Or let yourself be inspired by children - build a sandcastle at the beach or dig a hole or collect shells or rocks and make a design, collect a few sticks and leaves and make a fairy house in your garden, pick a perfect flower to give someone, doodle a daisy, buy a children’s set of watercolors, mess around with colors, and pin it to your fridge, paint your fingernails (and/or toes) different colors- or have fun with a new shade, or one of my favorites, draw designs on paint pens on beach stones :)

Lovely! I especially like the addition of "sew something" to your list, although every suggestion makes good sense to me! Nice sign-off for your hiatus, which I hope includes some very good play.

Thanks :) I've always enjoyed simple sewing projects. One day I'd like to take a class to learn how to do more. Know any good teachers?
