As kids, we enjoyed all sorts of fun hobbies. Somehow, back in the day, no matter how much homework we got, we still managed to do all this other cool stuff. But even if you are very busy as an adult, you should definitely find some new hobbies to try and attempt fitting them into your schedule. These hobbies don’t even have to be something complicated or time-consuming. There are tons of easy hobbies to pick up out there, and so everyone can find something to their taste.
It's fun and easy to make art out of paint chips or swatches! For a recent Home Show, I made a paint mannequin from a dress form and several paint decks!

Avocado is one of my most favorite dye sources. We eat a lot of avocados at home and therefore have quite a substantial amounts of avocado skins and stones left. They would end up as a kitchen waste otherwise and I love the fact that I can use them in a creative way instead of throwing them into a bin. Avocados make a
This sterling silver pendant is handmade and consists of a deer antler sickle and a branch of mistletoe. This jewelry combines nature, floral elements with witch and pagan features as most of my other pieces do. Druidess necklace is inspired by the sacred druid ceremony which happened during the the winter solstice. The chief would cut the mistletoe from the Oak with a sickle and divide the branches and distributed them to the people, who hung them over doorways as protection against thunder, lightning and other evils. Mistletoe is a plant that grows on various trees, it is held in great veneration when found on Oak trees. It comes from the Old English misteltãn and means "All Heal". The Druids believed mistletoe to be an indicator of great sacredness, possessed healing powers and bestowed fertility. Although not a lot of information about them has survived, the Druids were the men and women sages, magicians and wise priests of the Celts. Caesar wrote, about the Druids, that they "know much about the stars and celestial motions, and about the size of the earth and universe, and about the essential nature of things, and about the powers and authority of the immortal gods; and these things they teach to their pupils." Mistletoe was sacred according to Norse mythology too. According to the story, Baldur, son of Frigg, the Goddess of Love and Beauty had a dream in which he dies. Frigg went to all the elements, air, fire, water and earth as well as all the animals and plants on earth and asked them to spare her son. But Loki, God of Evil, found one plant that Frigga had overlooked - Mistletoe. Mistletoe grows neither on the ground nor under the ground - rather, it’s an aerial plant that has no roots of its own and attaches itself to the tree it grows on. Loki made a poisoned arrow tip with the Mistletoe and tricked Baldur's blind brother, Hoder, into shooting the arrow and killing Baldur. The whole world was plunged into mourning. The white berries of the mistletoe represent Frigg’s tears. When Baldur is resurrected, the plant comes to represent everlasting life, and it is a symbol of love to kiss beneath the mistletoe. Jewelry Care and Points to Consider -Remove your jewelry while swimming, salty water or the chemicals on a pool would damage them. -Remove your rings while you are washing dishes or cleaning something using cleansers other than soap. -Keep your jewelry in a zip bag, (preferably wrapped in a cloth or a paper napkin within a zip bag) while you are not wearing them. To place a jewelry in open air or in a drawer without covering it will accelerate the darkening. -Silver and brass do gain patina with time. Sweat, creams etc. accelerate it. The lasting of the polish on the jewelry piece depends on your skin type and whether or not you pay attention to aforementioned tips. With time your jewelry will gain a nice patina, but paying attention to these tips will slow the process and make the patina nicer. -Some of my jewelry contain pointy parts, not all jewelry are for daily wear, some of them are fine art pieces. Please be careful when wearing this kind of jewelry while taking care of children or pets.
When in doubt, use the rule of three.

Tashkent-based artist Eldar Zakirov presents a series of digitally painted cats, proudly posing in different royal attires for the Hermitage Magazine. The cats look so at home in their outfits and each piece is so realistic that one might even be tricked into thinking these are actual oil paintings! Every singly detail, starting with the fabrics of the outfits and ending with the background of the paintings is very carefully chosen to represent the era appropriately.
