project is designed to help you build confidence while creating artwork reminiscent of breezy summer days and salt-kissed shores.
Along with the workbook, the winner will also receive a set of watercolor paintbrushes to help you start your own creative journey at home. If you don’t think you have an artistic bone in your body – give her book a try! You might just find you’re more talented than you thought, and her instructions make it easy.

Love this so much! I love drawing and painting and this would be so fun!
Oh I would love this! I’ve always wanted to learn how to do watercolor painting. I’ve worked with acrylic paints but not too much with watercolor. Just crayola paints with my kids! This looks like the perfect way to start a new hobby!
Such a wonderful giveaway. I have been wanting to learn how to do watercolor painting. What a great way to learn. I live at the coast and love that this watercolor workbook is focused on coastal things.
Thanks for the chance to win this wonderful gift.I took an Art course in college and painted a piece with flowers that my daughter has hanging on her wall at her home.My grandaughter had the gift ,but was tragically killed in a hit and run DUI at 21.
It’s been such a long time since I’ve tested my artistic abilities. I have always admired watercolor and would love to learn more about it and give it a try.
What a wonderful thing to do as it gets colder. The book looks fun and you would be able to learn how to do your own paintings. Thank you Jennifer.
Do I even dare to try to be able to paint like Danielle? What a blessing that would be! My daughter paints and would certainly wrestle me for the book and brushes. I look forward to your blog every day. Thank you for the constant inspiration!
I have always enjoyed Danielle’s books and I would love to have this one. Watercolor is my favorite medium.
What a great book. I would love to learn how to paint with water colors. I am retired and have to time to fully enjoy this book.
Thanks for the opportunity.
I would love the chance to win this beautiful set! My granddaughters and I love to spend weekend mornings doing all sorts of crafts and fun things together. This would add a little more “grown up” element to our fun.
Thank you for the opportunity!
I would love to win the watercolor workbook for my sister for Christmas! She has expressed a desire to learn to paint in watercolor for years but doesn’t know how to get started. We often joke that I got the painting gene, she got the sewing gene; she became an excellent seamstress while I became a painter. She has a great eye for mixing colors and patterns from her experience working with fabric, which would translate well to painting. She also has a love for elements found in nature. I would love to see her accomplish that long-held desire to paint and this workbook would be the perfect gift for her to begin learning. Thank you for the opportunity to win this book!
I absolutely love her art and this book looks like a fun way to get started with watercolor!
Danielle’s work is such an inspiration and love her attention to detail! I am self taught at Watercolor and would love the opportunity to be guided step by step with her beautiful illustrations! My favorite part about Watercolor painting is creating a piece and to give it to others to enjoy. 💜
This is an awesome giveaway. On my bucket list is giving myself the opportunity to be more creative, try new things, and watercolor was on the list. Thank you. Pick me please!
What a thoughtful thing to do, Jen! This will make a wonderful gift for someone personally or, as you said, to give as a gift. Fall has finally come to Ocala FL. It is a chilling 41 degrees at 8:28 this beautiful, sunny morning. 🙂
I would love to try watercolor, I’ve been thinking for awhile now that I need a new hobby to try!
I am a self-taught artist and teach watercolor to adult students with mental health issues. I am always looking for ways to improve my work and inspire my students. Your workbook would be a lovely way to translate happy, calm and peaceful places to my classroom. Thank you.
What a sweet gift The Watercolor Workbook will be! I am STILL learning how to watercolor! There is so much to learn. And you can teach an old dog new tricks – at 76 years old I figured it was time to start learning and at 78, I’m not as good at it as I would like but it still brings me joy. I would give this gift however to my 10 year old granddaughter who is now learning herself. She has become quite the artist over the past year, and it warms my heart to know that I’ve played a part in bringing her desire to paint to the surface! Whoever wins this book will be pleased!
I’ve always wanted to experiment with watercolors, and what better way than with the beautiful colors and images of the coast!!
Hi, there! I used to do oil painting, but never liked the messy cleanup. I did create a picture with acrylics that turned out really well and I want to do more. I would love to win your prize to help me get restarted into this art form.
Thank you.
I love Danielle’s art! I’ve always wanted to try watercolor painting, but I never knew how to begin. This looks like a good way to start. Thank you!
I love that you are blogging friends with Danielle. I have been enjoying posts from both of you for years!
Oh, how I would love to learn how to paint. Especially the flowers!
I would love to do this!
I recently retired!
Would love to learn how to paint with watercolors. This has been on my bucket list for a while. Thank you for the opportunity to win a book that teaches you this skill.
We live by the water and I’ve always loved to paint water scenes. I am hoping my grand daughter would take up water color and enjoy it as much as I. This would be the perfect Christmas gift!
I loved the new watercolor book featuring coastal inspiration. I live four miles from the Atlantic Ocean and would love to learn to capture the beauty through watercolors. Thank you for introducing this book.
I would love to win this. I love to draw and have a desire to learn watercolor techniques. Watercolor paintings are great and so relaxing to look at from other mediums.
I love this watercolor book! I’ve been wanting to try that medium with my grandchildren since we do a lot of arts and crafts together!
I have wanted to learn to paint with watercolor for many years. Now that I am retired, I now have the time. As a lifelong New Englander, I get so much inspiration by my surroundings. The book seems to depict everything I would want to display in my coastal inspired home. I really enjoy your blogs and look forward to them. Thanks for bringing them to us.
Would love the watercolor notebook to try my hand at it.
Thanks for the chance.
Oh my gosh. I would love to win a copy of the Watercolor book and paint brushes. Thank you!
I’d really enjoy your blog! I’d love the chance to win the watercolor workbook!! I’ve never painted but I’d like to learn. My 80 year old aunt took up painting never having done it before. Her paintings have been sold at showings and hang in family members home.
I loved the idea of a watercolor workbook and this summer I bought one for each of my grand-daughters. We found them at a gift shop on the East coast. They enjoyed them on rainy days, times they were looking for a craft and even shared with some friends. I see there are some cute items I can use for stocking stuffers this holiday.
Thank you for the chance to enter the give-away.
This book looks encouraging, not intimidating. Would make a great gift for the hesitant artist. Thanks for the chance.
DANIELLE!! You live in and create BEAUTY! Thank you for giving us a glimpse inside! 🩵💜💙
Have always wanted to experiment with watercolors. This would be a great chance to start.

