I know i have during lockdown i have done yoga ,baking, and a little diy.
Has anyone else picked up some hobbies or done productive things during lockdown ?

And besides that, I have done absolutely nothing.
Sorry that I couldn't be more productive in my answer 
I ordered a diamond painting from Etsy as is knew on cold days if I couldn’t get out into the garden I’d be bored. It finally came this week and after 10 weeks off work and no sign of being back in the next few weeks I decided to start it today. I sat all afternoon when my other half was at work and I absolutely love it, and I think it will be very addicted. Looks like I might just have a new hobby.
I started diamond painting in April not long after lockdown began and only because my 12 yr old daughter wanted to do it so i ordered one for her and had a go, im now on my 5th and have around 10 more ordered, helps me relax in the evenings and not over think too much
joannecroston I really enjoyed it, when I started it on Monday I though it would take forever. It was finished on tues and although it’s great to see the finished product I felt deflated because I just loved doing it. Cant wait to do another one. I’ve been look at the big photo ones and wondered if I would get one of them but it’s maybe a bit ambitious as when I get back to work hopefully in a week or so I won’t have the same time. Have you done a photo one and if so how did it turn out?I’ve read you really need to do a big one to get the clear quality. I got my first one from Etsy and was pleased with the quality. It was a 20x25 and with postage it was around £16. Can I ask where you have been getting yours from as mine took ages to arrive. I’ve seen some a lot cheaper but they are the round diamonds and I prefer the square ones. Great to hear from other people where they get theirs from and the quality of them x
We’ve started to grow some plants using the free seedling kits we got from M&S. Never thought I’d get excited by watching them grow
I’ve taught myself how to draw/sketch. Really therapeutic. I’ve been loving drawing Disney characters
I've started taking a litter picker with me when I go for walks. I pick up bottles and cans and recyle them.
That's very community spirited of you, I wish more people did that, especially in view of my recent topic about draconian measures.
I started crocheting and have made cardigans and blankets for my neighbours new baby
