🍀 [Rolife Relaxing Moment] Decompressing outdoors with watercolors

I wanted to do some decompressing today in the fresh air and I decided to take watercolor pages with me. It was easy and relaxing. This could be good for people who feel overwhelmed by the big paint-by-numbers sets. (Completely understandable)

I like the imperfections. I think it is part of the charm of water colors. There are nicer versions of this book. I just have this one.

Tip: Let the water soak for a couple seconds to get more pigment. It worked well for me. The paint works better than I remember from childhood.

Anyway, how are you all decompressing? Crafts? Jogging? Time with family? Time away from family?



After I removed the paint strip. It tears off cleanly if you fold it first.

I like to go for a walk with the dog or my wife. Sitting in the jacuzzi also helps. And lisning to music and cuttleling with my dog. But building is my best decompression method.

This is actually the first time I’ve seen this and I really like how it’s so portable!
I decompress by playing games or crafting - miniature building has helped me through some difficult times. :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:

Yes, this morning he comes up to me and his paw pulles my arm to make me pet him. Then he lays on top of me and tries to like my whole face haha
