How to move from consumption toward creation? Make things! Start small, with simple projects. Making any things is very empowering and tends to propel us forward on the journey.
Make things and share them with people in March! Let's get the conversation flowing more around what we make rather than what we consume.
Simple projects to start with:
- knit or crochet a washcloth
- mending your clothes (learn the beautiful arts of darning and visible mending)
- carve linoleum blocks and make simple prints
- melt down old wax into new candles
- cooking or baking
- a website on smol.pub!
Things I've been making lately:
- a sock
- leftover candles
- DIY essential oil diffuser
- calligraphy
- linocuts
- bread
- date paste
- repurposed kindle console for calendar & weather & notes to self & todos
(tried & gave up after realizing how much the server would cost to keep running)
& doodles!
