I started swumade in December 2024 when I wanted to challenge myself to make something every day. I've always loved being creative, whether drawing or painting or crafting or baking, but found myself falling into a routine of wake up, workout, work, cook dinner, and sleep. I was guilty of doomscrolling when I had time, which drained me of creative energy and gave me the mindset of "I have no time".
I might not be the best baker or painter but each day I make something, I'm improving and learning something new. I hope I can encourage others to work on setting aside some time making or doing something that brings them joy each day.
