January is International Creativity Month.
Being creative can make us fell happy, fulfilled and improve our mental health.
Creating things is better than buying them, as when we have put our own heart, love and work into something, it makes it feel all the more special.
That's why it's a great idea to be creative. There are many ways to be creative - gardening, drawing, painting, sewing and other arts and crafts are all ways we can be creative.
When I draw, paint or sew, nature and animals is often my inspiration, either through what I choose to create, or reusing things I have, to create something new with them, by upcyling things rather than buying new, I feel like it stops less waste and lowers what I consume, which is good for nature, animals and the environment.
Since January is International Creativity Month, it's a good idea to get creative, with it being winter in the Northern hemisphere and having long days, it's a good way to bring some sunshine into our lives.
If you are going to throw something out, why not see if you could create something new with it, or even reuse it for a different purpose. It's fun creating something new with something old.
There are plenty of ways we can be creative, it's a great way to relax, put something new into the world, and, this month, can brighten up the winter days. 🖌🎨
