I believe that 2020 has been the year that we have spent the most time home, which isn’t a bad thing. Throughout the months, there has been plenty of projects and organizing that I have done. You might have even picked up a new skill or two. I’m calling all painters, sketch artists and crafters; I have found a way to start on new projects. If you love flowers and cannot enjoy planting right now, there’s also a kit for that. Have you ever thought about purchasing to-go kits to do at home? I have found local shops here in the Hudson Valley that sell all different kind of fun, creative and unique ways to stay stimulated while enjoying the comfort of our homes.

These kits can be used by any age group and are meant to remind us to let loose and have fun.

As we approach winter, we may be looking for a way to stay occupied yet have fun while indoors. I know that I’ll be grabbing the planting kit for sure because I miss the joy of tending to my flowers. What kind of kit would you be interested in creating?

I truly love planting flowers in my garden and I miss it greatly especially when the winter hits. This local floral kit allows florists at heart to grow seeds and watch the beauty of flowers blossom before their eyes. This idea is super cool because these flowers are edible and can be added to food or cocktails.
