My hobby? Explore new hobbies.
In 2023, I started exploring hobbies;
not to fill time, but to fill myself.
Every class, every project, every little craft became a piece of me.
When curiosity leads,
creativity follows.
Clay Potting
I left this to be baked and never went back for it.
Air-Dried Clay Figures
I’ve made so many of these; now I’m not sure what to do with them all!
Planting
I’m not great at planting; actually, I forgot this plant in the Uber on the way home.
Clothes Upcycling
I’d rather donate the clothes than modify them, to be honest.
Polymer Clay Earrings
You’d think playing with clay would be easy, but making these earrings proved me totally wrong.
Stained Glass
You have to cut glass, weld, and design patterns; it felt like being an engineer... and yes, you can cut yourself!
Handmade Candle Sachets
I had no idea what candle sachets were, but apparently, they’re for making your drawers smell amazing!
Epoxy Resin Tray
The mess I made while creating this is definitely reflected in the result.
Clothing Painting
My mom saw these pants and never gave them back.
Jewelry Making
Making friendship bracelets should count as cardio. I’d do it all day without complaining.
Fanzines
I had never heard of a fanzine until that day but It’s like a DIY magazine full of random creativity. Like, anything can be a fanzine!
Resin Powder Figures
It’s like cement and epoxy resin had a baby. No 24-hour wait or UV lamp needed. Perfect for the impatient!
Cake Decorating
Not to brag, but I'm pretty proud of my Halloween cake decorating skills.
Tote bag painting
My go-to bag for carrying all the hair products I need for a salon day.
Lettering
I made this last-minute sign for my best friend's proposal. Not surprised, she said yes!
Handmade soaps
I accidentally added too much oil to the soaps and now they're more air fresheners than anything else!
