- crocheting
- painting(nails or canvas with acrylic)

- quilting (big fan of improv quilting)
- drawing
- pottery/clay work
- bookbinding/scrapbooking/collaging

-baking & cake decorating is probably my main one(I also do it to an extent for work too)
-sewing; all my clothes are either made, upcycled, or tailored by me
-painting though I’m not the best at it but it’s relaxing
-needlefelting it’s really accessible and relaxing. I take it with me to cafes and such for something to do with my hands and it’s a good conversation starter. I like to give random people free keychains and trinkets I make
-music; I love to write songs and I play guitar and banjo, also taking voice lessons at the moment
-”photography” I like to take Polaroids of my friends and things and decorate them with stickers and doodles
-vintage doll and toy collecting I have too many things
-cosmetics; love makeup too much and doing people’s hair
-fashion; between making stuff, studying old runway shows, and learning whatever history I can

i use apps (the Opal app) to help cut down screen time, which somewhat works, but I find that crafting helps me the most. I learned to crochet in the past year and it's amazing to do in front of the TV, where normally I'd sit and move my eyes between 2 different screens. I also take it on planes, trains, etc., anywhere where I could scroll endlessly while waiting. Also is nice to craft before bed while perhaps listening to music or a podcast. The world is your oyster!
Other crafts you can do: knitting, embroidery, needlepoint, drawing, painting, handbuilding
