What kinds of creative things do you do - post a picture here in this thread. If have trouble loading pic, save to your device & load file from device
this is a watercolor I did when I was thinking this world needs a little peace. what looks like the moon or the sun is actually the flash reflecting off the glass in the frame. But I think it is a nice effect. soulsings
Tutorial to post pictures (works on browser login not on app login)
- Save picture file with Alpha letters only - no symbols like % $ # etc
- Save picture as JPG file. If pic is other format you can open it in a photo editing program and save it as JPG or jpeg that ends in .jpg
- The picture adding tool is in the tool bar above the post you are doing in a rectangle with trees in it. It is located to the left of the link icon just right of middle of the page. Click on that.
- You get two options upload from your device by clicking on Choose Files or give web address. I find the most reliable way is to upload from my device clicking on Choose Files
- Many websites that host pictures do not work maybe because they do not store them as JPG files.
- It is always interesting to know a little bit about the pic so type in some text.
- Remember to click on Update Post when finished.
Someone asked me to see if the app worked with posting a pic. My first attempt did not work with the app did not post pic nor did the 2nd attempt. I logged out of the 7 cups app and I logged in to 7cups on phone in a browser on phone (or computer) and it works fine. Sorry for you app only users.
If anyone else can post a pic with the app, please let me know what your method is by message at is. www.7cups.com/@soulsings
I also try be creative with how I dress - recent decluttering and years of looking into how to do so (read the Marie Kondo books and watched more youtube videos and made Moreno Pinterest boards then I can count) has made choosing my outfit more enjoyable.
I also try be creative with my makeup, and how I care for my health. I try only use natural makeup, eat well and hydrate often and go for at least a 30 minute walk every day. Using my journal and helping others helps my mental health. Budgeting and listening to audiobooks and affirmations and reading books on wealth improves my financial health (when and if one puts it into practice).
Some things I’d like to improve on is asking for help and getting up and going to bed earlier. I also want to use my planner consistently. Finally, I hope to learn to invest my money rather then just spend it and in my home, I hope to only surround myself with things I absolutely love or need.
I color in coloring books. I've found that rainbow was too bright, so I learned to use only one color like blue, but in different shades of blue from extremely light sky, to highlight bright blue, and a dark navy blue to create variety in the coloring page.
I'll return to edit with pics of the finished products, my main focus is my 7cups internship and driving lessons right now; But I make soap bars and oils 🥰 🧼
@SirenOfSerenity
Making soap sounds like a fun and relaxing hobby. I wish you luck with your internship and driving lessons. ❤️
You are so talented! This is beautiful!
I like taking pictures. And I love trees. This is one of my faves across the street from where we live. It was taken during the winter. Have many versions of it. I like winter shots because you can see the real bones and arteries of the tree. This is one of my hobbies.

I love that bright blue sky. You have such a poetic way of describing nature. It's nice to read. It makes me appreciate nature more, instead of overlooking it.
The picture I just posted got tipped sideways... hmmm. Here's another one..
Caught this shot a couple years ago right after a light rainfall.
@EmbStitcher33 I am sorry your pic got posted sideways. I had that happen and I took a photo editing program and rotated it 90 degrees. If you do not have such a program, post the pic and I will use the program to try to fix it.
Beautiful picture of a rose! Thank you!
@soulsings
It's no biggy. I did upload it in the Right position. Something happened in the transition. I have tons of graphic programs...lol. Left over's from my pursuit of a graphic arts career.
Why do they always have to be creative? What's wrong if they are not? 😭
@tidySailboat7966
There's a lot of different kinds of creative... creatives here may not be anything that you resonate with. Creativity is more than things you do with your hands... it can be anything you find joy in 😋
But it's not what "creative" means,..
@tidySailboat7966
What does "creative" mean to you? Could mean different things, to different people.
@tidySailboat7966 there is something about the creative spirit that inspires people.
Do not be sad, you can just be whoever you are and that is fine with me.
@soulsings
Love your reply Soul. My belief is that every individual ONE of us is a precious life. We don't have to prove anything to anyone. We are here to make our own happiness in what ever flavor, mode or color that fits our own souls. At times the search to find something to be happy about can be hard. But I believe you can find it if you keep looking. And yeah, it's not always something big... I don't want to miss the small things that can bring me up when I'm down...
For some reason, I can't add pictures
@tidySailboat7966 it only takes jpgs with simple alphabet letter names
Beautiful
