Be Createfull

Jo's birthday is tomorrow (wooohooo!) and we're celebrating with an episode all about her. Madison's questions cover the whole spectrum, including where Jo gets her drive, how she feels about her grey hair, and her favorite Harry Potter character.

Phew! We're tired. Like, really tired. We're having an impromptu (and unedited) chat about why we're exhausted and how we're coping. We also talk about crafting with kids, which was our original topic for the week, and perfectly timed for anyone participating in #merryMakeDo holiday craft kits with youngters.

The holidays can mean a lot of time sitting around with family, wondering what to do. Especially this year, since we're all trying to stay at home as much as possible. That makes now the perfect time to teach someone how to do that craft you love to do. When you get tired of doing puzzles and playing cards, you'll all have something createfull to occupy your time!

It's that time of year when everyone is decking halls, stuffing stockings, and participating in general merriment. It's also that time of year when everyone feels a little more stressed, busy, and exhausted. So this week we're discussing how tell-tale signs that we're doing too much, how we manage our to-dos, and a few tips that help get us through the busyness.

The quilt raffle mentioned in this episode isn't happening (yet). You can still support Make.Do. for Giving Tuesday through Facebook and Instagram!
