Let’s be honest – life is BUSY. Whether it’s work, looking after others, or that never-ending pile of laundry staring you down like it’s got beef… sometimes it feels like there’s just no time to do anything for yourself.
But here’s the truth no one tells you enough:
🧠 When you give your hands something creative to do, your mind finally gets a moment to rest.
I didn’t always know this. In fact, there was a time when I didn’t craft at all. I was working full-time, running around juggling everything, and the idea of “me time” felt like a luxury I didn’t have.
It was actually my Mom-in-Law who pushed me to make my own paints when I couldn’t find the right ones. I kept brushing her off (sorry Mum 😅), but eventually gave it a go – and it changed everything.
Now, every time I sit down with a wood kit or mix paints in my kitchen, I’m reminded that crafting isn’t “just a hobby.” It’s a tool. A break. A lifeline. A way to reconnect with yourself – even for just half an hour.
💗 So if this week’s already running away with you…
I want to gently encourage you to:
-
Pour a cuppa ☕
-
Grab your kit (or one of our free printables if you’re waiting on Happy Mail!)
-
And just start.
You don’t need to be in the mood.
You don’t need to be creative.
Your hands will do the rest… and your mind will thank you later.
Crafting gives you permission to pause, and when you do, magic happens.
💬 Let’s Chat!
I’d love to know:
How does crafting make you feel?
We’ve just popped a post up on our Facebook page right here so you can come and leave a little comment.
Even if you haven’t had time to pick up your kit this week, that’s okay — just come and say hi! 💬
Much Love
