@mauvefox I can't say I have enough income to frequently buy all the odds and ends of things and quite frequently attempt a jankey version with whatever I can find to approximate the supplies needed for the desired outcome. Sometimes that triggers a rabbit hole collecting new knowledge from researching adequate substitutes, which means also learning the why behind how things work the way they do too. 😅 I can say though, my obsession with pain pens has not dwindled and my kids frequently use them too. It cuts down on the mess that I already am, especially while arting, and are much more harmonious with on the go arting which is appreciated for how much I bus/mob around constantly. Oh! One cool thing I could say is a hobby that I had a 5 or so year dry spell after throwing out my up to 9 leaf collection of would be 4 leaf clovers! Within the past week or so that I started being able to find them again, I have gotten my collection up to about 13 or 14! I even found a 5 leaf one and I didn't expect more that 4 leafers because the goat decimated the mutant patch I used to get my 5-9 leafers from.
Fellow AuDHDer here! Plenty of hobbies, but have mostly been focusing on powerlifting and hiking to manage my ADHD and beginning to get into photography and travel! Recently went to the Philippines and am planning to go back later this year!
Love researching and reading studies! Especially those related to Psychology, Exercise Science, Neuroscience, and Neurodivergence...
I'm also into online gaming, as I helped found an online gaming community within an mmorpg during COVID. Still enjoy teaching raids on the weekends when I do have plans.
I do resin casting.
Reading herbal books! I absolutely NERD OUT! I love to research alternative ways to self heal and adjust.
Extracting the medicinal properties from plants and turning them into something useful like medicine or cream. Hiking so I can plant identify. Spiritual education, I love learning about other cultures traditions and beliefs. Kayaking and Grounding The Beach And finding new restaurants because I’m a foodie!
Cryptozoology and cuddling
I'm an herbalist, I play pool and chess, I love exploring nature
.
Playing chess, buying books that I don't have the shelf space for, and getting back into woodburning.
@Josh8787 That is an absolutely beautiful model! It looks like a caravel. I love the detail. Are those pieces laser cut?
I inherited similar models from my grandfather, the Carabela Española and the larger Fragata Española. They're beautiful.
@TxTom I believe the are laser cut. The come as kits from companies like Rokr, did the ship, and ugears. Those models are wonderful.
Writing. Gardening (+200 gladiola bulbs, +250 tulip bulbs, 6 fruit trees, 6 tomato plants, succulent garden). And glass.

@Sideon Those are badass. I really like the crows
The ravens arranged as a trefot/triskelion are very cool. I've collected a few bottles based on the label artwork or bottle design, such as the Ravenswood wine bottle, which features a similar design.
My hobbies are astrophotography and playing guitar. I just sent a telescope off to a dark site in the desert of Utah and I'm super excited about it.
The soul nebula
@Sideon and @justj123 Wow 😍 Thank everyone for sharing. I'm enjoying reading them all. 😊
I make all kinds of art and jewelry, gardening. I also have a hobby of spreading silliness, whimsy, and joy in public parks and other places by googly eye bombing things, leaving painted rocks, fairies and gnomes.
Reading (sci fi is my favorite) Art (I make these mandalas lately) Brazilian jiu jitsu (my favorite favorite hobby I wish I would have started earlier)
Dancing.. used to do partner dancing now just weird hippie shit (contact improv, ecstatic dance)
I bike too but that's just for transportation
@theHugAlchemist we should plan a contact improv / ecstatic dance / cuddling meet sometime ☺️ no idea where we'd do so, but it'd be super fun!
I run and ride my bike
I like playing with my home computer lab, and I'm getting into sim racing. An aluminum profile rig might be going on my Christmas list. (If I can wait that long!!!) lol
Making my own kombucha.
Making soap
You're looking at it
@pmvines I imagine you making this sound...
@cuddlefaery
You should know 😂
@Velvet_Heart Great rock painting!!! I dabbled in that for a bit.
@Velvet_Heart those m&m rocks are hilarious! So creative
Here are some pic of some of my woodworking projects
I love painting but especially writing. I wrote a biography for a guy from the UK who asked me to write it in first person, during Covid and between two jobs. Turned out pretty good I'd say.
@BearCraft Love those pens! You should sell them.
