My hobby- self care

During Prime Day, I finally scored something I’ve been eyeing for a long time! :purple_heart::sparkles:

I know it’s not a typical motherhood purchase, but after being a stay at home mom for the last couple of years, taking care of my babies 24/7, I’ve realized how important it is to have something that’s just for me.

Crafting has become more than just a hobby it gives me a creative outlet, helps my mental health, keeps my brain busy, and reminds me that I’m still me outside of being “Mom.” :two_hearts:

Sometimes self-care isn’t a spa day… sometimes it’s investing in something that brings you joy and helps you reconnect with yourself​:heart_hands:

Any other crafty mamas out there? I’d love to know what you enjoy making! :artist_palette::purple_heart:

Good for you girl!!! I love crafting, but haven’t started back up yet. My favorites are cross stitching and diamond painting. I just know I’ll be doing some more crafts in the near future to set up a homeschooling curriculum for my daughter. I can’t wait!
