S/O what fun thing did you order for yourself?

I just ordered a facial steamer from Amazon, although it won't be here until Monday. My April facial is cancelled so I decided to treat myself.

I haven’t ordered anything online - but recently I bought (before the shelter in place orders) water colors, paper and brushes and I’ve been really enjoying experimenting with water colors. I have to admit it kind of looks like something a toddler did but it is super relaxing.

Y’all are making me want to bust out my coloring book and pencils!

Um, fun for me is probably a lot different than fun for y’all. I like to organize so I bought some labels for our recently purged and reorganized Christmas boxes. Here is where DH would like to point out that we have over a dozen boxes, 6 of them those ginormous 5 or 6 feet long ones. But they are a well organized and well labeled group of boxes!

eta: Oh and green bags to help save the fresh produce we are buying more than a week’s worth at a time. Super excited about saving money and not having to rely on canned and frozen veggies.

But my birthday is in a week and I’m probably buying some new pills & knobs for my kitchen and I’m super excited about that!

I remember covering my head with a towel and leaning over a pot of boiling water as a teen, I’m sure this is a better idea 

Do you make cards? Jennifer McGuire does a lot of watercolor techniques for her cards and I love the results. I’ve been wanting to try them but never get around to buying the paper. I’m going to right now while I’m thinking about it!

eta: Done, thanks for the motivation! But daaang. Not getting it until May because Amazon is prioritizing their shipping based on the type of item. Which I understand and appreciate but what a let down, I was ready to play this weekend.

I ordered a really cute leather mini-backpack in lavender made for carrying knitting projects! Of course, I can't take it anywhere right now, but still thrilled with it.

I got a Kindle Paperwhite! I only read real books, and am technologically challenged so it will be hard! I have a good amount of library books, but on Monday worried that this will last longer than expected. So I bought one! I hope I can figure out how to link it to my library. But was told kindle paperwhite doesn't use Libby and that's what my library uses! And now my school district decided the President is correct, and everything will be back to normal by Easter (said sarcastically). My books will last me another month, so not sure whether to return it or keep it.

Ordered an Echo Park Warehouse box and some jeans and flowery tops from Old Navy as a birthday gift to myself. All of my anniversary and birthday celebration plans were cancelled so I needed a little pick me up.

Some books are set up so you can continually scroll through.... others you have to touch the side of the screen to turn the page... but it is not really swiping... just a tap

Well I was on the puzzle thread so I went to galison.com and ordered 2 super cute puzzles!

DD14 and I took a wool felting class at a yarn/knitting store late last year and loved it.  We bought a bunch of supplies but haven't done much, but we made some leprechaun gnomes this weekend since we had all the time in the world.   Absolutely agree the stabbing is therapeutic! Enjoy it!

I make sure to wear my finger cots!  I can’t imagine the language my coworkers (4 legged) would hear if I stabbed my self with one of those.  

I have never used an Aerogarden, I do regular container gardening, but only started a few things this year. I've wanted one for years though and watched tons of YouTube videos from people who use them and figured they are worth the time and expense because you can get a really good grow if you maintain it properly.

The Aerogardens are surprisingly small (the biggest ones about the size of an inkjet printer), and I have a place for mine in a dark corner of the living room. But the lights are very bright and shine up to 18 hours a day, so you have to be mindful of where you put them. They're not really noisy, the pump is a small aquarium pump, but the light panel is very bright.

TBH, it's more of a toy for me. I put what I'd normally spend on spring garden center browsing into it as a consolation this year, and will use it to start seeds indoors for the outside garden in future seasons. You can buy special seed starter trays to fit them just for that purpose.

Amazon had a few models for great prices last weekend, and I think Aerogarden.com is still running a sale too.
