Hi, friends! I’m Andrea Lake, and I’m so excited to celebrate National Hobby Month with you. Life can feel so busy, and it’s easy to get caught up in our daily tasks. That’s why it’s so important to make time for hobbies—they bring us joy, help us relax, and give us a chance to be creative.
I work a full-time office job, where I spend my days talking to coworkers and clients. When I get home, I love spending time with my family and my dogs. But one of my favorite things to do is head to my craft room to work on memory-keeping projects and plan my days in a creative way. Some of the projects I make even find a home in my office, adding a personal touch to my workspace.
This National Hobby Month, I wanted to share a fun project I made using some of my favorite Tombow products.
Supplies:
- Scrapbooking Patterned Paper, 3×4 cards, tags, mini envelopes, sticky notes
- Power Mini Glue Tape
- MONO Drawing Pen, 3-Pack
- MONO Multi XL Liquid Glue
I found a small wooden box with three sections and turned it into a simple and cute stationery and calendar holder for my office.
For the calendar section:
- Use the Power Mini Glue Tape to stick your calendar pieces onto patterned paper cards.
- Add decorations with the MONO Multi XL Liquid Glue to make each card extra special.
- Write motivational quotes on some cards using the MONO Drawing Pen 03. to keep you inspired.
For the other compartments:
- Fill one section with 3×4 cards, tags, and pretty decorative pieces.
- Use the second section for mini envelopes to hold positive notes.
A handwritten note can brighten someone’s day, and sharing something handmade is a wonderful way to celebrate Hobby Month. Keeping your favorite Tombow pens and tape handy makes it easy to create and share these thoughtful notes.
Now, I’d love to hear from you! Do you have a hobby you enjoy using Tombow products for? Whether it’s journaling, crafting, or something else, share your ideas—I’d love to be inspired by you!
With love,
Andrea
