The longer we spend inside, the more our favorite Netflix shows and forced family bonding feel, well, a bit played out. That’s why I’ve been on the hunt for unique hobbies to mix things up.

I don’t know about you but, I always fall victim to spending pointless time on my phone to the point where my “screen time” is at an all time high and the more time I spend on my phone, the worse I feel. 

One thing my phone has taught me, though, is to use the resources I have online to learn a new skill or watch others create. Unlike the times before us…

We can use Youtube tutorials, articles, or even talk to friends as a way to discover new hobbies together. Below are some outside-the-box, unique hobbies that are fun to learn and awesome to master now that we have some time on our hands!

Personalize a Product

This unique hobby is where the internet is truly an asset. If you’re someone who already makes art and isn’t quite sure what to do with it, what’s better than creating a personalized product that you and your friends can own? 

Uploading designs to Redbubble is one way to get your designs on stickers, mugs, and even clothes.

For an even more unique idea, there are websites where you can upload your designs or photos to make a custom board game or playing cards.

Even if you’re not an ~artist,~ fear not! Making a board game from household supplies like extra school markers and cut out pieces of paper can be a great and low-key activity to try out with family and friends over video chat.
