Btw this was the compilation I mentioned in my clear pva slime video, it was originally scheduled for Sept 1st but I managed to finish it earlier so I'm excited to upload it now! It features three very different types of crafting, and could hopefully be interesting if you're thinking of starting something new. Resin crafting is surprisingly simple yet satisfying to do, and it's a great way to distract you from any stress that might be piling up as the new school cycle begins. Needle felting is, of course, equally therapeutic since you get to stab away all your anger ;D, however it has a slightly longer learning curve. It's actually not technically that difficult but requires a lot of patience. Eve …...more

It's actually not technically that difficult but requires a lot of patience. Even a small piece like a leg can take 10-20 mins of continuous poking to complete. ♥ DIY Needlefelt Links ♥ Sadly the felting kit from this video is really old so it's been sold out everywhere. However here are some really similar puppy kits*: Wool Kit With Same Colours: https://goo.gl/Vd8Hfj 3 Puppy Kit - https://goo.gl/SesQJz Doge Kit - https://goo.gl/UGQvsd Pomeranian Kit: https://goo.gl/Apz1md Corgi Kit: https://goo.gl/PauUuT Larger Doge Kit: https://goo.gl/fu6vRp EXTRA WOOL (dark brown): https://goo.gl/6tdLRB IMPORTANT: If this is your FIRST time felting then be sure to get felting needles and a mat below! These are not included in the kit. Beginner Felting Tools - https://goo.gl/9Mf7KX Three Needle Felting Pen - https://goo.gl/FeC3Vd *The kit from this video has a medium-level difficulty, suitable for people who have already felted before. If you've never tried felting, then I recommend one of the easier kits/tutorials (linked below!) ♥ DIY Resin Links ♥ The cake kits require 1 full bottle of UV resin to complete. Simpler kits such as pendants or earrings need less resin.

If you are stressed then watching ASMR videos is often enough to calm you down a bit, and many people enjoy craft channels for that reason. Of course, it's even more effective if you try crafting yourself which counteracts many of the negative feelings that come with anxiety. 1) Crafting is a form of mindfulness, which encourages you to focus on the present moment instead of brooding about random things you have no control over. 2) You craft alone. Lots of mood disorders overlap with social anxiety where you really don't feel comfortable in big groups of people or uncontrollable social situations. Crafting gives you full control of your work in a solitary and safe environment. 3) You get a sense of completion. Starting and finishing a craft project is very satisfying because you feel like you achieved a goal. Sometimes anxiety or depression makes you feel like your life is going nowhere so it really helps to know you're capable of completing tasks. 4) Crafting is analogue and slow. You probably don't even realise how much time you spend staring at a screen all day. Looking at other people's lives, replying to messages, checking emails all contribute to stress. So it genuinely helps if you just take 1-2 hours away from the digital world, spend some time listening to music and making something with your hands. ♥ Instagram ♥   / maqaroon   (c) Joanna Zhou 2017 Contains Music from Epidemic Sound (http://www.epidemicsound.com) This video is not sponsored but contains products that were sent to me for review :)!
