1. Embroidery

I've only recently begun to pick this up, but I'm already in love with it. Embroidery is basically sewing, with needle and thread, and you stitch little designs onto a piece of fabric. The designs don't have to be very elaborate (take the small cactus and Tardis as examples). There are also quite a few kits, that can be found online, that are good places to start. For instance, here are some kits that were recommended to me by a fellow Odyssey writer:

2. Painting

3. Watercolor

Watercolor painting was my favorite thing to do my senior year. It's easy, the texture and colors are fun to experiment with, and the final product is (usually) worth the trouble. If you're looking for a decent watercolor set, I would recommend the one that my art teacher told us to get: Prang Watercolor Set. Don't forget to only do watercolor on paper made for it, otherwise regular paper won't cooperate with the moisture.

4. Drawing

Easy, Easy, easy. Even if you think you can't draw, there's bound to be a technique out there for you to try. For example, try drawing something simple without lifting your pen/pencil off the paper. It makes for a unique piece of art at the end, and it's pretty fun to do! There's also a type of scratch-art that you can do like in the picture above; just print the picture you want to scratch, trace it with a pencil onto the scratch-off paper, and scratch off to get the image you want!

5. Wood Burning

Wood burning is a little more complicated than the rest of the items on this list in terms of finding the right materials and supplies. To pick up this hobby, you would need spare or scrap wood and a wood burning tool. When I searched for a kit on Google, I found one at Walmart for only $12 that has all the different tool tips and everything you should need supply-wise.

Here's a link for it online: Wood Burning Kit Walmart

6. Collages

7. Writing

8. Adult Coloring Books

You can find coloring books anywhere; what's getting pretty popular, however, are detailed coloring books made for adults. If you stop by Barnes N Noble, for instance, they always have at least one detailed coloring book centered around a specific fandom. I've also found several that are themed around parts of nature or something like fairy tales.

9. Knitting

This one sounds uninteresting at first, and like something only older women tend to do, but it's actually pretty easy and fun! I tried knitting when I was about twelve, when my mom decided to try it as well, and I got about halfway done with a scarf. The best part about knitting is the repetition, and it's something you can do while watching a movie or a TV show!

10. Puzzles

Puzzles have never really been extremely entertaining for me, but I thought I would add it to the list because of how much some people like them. You can find many different kinds of puzzles in almost any store, in whatever image you want. If you're really ambitious, you can even make a puzzle of your own picture if you send it in and order it.
