Painting frames
To work on your own frames, this can be really fun. I bought these wood grain frames and stained them. Here is the result.
Soothing aromatherapy
Sometimes with winter, we just want to go inside, light a tea candle and take it slow for a bit, perhaps meditate and put on some relaxing music. Aromatherapy with for example calming lavender, energy boosting ylang-ylang, or why not something refreshing to de-stress with such as lemongrass – can be nice at these times.
