If you’re anything like me, the sun hates you. And if I want to go outside I need to pack on level SPF 300, so I’m always looking for fun new things to do inside. Sure, some of these activities may be more suited for your grandma, but sometimes you don’t want to go outside so here are some new hobbies you can try out this summer!

1. Knitting

I’ve always wanted to learn how to knit but using two needles is a little too complicated for me. Maybe this summer!

2. Crocheting

Crocheting is similar to knitting except you only use one hook, which sounds even more difficult??

3. Cross stitching

Cross stitching is my FAVORITE indoor activity probably. I love getting a new template and getting all the new thread and starting on something new. I’ve made so many amazing pieces and it’s a great stress reliever during the school year when I’m procrastinating things.

4. Embroidery

You can use thread or yarn and literally create any design you want. And if you’re feeling really creative you can add beads or pearls or sequins.

5. Scrapbooking

Scrapbooking might be something fun to do at the end of the summer and you can organize your photos you’ve taken throughout the past couple months.

6. Painting

Painting is something that can be fun inside or outside. Take in your surroundings or just paint what you love!

7. Quilting

Something I’ve always wanted to do is make a huge t shirt quilt with all my old high school tees, band tees, and college tees and I think I might finally start on in the next couple months!

Overall, this summer is going to be amazing and these are just some of the super cool art projects you can test out while you're sitting inside with your aloe and sunburn!
