Sick and bored :(

So I just got back form the doctors and I'm going to be stuck in my house for quite a little bit with a chest infection. BORING!!! I need some ideas and/or crafts to keep me entertained and sane. Preferably free or very cheap. Also I can't go out and no like running around like a mad woman. I'm supposed to be getting better!! Please help me out, if I don't do something I may have to make a scarf ut of the hair I have pulled from my head out of boredom. Ew what a disturbing image. Never mind forget that x

I suggest making a wreath. That is what I have been doing. I got a willow branch wreath from the dollar store I have been using and am making a beach theme wreath for summer. But not "I'm a little kid runnin round the beach with my plastic trowel" more like "I'm a poor college student living in an apartment and I need people to think I am sophisticated with cool colored decor". I talk to much Happy Um. Also, if you cover a pool noodle nicely with things such as fabric and ribbon it works out well as a wreath. You can also paint your nails really cool. I am painting my nails white and then I painted clear scotch tape with nail polish. Once everything is dry it is cool if you cut the painted tap into cool shapes and use it as a nail decal with a top coat so it doesn't come off Happy If you have a bead loom, it's really fun to make bracelets in cool ways, like rainbow, piano, pacman etc. There are a ton more things. Shape drawing (draw a shape and add on to it) Using clay (you can make clay with cat litter, bread or paperHappy jewelery making (earrings are pretty easy) and stuff like that. If you like I can also suggest books, movies, music and TV shows Happy Pretty much what ever. AND I am sure if you have special interests (sewing, cooking ect) I have links for you. I always have links. Happy Hopeful that I helped Happy

You could try doing crafts that involve altering old t-shirts.
Making some smaller, bleaching (although that probably wouldn't be good if you were sick...), making them into scarves, or even making a quilt out of old ones you might have, if you have any sewing skills!
