No special supplies? No motivation or ideas? NO problem!!!

All of these ideas will work with anything on hand and require no special supplies. Just show up, create, and enjoy! I’m working as usual with an @ArcherandOlive notebook aka my most favorite.

Idea 1: don’t look and doodle then color it in

Idea 2: color a word with many mediums/colors

Idea 3: use a sticker or paper on page as inspiration

Bonus idea: color in a coloring book

Bonus idea: color with just water and a paintbrush if you can’t commit

The ideas here are to get that ball of creativity rolling- and none have to take more than 5 minutes.
