Many of us have jobs that require us to be in an office setting for 30+ hours a week, and the reality is we are trading hours for money and not all of that time is actually used by your work tasks. I know when I worked a traditional 9-5, I would get my work done in a much quicker time period than my coworkers would, and I would be left with time leftover that either meant filling it in myself or doing extra work for the same amount of pay. I’m not advocating that you cheat your job nor that you don’t do your job at all, but you’re an adult and if you’re going to take a break, you may as well make the most of it.
One of the most requested posts I’ve received has been “how to be crafty while at work”, so I wanted to come up with a list of ways you can keep your inner artist/creative while you’re in an artist setting; especially since you’re surrounded by all those office supplies! Again, use your discretion. This list can also be inspiration for your lunch break, or for your actual free time at home. Use it how you choose!
