10 Lockdown Activities To Inspire Creativity

[This Article Is A Paid For Post]

It is safe to say that the past 12 months I have been seriously up and down with my creative mood. It has been so hard to find my mojo so we thought we would share 10 things you can do at home to inspire creativity.

ACTIVITIES TO INSPIRE CREATIVITY

DANCE IT OUT

Put on your favourite playlist OR create your own, and have a dance. Nothing too Strictly, just enjoy yourself and shake it off!

GET ACTIVE

Sign up for a fun dance class online (that ties in nicely with the first idea) or go for a walk with a friend!

COLOURING

Now I know what you’re thinking… “colouring, really?!”.. but YES. They sell adult colouring books for a reason and personally I bloody love them. Just let your mind wander.

UPCYCLE A PIECE OF FURNITURE

One I am yet to attempt myself but I have seen some amazing creations throughout the past year. It is crazy what a lick of paint and a glue gun can do!

PRACTICE YOUR PHOTOGRAPHY

I hate being in one of those moods where I KNOW I need to get some photos taken but seriously lack inspiration, and i’ve found the best way to get over it? Is to actually get snapping! Once i’ve taken the first two or three images, that’s it! I am on a roll.

MEDITATE

Take five minutes at the beginning of the day, to practice some mindfulness. It will start your day off perfectly. This is something I definitely need to do more often.

DIGITAL ART

As part of TMC we do a lot of creative things online, whether it is designing story templates or coming up with fun images for our main feed, so it is really important that we are feeling creative! We love the creative side of our job but there are definitely times when we lack inspiration. To make your job easier, we highly recommend this font bundles free fonts, we always find fab fonts hard to come by!

TRY OUT A NEW RECIPE

I am a bugger for saying that I am going to make something new for a meal, and then never seem to get round to it! I absolutely love trying new foods and it is really important that the kids are always tasting new & exciting foods too.

START A JOURNAL

I started a bullet journal at the beginning of this year to track my reading & keep organised with TMC and it is the best thing i’ve done! I absolutely love setting out my monthly spreads and any excuse to buy cute washi tape…..

READ A BOOK

Nothing inspires me like reading a book, especially a favourite! I love to re-read a book when I am feeling unmotivated and uninspired!

We hope these ideas helped and that you find a way to inspire creativity! What do you do to feel creative?
