Pick up your colourful sketch pens and paint brush and start practicing mandala art. This art is one of the easiest to begin with. It helps improve your mood and promotes satisfaction

Colourful embroidery

Take different coloured yarns, a needle and a hoop and start designing beautiful motifs on a cloth. This activity is not just satisfying but it also helps spend time creatively

Doodle art
