Last updated: June 4, 2024 by the Homemade Gifts Coloring Team
Cats are my all-time favorite animals. Their peaceful nature, their calming purrs, their soft fur - I adore it all. But despite having a wonderful cat of my own at home, there is always space in my life for even more cats. And yes, that includes fun kitten coloring pages.
You can color these free, printable kitten coloring pages with your friends, your kids, or anyone else you want to share them with. We have a wide variety so you can find the exact cat you want. Maybe a few of our coloring pages even look like your special kitty at home.

Crafty Ideas for Your Free Kitten Coloring Pages

If you have a rainy afternoon or an event to plan, check out these crafty ideas for your free, printable kitten coloring pages that can turn this fun activity into something you get to treasure for years to come.
Make a Custom Journal
Do you love journaling or want to start? You can customize your journal with your own beautiful coloring masterpiece. We have a great tutorial about how to make your own journal cover. However, it talks about making a felt cover. To use your kitten coloring page as the cover instead, you can follow most of the same instructions, but replace the felt with your coloring sheet.
Put simply, you’ll want to print your free kitten coloring page in such a way that it can wrap around your journal. Next, you’ll need to glue it down firmly. Finally, you may want to seal your coloring page with something like Mod Podge so that it doesn’t get damaged as easily.
If this isn’t quite what you’re looking for, you can also use your printable kitten coloring pages inside of the journal instead. The technique is much the same. Simply find a journal page you want to decorate with your coloring sheet, then glue in your masterpiece. You can also cut out specific parts of your artwork and glue or tape those in separately, almost like stickers. Create a whole kitten collage to keep as a memento in your journal.
Decorate a Doorplate
This is a great one for a kid’s bedroom. First, you will need to go to a local craft store and buy the letters for their name. These letters are often made of wood. Sometimes, you can find entire names, but if you can’t, you will need to arrange the letters and attach them to something you can hang.
Now, it’s time to customize. Glue your colored in kitten coloring pages to the letters. Cut off the excess bits of paper. You will produce a unique and bright nameplate, with all the letters in the person’s name containing their own artwork. How fun is that?
Personalize a Gift
You can absolutely use your printable kitten coloring pages to personalize a gift. There are many ways to do this. You might use your kitten coloring pages as wrapping paper if you print it out large enough. You can even fold it into origami to add a flourish to a gift box. Make sure before you start folding that your printable kitten coloring page is the right size and shape for the origami. For example, some origami needs to be square, while you can fold other shapes out of things like dollar bills.
You can also use the kitten coloring page as a card for a birthday, holiday, or special event. The instructions for this would be similar to the instructions on any of our free printable birthday cards. Make sure the coloring page is the right size. You might want to print it on one quadrant of a page so that when you fold your card, the kitten coloring page can be the cover of the card. Then simply color in your card and personalize it with a message for your loved one.
Make Your Own Keychains
This is a really fun one that looks impressive but is actually pretty simple. You will need a “shrinky dinks” kit, however.
First, you can print out and color in your favorite kitten coloring page. Then you need to scan the image so you can place it back on your computer. This is because you’ll have to print it out again, this time at a smaller size and on the shrinky dinks material. Cut around the edges, punch a hole in the top, and follow the shrinky dinks instructions for putting it in the oven.
Afterward, you should seal your image in some way. Once it’s ready, you can add the chain. And there you have it. A keychain you made on your own.
Incorporate It Into Other Art Mediums
Want some art with your art? You can use your kitten coloring page as the starting point to make other artsy projects.
For example, you could cut out part of your image and incorporate it into a sewing project. You could also make a collage. This is especially fun if there are a few images you really like among our free kitten coloring page collection. You could even turn this into a group activity. If you hosted a birthday party, for example, you could let all the children color their favorite images, then combine all the coloring sheets at the end to make one big piece of artwork that everyone contributed to.
Let your imagination run wild with these coloring sheets. If you like to paint, you can add them to your canvas. You can even make a 3D diorama by cutting out various kittens and items and piecing them back together. These free kitten coloring pages are really just the start of your fun artsy journey, so let your creativity go into overdrive.
