Well, I bet you can’t guess how this maze got it’s name?
It’s another maze made along the edge of a piece of paper. Since the space was long and thin like a bookmark, I thought I would make a maze that would look cool on a bookmark. And if you need one, just print this out on some cardstock or glue it to recycled cardboard. Instant cool bookmark. :)
Anyway, there is two ways to “start” and one way to “finish”. Enjoy!
Time for another coloring book maze! That’s rights, two in a row using the same coloring book as the last maze.
This time I tried my hand on a cute butterfly. It seems fitting because it says on the page to “draw your own designs” on the wings.
Before...
…And after. I think it looks great. I wanted to have the “finish” in all parts of the body, but I thought that would get in the way. Better to have it just in the abdomen, the butterfly looks happier this way.
Anyway, there is two ways to “start” and one way to “finish”. Enjoy!
Finally it’s the next in my series of coloring book mazes, where I take pages from a simple coloring book and turn them into mazes (see Maze Number 122: Coloring Book Snail).
I’m still using the same coloring book (made by bendon Inc. and bought from Dollar Tree). This time I used a shark coloring page.
So here’s before…
…and after. I wanted to use the teeth in the maze more, but I thought it would make it more difficult to solve the maze. Plus it’s nice to see a smile.
I can’t say if the maze shark looks more or less fierce than the original. It still looks pretty cool and that’s what matters.
Anyway, there is two ways to “start” and one way to “finish”. Enjoy!
Well, where do I begin? I had intended to post this maze weeks ago, but then there was the problem.
One of the programs I use for my mazes suddenly decided it did not like this particular one and corrupted the file, again, and again, ….and again. Hence the name. I finally found a work around and got this darn thing ready and up, but it still baffles me. It has never done anything like this before.
Anyway, there is just one way to “start” and one way to “finish”. Enjoy!
For some reason, while drawing this maze I starting thinking of aliens.
Something about the shape made me think of the movie E.T., especially about his fingers. Maybe it’s a sign that I should watch that movie again, or that I spend too much time staring at pink mazes.
Anyway, there is just one way to “start” and one way to “finish”. Enjoy!
While I was drawing this maze, I had an annoying song stuck in my head. It just kept repeating over and over, almost like the turns on this maze only worse. Enough to name the maze after it, sort of.
Anyway, there is just one way to “start” and one way to “finish”. Enjoy!
This is a very special maze. It was made for two friends of mine who got married just last week.
The reception was held on the 3rd of June, so I used that date as the base for this maze. After drawing and editing, I actually had this maze printed on a canvas to give as a gift. Hopefully, they will enjoy it for many years.
Anyway, there is just one way to “start” and one way to “finish”. Enjoy!
This maze gets its name in a roundabout way. The “start” and “finish” have a very similar shape to them, so the word “double” comes to mind. This for some reason causes the jingle for Double Mint gum to pop into my mind. So let’s just call it the “Double Mint” maze.
Anyway, there is just one way to “start” and one way to “finish”. Enjoy!
When drawing last week’s maze, I had a small amount of space left on the paper. It was just large enough to squeeze in another little maze. Thus the squeezed maze is born!
Anyway, there is just one way to “start” and one way to “finish”. Enjoy!
This maze is the first of an interesting new series. Coloring book mazes! Mazes made using images from cute kids coloring books.
Here’s the coloring book, its a giant coloring and activity book made by Bendon that I bought at Dollartree.
And here’s the page I used. A cute and happy looking snail.
That turned into this maze, looks kind of cool now. I used the eyes for the “starts” and the tail for the “finish”. The fun part was drawing at the shell and the antennae.
Anyway, there’s two ways to “start” and one way to “finish”. Enjoy!
Another alphabet maze, this time is the letter “H”. Surprise, surprise. That’s what happens when they’re in alphabetical order.
This one was a little tricky to draw because the shape of the letters makes it difficult to find a place to stick the “start” and “finish”.
Anyway, there is just one way to “start” and one way to “finish”. Enjoy!
