things

to paint ?, everything needs to be painted but that is not normal I realize that people get bored. I am here to help you. Oh, this shirt is very bright on camera. Wow, it looks like the chicken family. I created a list here for the first time. I am using this clipboard. I'm excited about it, I have a series of five minute craft videos to do

when

you're bored, but today we're doing all new ideas, these aren't limited to five minutes, these

things

could keep you busy for weeks if you do it right. okay so no distractions i need some water please water i'm going to go get some water real quick okay let's get into this number one redoing an old piece of art the first step of Um, locating some shitty works of art, this shouldn't be too difficult.

I'm going to go to the depths of my artwork. I've brought you to the closet in my room where my shirts are organized in rainbow order. This is where we must focus. This is where we will find them. Oh, hello, I have a box here. of my very old artwork, I completed most of these when I was 11 years old. What the hell is this? Oh no, oh boy, half of this isn't even art, it's just weird, weird stuff. The circus is now illegal. Saying lazy is now illegal to pour. your heart is now illegal time is now illegal I'm afraid oh I wrote my dad's credit card number okay, that's smart, okay, here we come to the drawing, it looks like I was practicing my drawing oh, that's bad, bad, oh this is perfect. is the one I found it is a very cheeky looking bunny oh I love it let's redraw it I don't think I'll have to work too hard to improve it this is done I redid my bunny I've evolved slightly over the last 14 years.

So okay, cool, I drew it at a really weird angle, honestly anything is better than what it was before, but yeah, it was fun. If you kept notebooks like this when you were young, you would probably have a lot of things you could redo. Oh my god, wilbur ugly wilbur, what's the next number two? Finish something you started and didn't finish, that's why you're finishing it. So, are you the guy who does this, like starting a project and then never getting around to finishing it or losing steam halfway through? Well now it's time I have a container of squishies that I haven't finished, let me show you here.

We have a couple of failed kits. I made this one off camera a long time ago, although it looks pretty finished to me. It's kind of cute I think I never finished this one because I don't like how it went I still don't like it very much Oh I remember this was going to be a squishy in my Christmas squishy makeovers I ran out of time to finish I didn't even use the footage Oh, a cute little popsicle, this one looks almost finished, a little burger. I remember starting this probably three years ago before I did the Squishy Makeover series and I gave up because I felt like it was a lost cause I had no idea what I would end up doing in the future I'll finish this one there it is I finished my little squishy in the cute I think it turned out really cute next reorganize your art or craft supplies this is completely normal for me so I don't know about you but I love having things organized.

I am obsessed with organization. I love when things are organized, so to demonstrate this I need to find a place that is not organized, so the only place. What I could find was my junk drawer. I always start by cleaning everything, vacuuming up the crevices, the little crumbs, and then I just put everything back in order, separating things into different spaces so they stay that way. I access this drawer every day, so this is really the only place that gets super disorganized there we go much better. I feel like continuing to read or looking at an art or craft book moving forward try drawing something you're really bad at drawing you shouldn't end a sentence with a preposition These bad ideas, the idea here is that maybe if you try something you're bad at , you will struggle and feel uncomfortable when I try to think of what I would be most afraid of drawing. a realistic self portrait oh I don't know if I can do that in front of the camera oh I'm not at all excited about this so I'm going to take a picture oh I hate it so let me try I drew myself, does my face have that shape?

You know you have a funky look. Oh, it's so bad. No, I hate this. I hate this 30 minutes later and I have a very scary drawing in front of me. This is a terrible drawing right here, thankfully not. He doesn't look anything like me. I don't think this is horrible. I also don't want to spend time on realism. So this is not really realism. It's just kind of garbage. No more of that. Let's forget about what happened. No, look, I struggled, I didn't put enough time into it, to be honest, to do something like that, you have to spend hours, not 30 minutes, but I'm glad I had that experience, I'm glad I had that practice and I did it.

No, no, I wish I could have that 30 minutes ago. I might do something fun next. Try a never used supply or a rarely used supply if you're like me and a little bit more difficult just a little bit. little one, you probably have an art or craft supply lying around that you just haven't tried, whether it's a gift or an impulse purchase, it's time to try them out, okay let's find one, okay, I found these fabric markers that I have yet to do. try it can you see they smell really good they smell really good smell they really smell they really smell really good oh I need something to draw I don't know what I'm going to draw I don't feel like thinking about something outside the box right now I'm really inside the box, try something simple since I've never used them before, maybe on a different type of fabric these would work better but the colors are bleeding like crazy and they get super muddy and bleed. blood, yes, so I guess you have to let each color dry before doing anything else.

I don't have the patience for this right now. I'm not a big fan of fabric marker. I don't think it's a bad product, the colors are quite bright and vibrant, why use a marker when you can use paint? I learned something today. I'll add this to the pile of things I have to fix at some point. Watch my videos. Hello It's Me. I bought a couple different shapes. paint palettes so I have a lot to work on my ultimate goal is to cover my wall next this one has cured my boredom for the last six months paint something anything some soft examples water bottles mugs phone cases this bag this bag this bag jacket fake shoes flowers thrift store rocks scrap shelves storage containers or just like paper move on create this book or create this book too if you don't know what it is it's a set of books that I actually wrote, illustrated and published um it's okay, I'm I'm going to stop with the voice.

I made the books myself and they're available to buy on Amazon if you're interested, but they're basically just quick books, so if you like drawing or doing any kind of art, then they just offer different things. ideas on each page I really like the prompts because sometimes I have so many ideas that sometimes I get overwhelmed and it's hard to choose one, so the prompts really help me center myself and narrow my focus, you know, do I make any sense? I have a complete series. of videos about these books that you can watch, I know it's been a while since I made a new episode, but a new one is coming very soon hint hint wink wink hint next link dazzle something I don't really have a daze but but but but I have gems, so I'm going to dazzle something by hand and that's going to take a long time.

I don't even know why I have these. They have an attractive backing with a bit of adhesive, basically stickers so you can just stick them on so what should I dazzle? No, I think I need a dazzling paint palette. Come on, okay, that's it, it's completely covered. I ran out of gems. If this isn't classy, ​​then I don't know what is. It's so ugly. I love it. it's kind of satisfying um oh my god, I did it again why why me why me no no no no I'm not embarrassed so I keep decorating these paint palettes well and I keep forgetting that there's this stupid piece of clear plastic on the paint palette that invisible and I keep forgetting to take it off and then this happens, it's a real bib, but you know, this might be the best because now I can reuse these gems like this.

I think probably the smaller the gems, the better it will look. Of course, I went for the biggest gems possible anyway, you get the idea, well, it's been fun. I actually had several other ideas, but I don't think we'll get to all of them today. I've been filming all day and this will require a lot of editing, so I'll call it a day now. I hope you enjoyed this video. I hope it has helped you in some way to cure your boredom. Thanks for watching and see you around. next week goodbye
