More Artist Date Ideas

Have you been on an artist date yet? I talk about why they are so beneficial in this post from last month. This bumper crop of ideas has a distinctly summery feel and are perfect for balmy days as well as rainy Mondays like today!

1. Go somewhere local and send a postcard home.
2. Go fruit and veg picking for all the summer goodies – strawberries, raspberries, plums, cherries, sugar snap beans, courgettes.
3. Make sorbet using your favourite fruity flavours. I think this Pineapple sorbet may have to go to the top of my ‘to eat’ list.
4. Go butterfly spotting. I was very pleased with my recent Orange Tip sighting!
5. Plant some herbs on your windowsill. Or go foraging a la Crumbs to Crunch in this post.
6. Make a summer playlist.
7. Create a vision board of all the places you’d like to travel.
8. Decorate your work space with inspiring quotes, cute postcards and precious photographs.
9. Make up your own cocktail or mocktail. Make sure you give it a jazzy name.
10. Spend some time in a second hand bookshop. Check out my post about it here.
