Put down your smart phone, turn off the TV and get crafty with your imagination and a pair of scissors. Channeling your inner artist is an effective way to unwind after a long work week. It’s also a great way to make use of a few things you have hanging around the house adding clutter.

Put your old sweaters to good use and DIY a pom-pom hat for the chilly temps ahead. Make a stylish woven basket with spare paper. Or use random ingredients in your kitchen to craft the most scrumptious batch of s’mores you’ve ever had.
