Learn how to do one of the things you don't know how to.0

You won't be good at anything creative without practice. That's not a good reason not to do it. If you enjoy it, keep at it. On the other hand, if nothing creative calls to you, then why bother? Maybe you need a different kind of hobby.0

Gardening is creative, therapeutic, pretty, tasty, fun, outside, and physical. Gardening is my my favorite hobbies. Can be vegetables, herbs, flowers or a beautiful mix of all three. You can do in in one pot, a small yard space, or even a community garden and help others.0

thanks, your message was encouraging.
i don't know what i enjoy though.
i would like painting if i didn't get disappointed and discouraged every time i do it.
some people are so naturally artistic.
i would love to be that.
i really crave creativity, and i'm a very creative thinker.
i just seem to suck at actually creating.0 -

i absolutely love the idea of gardening.
i hope to learn how to get started this summer.
but i can't do that when the kids are in bed.
i wanted something for a night or 2 a week at the end of the day.
thanks though.0 -
Go to the Goodwill and pick up an old table, bookcase or simple padded chair and refinish/recover it; design, plant and tend a small herb garden with a wide variety of herbs--extend it to veggies too; if you sew, get some fabric and make a querky chef's apron (think french maid or aloha wear); get a book on how to do calligraphy and make some signs or sketchbook with your favorite motivational quotes; get some beads and charms and make jewelry.0

oh, i think refinishing furniture sounds fun!
i have thought about it many times over the years.
but i don't really have a place here where i could do something like that.
when we get our garage/workshop, that will definitely be a project i'll take on.
have you ever done that?0 -
I just started crocheting again after several years...like I just started 2 nights ago. It's so easy. You could learn how!!!
ETA I've made candles in the past. I really enjoyed that. I bought all of the supplies from a website called NaturesGardenCandles.com0 -
