Looking for a way to relieve your stress and searching for a calming outlet to distract yourself? Here are 5 DIY Kits that you can easily purchase online to work on! 🤤


1. Dollhouse Miniature Kit ($15) 🏠

2. Bookmark Embroidery ($4.90) 📘

3. Paint by Numbers ($10) 🎨

Yes, this was very popular during the Circuit-Breaker lockdown, but this simple activity has been proven to be stress-relieving, and it also improves cognitive function and boosts memory. There are many designs to choose from, you can even customise and paint your own portrait. 🧑‍🎨

👉🏼 Here is a listing from Shopee that you can check out!


4. Diamond Painting ($7) 💎

Think Paint by Numbers and Cross-Stitching, but mixed. Diamond painting is simply applying tiny resin “diamonds” to a numbered adhesive canvas to create stunning Diamond Art. This has been trending lately because of ASMR tiktoks! ✨

5. Adult Colouring Books ($1+) ✏️

Who said colouring is only for children? Colouring has many benefits, such as improving your focus, sleep, and even motor skills. Not to mention that it is very inexpensive and easy to embark on! 🧸
