The Joy of Making Things

Jun 14, 2019 | This and That

I like to make things. Throughout my life, I’ve been drawn to different activities that involve creating something—so it’s no surprise I ended up choosing a design career. I’ve dabbled in acrylic painting, chalk drawing, clay sculpting, and papermaking. I took up photography for a while, and I really got into sewing a few years ago as well. One summer, I’ve even attempted to build furniture—which was a total fail. Truthfully, I never mastered any of these things, and none of them became lifelong hobbies. Nevertheless, they were all very entertaining and fun to try! What do you like making?
