Create Mindfulness

Create mindfulness! Creating mindfulness is so important in everyone’s day-to-day lives. Here at Sizzix, a big focus this year is mindfulness and taking some time out to treat ourselves to some well-deserved me-time - something we all need from time to time.

We want to give you some tips on how to create mindfulness in your crafting, so you can use it as a little haven for relishing in some me-time.

Craft Room Clean Up

After speaking to our Sizzix Designers, having a craft room clean up really helps towards creating mindfulness, after all a tidy room equals a tidy mind! With no lingering mess, they can switch off from any worries or stresses in their day-to-day lives and enjoy what makes them happy. Our craft rooms here are Sizzix always get organized and cleaned up at the end of every making day.

The Sizzix Designers organise by product, that means everything from Glitters to Paints are lined up on their shelves and Die Sets and Embossing Folders are organized into their very own Sizzix Storage Folders. To help keep your Dies Sets and Embossing Folders tidy, we recommend the Sizzix Storage Printed Magnetic Sheets which are the perfect tool for easy storage.

We love seeing the clever ways our crafters clean and organize their craft spaces, so why not send us some before and after pictures of yours? We <3 to see them. Simply use the hashtag #mymakingstory, we are always checking this hashtag and you may even feature on our social channels!

Mindful Makes

Another popular mindfulness activity amongst our Sizzix Designers is making. Staying focused on a project can help to take their minds away from day-to-day life for a couple of hours and enjoy a little time to themselves.

If you are looking to create for mindfulness, focus on crafting something you LOVE! Whether it’s a home décor idea that features your much-loved pet or a card to say 'I love you' to a special friend or loved one. We could all benefit from being more mindful, spreading the love and using crafting to create some positivity.