I love the coastal calm and inspiring activity all in one! I’ve wanted to learn watercolor as I’m drawn to prints and cards of it, but how neat to do it myself! Plus, her designs are so special!
Thanks for the awesome opportunity!
Love your blog, can’t wait to get it in my inbox!
I am a senior who finds myself with time on my hands and the need to fill it. I am a fan of Danielle ‘s and would like to get back to trying my hand at watercolors.
I keep trying to learn watercolor but always seem to give up…this could be a great way to practice and learn! Thank you!
I love Danielle’s Watercolor Book!
I love watercolors and want to give them a try. I wish I lived close enough to take one of Danielle’s classes. I find her so inspiring.
The workbook is ADORABLE! As a beginner, I’d love to have a workbook with a sea side theme!
I would love to win that gorgeous workbook. Water coloring is my favorite!
I love watercolors!!! what fun work book!
Danielle’s inspirational watercolor digest is just what I need to get out of my creative slump! I have painted in oils and acrilics in the past but just can’t seem to get inspired to paint with that medium. I have not tried watercolor painting and would love to learn something new. I am always in envy of Danielle’s coastal style. Thank You Danielle for your free offer!
I have always wanted to try painting in watercolor! This book looks like the perfect way to start!
I’m a big fan of Danielle’s work. I live two towns over from her and can totally relate to her seaside objects. I would love to learn how to recreate them in watercolors.
I would love to win this! I have always wanted to paint and I think this would be a great place for me to start with watercolors.

That looks like a fantastic guide for watercolor. My son was an art major in college, and when he moved to CT for work I inherited all of his art supplies, including an extensive set of watercolors along with brushes and supplies. I have dabbled with them, and tried to follow some tutorials on the net, but the workbook setup of this book looks like a winning idea. I love the soft look of watercolor painting and would love to learn the ins and outs of the painting tichnique.
As my son moved to CT, my daughter moved to Chicago. I love when you show the architecture of different areas near Chicago, and different neighborhoods around the Chicago area. It gives me ideas of what I would like to do or see when we go to visit her. I’m located in Central New York, Syracuse.
It’s such a great book and I could use practice doing watercolors!
Hello!!! I have followed Danielle….for quite a while…..since her furniture painting days. I love her older home. I am trying to get into watercolor. She makes it look so easy…it is not.
I will check around your blog. I am so sad a lot of blogs have gone away.
Nice to meet you!!!
Hi Jennifer,,,, I would love to win the watercolor workbook for my daughter who is learning to watercolor. She has taken classes with Danielle at a local shop here in Massachusetts. She is a love and so talented . Her work is beautiful, We especially love her calendars and look forward to them every year. Thank you
As my kids get older and more independent I’m finding more time for myself. Im trying new hobbies and activities to see what interest me. I have painting on my list of activities to try. And the coastal inspired book feels perfect as I grew up next to the ocean and always feel pulled in that direction.
I have been a fan of Danielle’s for many years and love her work. I’d love to win this to paint something for my moms beach house!
I would like to win the watercolor workbook and paintbrush set, it would be a fine gift for my mother who recently discovered the wonderful world of watercolor painting as a hobby.
What a terrific idea! I would love to learn how to watercolor and the designs so remind me of when I lived in New England!
I love watercolor and would love to win so that I can get started learning how to do it.
I would live to learn watercolor painting. I feel inspired for creativity cause of my flower garden which brings in bees & butterflies, I also have a pond, so lots of different wading birds
Thank you for hosting this giveaway, Jennifer, and sharing my new watercolor workbook. Creating this hook was a dream come true for me! What a treat to read all these lovely comments xx
