Top 5 Hobbies To Try This Spring

Photography

Learning the basics of photography, such as camera angle, exposure, lighting, and composition is relatively easy to do. Once you learn the basics you will be able to capture beautiful memories and landscapes. Ideas are endless, take pictures of your family and friends. Enjoy going outdoors and taking scenic pictures or even traveling and exploring the beauty of new places.

There are so many great cameras to start with. I highly recommend starting with a Canon camera. I have used many different camera brands and so far this one is my favorite. It’s fairly easy to use as well. Whether you are taking product shots, portraits or landscapes this one is very good. I always recommend going to your local Best Buy and asking questions to find the best option for yourself when making an electronic purchase like a camera.

Dance

Relax and unwind after a long day by putting on your dancing shoes! Check out classes in your area or try learning new moves from YouTube videos. Dancing is fun and great exercise.

There are many forms of dance that are all fun to try like, country line dancing, ballet, salsa, ballroom, hip hop, contemporary and yes even Pole Dancing!

If you don’t feel like joining a class you can always go in your bedroom, turn on your favorite song and dance your heart out for 20 mins, (this is always fun)! Dancing also improves your health in many ways and is such a feel good hobby!

Dancing Benefits:

Oil Painting

This is one of my favorite hobbies. Oil Painting is a very therapeutic and stress reliving hobby. Learn oil painting at your own pace by watching YouTube videos or reading inspiring how to books like this one available on Amazon.

Another fun way to learn painting is at your local art studio. Places like “Sip n Paint” allow you to enjoy a glass of wine while painting with a guide to help you learn the basics. Bring a friend or even a group with you for a memorable experience. Most art studios like this will need a reservation.

Painting at home is also very enjoyable on your own and really gets your mind off of things. After some practice you may have a master piece on your hands! Painting is very rewarding and satisfying whether you are painting with oil paints or acrylic.

Why not grab yourself a fresh canvas and paints at your local Hobby Lobby or on Amazon? Painting is so easy, and really doesn’t need to be perfect. Just think of an abstract. You can totally start off with an at home paint night, tonight! Not sure what to paint? Start by painting your favorite pet or your view outdoors.

Start a vlog

You may be asking yourself, what is a vlog anyways? Well, a vlog is a form of a blog for which the medium is video!

Do you have some kind of knowledge that you want to share with the world? Maybe you are great at something you can share with others such as your favorite healthy recipes, make-up application or traveling spots. Use YouTube or social media to share your experience with others. You can create your very own community and grow your personal or professional following.

The key to a successful vlog is to upload consistently and tell your story while grabbing your audiences attention quickly. Vlogging can be a lot of fun and makes for a very entertaining hobby! You can easily get started with a beginners vlog kit on Amazon like this one here.

Jewelry Design

The last fabulous idea on this top 5 list of hobbies to try this Spring…. jewelry design!

This is a creative hobby that will allow you to unleash your artistic abilities. The kinds of jewelry you can make are endless! From pearl bracelets, semi precious stone necklaces to silver etched rings. You can find reasonably priced supplies and kits on Etsy or even Amazon.
