About the Mystic Flower Mandala

The Mystic Flower Mandala is a 6-fold flower mandala: every motif repeats 6 times around the center. It is built from 5 rings of dots, teardrops, petals, spikes and arches, from a small flower in the middle to the wide outer border.

This is a medium mandala with more and smaller spaces – ideal for teens and adults who enjoy a longer, mindful coloring session. Most people finish it in about an hour or more with fine-tip markers or sharp colored pencils.

How to Color This Mandala

Start in the center and work outwards ring by ring, so your hand doesn't smudge finished parts. Choose 3 to 5 colors and repeat them, so the mandala looks balanced.

• Dots: dots are perfect for a pop of accent color, like gold or a bright contrast.
• Teardrops: a tiny white spot left uncolored makes them look like shiny drops.
• Petals: shade each petal darker at the base and lighter at the tip for a soft 3D look.
• Spikes: pointed shapes look great with a gradient – dark at the base, light at the point.
• Arches: color every second arch the same to create a rhythm around the ring.

Color Ideas

• Treat each ring like a layer of petals: pinks and corals in the middle, greens on the outside like leaves.
• Pastel: baby pink, mint, lilac and butter yellow.
• Monochrome: five shades of one color, from very light to very dark.
