I quit work about 5 years ago to start selling things online ... which I really love but about the past year I have drifted away and now have more hobbies than work ::) My favorite now is working with polymer clay! I am hooked for life I believe. It is like therapy to me. I feel like I have to be busy all the time. I just joined fusioncash and I'm looking forward to getting to know everyone.

hi turtle1983 welcome!!
I love crafts as well, never worked with clay, I really enjoy counted cross stitch, but my eyes are getting old and dont see as well
-
I like cross stitching...playing my piano!

I would like to say I have a certain hobby, but I don't have one. Instead I have happiness in my daily routine. Throwing a football with my son, watching my kids ride their quads, pulling some weeds from my garden and flower bed, observing what little I have and just being THANKFUL, that is my own hobby!!
-
There are some crafts that I like to do but lately I just can't get into it. I do stuff on here trying to make some extra money. And play a couple games online.

Welcome you will enjoy FC! I am not a crafty person so that's not one of my hobbies. But I enjoy just being around the kiddos and playing with them outside when its not raining.

I love crafting, and I also enjoy making things with polymer clay. I haven't done so in a while because I've been crocheting a lot, but it's still in the back of my mind.
-
my hobbies are going to auctions and buying anything of some value doesnt have to be a lot but it would be good. then i resell the stuff i buy.
-
Hobbies can certainly be like therapy. I like to think that everyone has a hobby like this. I just hope such a hobby doesn't cost someone too much money.
-
I dabbled in several but none of them stuck to me.
-
I am a musician and sing and play oldies music with 2 other guys.We average doing about 10 jobs a year and practice once or twice a month.Definitely therapeutic!
-
Hobbies are not like therapy! Hobbies are therapies!
-
Do you sell your crafts on line?
That's when it would be a real win-win for you, money for doing therapy :)
-
Yes I do sell online but lately I have done more playing than selling. It is "work" to sell online because of the constant marketing required to be seen. I do great around Christmas however. :D
-
Mine is photography, and with the digital photos we have playing with them in photoshop. I take care of lots of presents for people with my photos.
-
I've always been into crafts and I'm lucky to have a job that lets me use my creative side. I don't like to spend alot of money & prices on stuff can be ridiculous. I REALLY enjoy being creative & crafty when it comes to making what I need/want, rather than over-paying for same thing.
Making EVERYTHING takes ALOT of time, but it is relaxing. (Today I'm working on making a pinata for a birthday party which will cost under $5 vs paying $10 on up at a store. Found the instructions on-line, sooo excited!!) :)

Hobbies are great, they can take your mind off of troubleing things and keep you out of trouble :)
-
I like to paint!
-
I used to have several but don't know. One hobby i loved so much was model plane building but it became a lil to costly lol (kept taking them out on the wrong days)
-
Some hobbies are like therapy, but one of my hobbies is making money online, and the way my computer has been acting up lately, it certainly isn't very therapeutic! I'm about ready to throw it out the window. I don't even have a back up laptop any more, because gave my old one to the kids, so I'll be without a computer for a week or so while this one is in the shop getting fixed.

I like doing hobbies, am thinking about selling my hand painted gourds on line, just have not started yet. I am afraid when I do I will have to start working longer and harder and it will start to feel like a job. I did e-bay for a long time before I moved and it seemed like a job after a bit. I put a lot of time in on the gourds the carved ones take a while to do.

So true that Hobbies are like therapy! My hobby is making money. Every morning when I wake up at around four or four thirty I start with fusion cash as I have for about six years. Every Saturday I go to the library and review investment articles for ninety minutes. I check the financial websites at lunch every day. On the last Sunday of every month I review my current assets and what returns they have brought me for half an hour. I then work on my investments and goals for about an hour. My spreadsheets are like your clay in that we are both creating a thing of beauty in the beholder's eyes. This is my way of calming down after working eighty to ninety plus hours per week and satisfaction settles over me whenever I see progress and growth.

I have drifted away from my hobby of plastic canvas due to lack of time but every once in a while I pick it up and start creating something ... I especially like to make gifts for ppl .. my mom and sis love homemade things.
-
I can definitely relate to that. Throughout various times in my life I have taken up crafting hobbies and realise I find them so addicting. I find it so relaxing and therapeutic to pick up a cross-stitch or Christmas craft. Last year I made the most wonderful Christmas garland with pine cones I have collected all my life. Some were from Scotland, England, Mexico, Arizona. Now every Christmas I will get out my garland and recall all the times I collected them.

I really want a hobby but i dont have one all together. I just recently read that pisces need outlets for their health. Im a pisces.
-
I started to crochet and I love it. I stopped now since the weather is much nicer but I'll start again to make things for the fall. It's great to have hobbies
-
Did you quit because you retired? I wish I could quit my job and enjoy my hobbies.
