Drawing is something that absolutely everyone can do, there are many limitations you feel you may come across, but we can assure you there is a way for you to enjoy drawing, lose yourself in it, get creative, and want to come back too. Here’s the thing though, drawing may come along with an art block. Sometimes you may not know what to draw and it just gets the better of you because you think if you;re going to be spending your time drawing it has to be worthwhile with a masterpiece at the end of the time you;ve dedicated to doing it. Drawing can be fun, and just to put some time away, to practise new things, and to simply enjoy in a time where you may not get to do your usual activities. You may be used to drawing, just may have trouble focusing for lo9ng periods of time, I just need to come away from that one piece you;ve been working on for weeks and look at something new. Either way we hope we can help you, we’ve got some interesting ideas.  Starting off with something in...

We’re all adults now and with being adults comes loads of things that just aren’t that fun but we have to do them anyway. Working full time, paying all our bills, looking after our health by not eating four chocolate bars in a row. All boring, but they have to be done. Now not everything has to be so adult though, there are times where we can enjoy ourselves and let go a bit. Now trying to do that at home may not be as easy. You may be able to just sit on your phone, watch TV or read a book wehn at home but we want more for you. There are so many activities we did as kids that we don't actually have to stop doing now. So if you need some fun childish things to do whilst cooped up at home then here’s a few options for you.  Starting off with something that can even be quite relaxing if done right. Colouring. As kids we had to learn how to colour inside the lines and make sure to get the rainbow colors right. Colouring doesn’t need to be so restrictive anymore. There are 1000s...

Being indoors can get pretty boring, sometimes it’s hard to keep a good routine going and scrolling your phone for hours on end can get pretty tiring. You may find yourself with not so much to do, or so much to do you don’t know what to tackle first. We’ve decided to put together some of the best things to do whilst at home with no idea of what to do. We've got you covered for being creative, learning new things, getting some organising done and way more. We hope we can keep you busy!  Now is a better time than ever to learn something new. There are so many apps and websites that can help you learn a new language. Duolingo is one of the better known apps, and if you put in an hour or so everyday you’ll be able to have some quick conversations in no time. Find a friend or family member that wants to learn a new language too, and then you can Skype and help each other learn too. One app that’s really popular right now is Tik Tok and one of the best parts are all the dance tr...

Going on dates in London can get pretty boring pretty quick if your idea of a date is dinner or drinks. There’s only so much you can learn about someone by the personality they set up for the first date you go on. So, it’s time to break out of that rut you know, the museums and brunch can be great too but it’s still not what we’re aiming for. You may have a great time, and even better learn enough about your date on whether you want a second date or not. Get out of your comfort zone, get competitive, and creative with these three different date ideas! Firstly, here is a great opportunity to see what your dates culinary skills are like. Are you the type that can barely boil pasta, or are you the next contestant for the Great British Bake Off? Either way you can have a great time between going through the class, enjoying the process. You may just see if they’re the type to get just a bit frustrated when you make a mess of the counter as well. Seen as dating is a way to see if you l...

London is full of so many opportunities, and chances to do whatever you want, however with this big concrete jungle of buildings creativity can get lost on us sometimes. Those daily commutes start to take a toll and you actually get excited when the ad changes at the station so you have something new to look at. Well there’s a few spots around London where you can escape all of that and really get your hands dirty yourself. Have a creative outburst at any of these spots and we’re sure you’ll jump into a new craft, or take the time to just enjoy the ones you know already. First off we have an absolute classic, like actually a classic that you know when Christmas comes around each year your nan will be right on the christmas jumpers you can itch all throughout the day wearing. Well at Knit With Attitude you can knit her a jumper right back. As we know, knitting is cool now, right? The little but mighty store in Stoke Newington has all you need to really get stuck in. You can go to t...