DIY with Shabulous! My Yard Ghosts! I know that I've said it before and I will say it again- HALLOWEEN IS MY FAVORITE! Every year we throw a huge party complete with costume contests, adult games, loud music, and devilish foods and potions! Decorating starts September 1st! My mantle is my showcase and each year I try to come up with a different set-up (I will share that with you soon). My yard however is sure to house a very special lawn ornament that I ALWAYS make myself. Store-bought...shhhhmore-bought! Not me! I always try DIY! So last year it was this scary guy. I named him Carl. The adults loved him and the children feared him! But he was a nice guy, always smiling over your shoulder. This year, I've tried two different "yard ghosts". The first one was inspired by some of the charming little Casper-esque yard ghost decorations in magazines and catalogues. I took cues from them all to create the perfect giant yard ghost that is as equally friendly as it is sinister (photos and tutorial are below). The other type of yard ghost was a much more involved project. It took me a few days to complete (many breaks and tons of frustration). I saw a post on Pinterest labeled "Chicken Wire Yard Ghost". That stopped me dead in my tracks and I thought I ABSOLUTELY MUST HAVE THAT! I ran a google search for chicken wire ghosts and these were the results I came up with. INSPIRATION There weren't that many actually. That is when I decided that I was going to top them all! I bought my 3ftx18ft of chicken wire, grabbed my lady dress form and plugged away. The tutorials that I found mentioned that it was easy.....they are so wrong. It was quite difficult, painful, and tricky. However, I did stop at nothing to make it as life-like as possible. Call me an over-achiever. I even gave it long flowing locks of hair and a dress train to "swish" up off the ground! All in all, I had a wonderful time building this project. I will share with you my photos below as well as instructions for yard ghost #1. I have named him Henry. MY WANDERING WOMAN HENRY! Project difficulty: low to med Time: 45 min Cost: approximately $42 You will need: -1 Happy helper (it's a two man job) -Step ladder -1 132" Round White Tablecloth- Find it here -1 8ft tall rebar rod or wooden dowel (you may have to use a hack saw to cut down to size)- Find it here -1 7-12" Foam ball- You can either use a floral ball which is here but smaller, or the cheaper version which I used- a kid's foam kickball- Find it here -1-2 white kitchen bags and twist tie -med-heavy gage wire -8 yard stakes -8 Alligator clips- Find it here -1 Pair $1 store bought black socks -Straight pins or hot glue (if you don't mind ruining it as a table cloth) -Hammer -Scissors -Kitchen steak knife (serrated) -Spotlight stake (optional)- Find it here Steps: 1. Decide the height at which you want your ghost to hover above the ground. We did 7ft above ground with 1ft in the ground. Cut pole to size. 2. With your serrated knife, gently push into center part of bottom side of foam ball. twist slightly to make a snug hole. Try to reach the center to ensure stability atop the pole. 3. On a step ladder, use hammer to tap rod down into ground. If using a wooden dowel you may need to create hole prior to placement. 4. Place foam ball atop pole. Make sure it is a snug fit. 5. Take two white bags and double them up. Place over top of ball and twist tie below. This will keep the elements and rain away from the ball so that it does not deteriorate. 6. Find equidistant points along the outside perimeter of the table cloth. Use your alligator clips at these points. 7. Using step ladder, toss table cloth over the top of the ball. 8. Use the wire to thread through the ends or holes of the alligator clips. Twist wire ends. Then pull to desired length outward from post. 9. Use hammer to install yard stakes. Wrap wire ends around these. Do this going from point to corresponding point across- to ensure equal placement. I chose to have one side of the cloth a little bit higher than the other just to give it some depth and whimsy. 10. Take your socks and separate pair. With scissors cut 5 inch long narrow tear drop shape (will make two because of tube-shaped sock). Take the other sock and cut 1 long narrow tear drop shape approximately 7" long or length of the sock. The longer mouth the creepier. 11. Use your straight pins or hot glue to affix the eyes and mouth. I used the pins so that I can use the table cloth in the future. Since it is white, I can just throw it in the wash with added bleach. Also, the great thing with working with socks is that the shape will not be perfect. In fact, the edges may be slightly frayed and you can actually pull on the fabric because of the elasticity. You can shape it into as eerie a mouth as you want! 12. Place your spotlight stake underneath center and route to power. 13. Stand back and admire your larger than life awesome yard ghost!
