Wednesday Coloring Pages
Free Wednesday Coloring Pages: 17 printable PDF designs featuring Wednesday Addams, her animated hand Thing, roommate Enid Sinclair, and a couple of crossover and live-action reference pages. Each page can be downloaded as a PDF to print or colored online in the browser, with no account required.
Wednesday is a Netflix television series, not a film, that premiered on November 23, 2022, created by Alfred Gough and Miles Millar and directed in its first season by Tim Burton. The character herself traces back much further, first appearing in a 1938 New Yorker cartoon by Charles Addams, and this Netflix adaptation stars Jenna Ortega in the title role alongside Emma Myers as Wednesday’s werewolf roommate, Enid Sinclair.
The 17 pages in this set are split into solo Wednesday portraits, Wednesday with Thing, Wednesday with friends and cast members, and a smaller group of crossover and live-action reference pages, giving fans a range of moments from the series.
What Is Inside This Collection
The 17 pages fall into four groups by who appears alongside Wednesday rather than by a single repeated scene.
Solo Wednesday Portraits
The largest group keeps the focus on Wednesday alone, across a range of simple and more detailed styles, including a chibi version. These suit her signature Black braided pigtails and dark, simple clothing, kept consistent in a muted palette across every page.
Wednesday and Thing
A second group pairs Wednesday with Thing, the disembodied hand character played on screen using practical effects by actor Victor Dorobantu in a blue suit rather than computer animation. These suit a pale, natural skin tone for Thing with visible stitching detail along the wrist.
Wednesday with Friends and Cast
A smaller group brings in other characters, including Enid Sinclair and a page referencing the viral dance scene set to the song Goo Goo Muck by The Cramps, one of the show’s most widely shared moments online. These suit Enid’s colorful hair and clothing as a deliberate contrast to Wednesday’s monochrome look.
Crossover and Live-Action Reference Pages
The remaining pages step outside the show itself, including a crossover pairing with Spider-Man and a page referencing actress Jenna Ortega’s live-action portrayal of the character. These are addressed further in the FAQ, since neither reflects an official, licensed connection.
What Wednesday Coloring Pages Do
Fine motor development through sharp, deliberate lines. The American Academy of Pediatrics identifies fine motor skill development as a core benefit of structured coloring for children ages 2 through 7, and Wednesday’s braided hair and structured clothing give that practice a clean, angular shape to work through, distinct from the softer curves most character pages use.
A real viral moment behind one of the pages. The dance scene referenced in this collection, set to the 1981 song Goo Goo Muck by The Cramps, became one of the most widely shared and imitated moments from the series after it aired, giving that particular page a genuine, documented cultural moment to connect to rather than an invented scene.
Calm, repetitive shading through Thing’s stitched detail. A 2005 study in the Art Therapy Journal documented measurable reductions in anxiety following structured coloring sessions, and the fine stitching along Thing’s wrist calls for the same slow, deliberate line work the study associated with that calming effect, more so than a plain, unmarked hand shape would.
A character built around visual restraint. Because Wednesday’s look relies on a small, consistent color palette rather than bright or varied colors, this collection gives colorists practice with a more disciplined approach, choosing a few deliberate tones and applying them precisely rather than filling a page with many different colors.
How to Color These Pages Well
- Hair: Use a deep, flat Black for Wednesday’s braids, avoiding any highlight color to keep the look consistent with her simple, unadorned style.
- Clothing: Keep outfits in Black, dark Gray, or Navy, since Wednesday’s wardrobe is deliberately muted rather than colorful.
- Skin tone: Use a pale, neutral tone and avoid adding rosy cheeks or bright highlights, since her expression is meant to read as flat and unimpressed rather than warm.
- Thing: Color the hand a natural pale tone with visible Black or Dark Brown stitching detail at the wrist, keeping the rest of the hand simple.
- Enid Sinclair: Use bright, varied colors for Enid’s hair and clothing, since the contrast with Wednesday’s muted palette is part of what makes their pages together work visually.
- Backgrounds: Keep backgrounds simple and dark-toned, using Charcoal or deep Purple, so Wednesday’s pale skin and dark hair remain the clear focal point.
5 Creative Craft Ideas With Wednesday Coloring Pages
1. Dance Scene Flipbook
Color a few of the Wednesday portrait pages in slightly different poses, staple the pages together along one edge, and flip through quickly to create a simple stop-motion-style flipbook referencing the show’s famous dance scene.
2. Mystery Case File Card
Color a Wednesday page and glue it to the top of an index card, then write a short, pretend mystery case note underneath in a deadpan, detective-style voice.
3. Thing Puppet
Color one of the Thing pages, cut around the hand shape, and attach it to a glove or a craft stick to make a simple puppet that can wiggle its fingers.
4. Gothic Portrait Frame
Mount a colored Wednesday portrait inside a black paper frame with a scalloped or pointed edge cut by hand, for a simple gothic-style display piece.
5. Character Trading Cards
Trim a few of the solo character portraits into card-sized pieces and add a hand-drawn border, writing each character’s name on the back. Collect the finished cards into a small deck.