Continuing the alphabet mazes with the letter “G”. This one was particularly amusing to draw. I like drawing letters with tails like the lower case “g” because of the way the path flows around them. Makes it more relaxing too.
Anyway, there is just one way to “start” and one way to “finish”. Enjoy!
Continuing on with the alphabet mazes, this week is the letter “F”. It a was a fairly fun maze to draw, and completed in a freakishly fast time frame. How many more “f” words do you think I add here? A few too many?
Anyway, there is just one way to “start” and one way to “finish” (7!). Enjoy!
It’s been a while since I made an alphabet maze, so I decided to get cracking on it. The next few mazes will be letters starting with this one, the letter “e”. It’s a pretty simple maze drawn around an uppercase and lower case “e”.
Anyway, there is just one way to “start” and one way to “finish”. Enjoy!
When drawing these mazes, mistakes do happen especially when working with pen. These mistakes are usually edited out when I scan the mazes onto my computer.
This particular maze had an especially large number of mistakes that needed to be edited. Never draw anything with ink while riding a train, oops!
Anyway, there is just one way to “start” and one way to “finish”. Enjoy!
For this maze, I started by drawing a squiggly line and continued on. It mostly made up the center area of the maze. This makes the middle of the maze both more interesting and possibly trickier to get through. Otherwise its a relatively easy maze. Try not to get stuck.
Anyway, there is just one way to “start” and one way to “finish”. Enjoy!
When drawing this maze, I started to think that it has been a while since the last time I did a maze with multiple “starts”. I really like making extra “starts” and “finishes” because that kind of thing makes mazes just a tiny bit more challenging. Not to mention that its more interesting to look at.
Anyway, there are two ways to “start” and one way to finish. Enjoy!
For this maze, I started by drawing odd shapes for the “starts” and the “finish” and then working from there.
Those particular shapes reminded me of ice somehow and cold. That kind of thing also reminds me of the movie, Frozen. Who else loved that movie?
Anyway, there is two ways to “start” and one way to “finish”. Enjoy!

As a special bonus for the holiday, I made another fun download.
I made five different mazes that are perfect for quick last minute valentine’s day cards.
Just print them out on cardstock, or print on paper and glue to thin cardboard or construction paper. You can also attach them to candy for a sweeter touch or use them as a gift tag for a larger gift.
Enjoy!
Give it a try:
For this maze, I went with a different style. I was aiming for something more traditionally maze-like and geometric. I’m not sure if I like it or not, but I’m sure that if I try this again I will definitely use a ruler or something.
Anyway, there is just one way to “start” and one way to “finish”. Enjoy!
Another heart maze, this time in the traditional heart shape. I started this one by drawing three different hearts, one inside another and another. The largest is the whole maze and the smallest became the “finish”. The last one kind of got lost in the maze, but if you look closely you may be able to see it.
Anyway, there is just one way to “start” and one way to “finish”. Enjoy!
Since Valentine’s day is in a few more weeks, it’s time for a few heart mazes. This one is a little different because of the shape. It reminded me of the shape of an actual human heart. Anatomy can be beautiful too, right?
Anyway, there is just one way to “start” and one way to “finish”. Enjoy!
For this maze, the “start” kind of looks like a seed or bean. As the path goes on it looks like it’s “sprouting” into some kind of plant, hence the name. It also explains why I bought some bean sprouts at the store the other day. Yes, food has been on my mind lately.
Anyway, there’s just one way to “start” and one way to “finish”. Enjoy!
With this maze, I started drawing the “starts” and the “finishes” at the same time and then joined them together along the way. The “starts” could have just as easily have been the “finishes” and vice versa.
Anyway, there are two ways to “start” and two ways to “finish”? Enjoy!
For this maze, I started by the drawing the “start” and “finish” right next to each other. I then made the paths wrap around, and around, etc.
They kind of the remind me of ying and yang, so that’s why it’s called balance. May it help you find your balance in this new year.
Anyway, there is just one way to “start” and one way to “finish”. Enjoy!
