Hobbies to do at home in the evenings

What hobbies and interests do you have that can be done at home? As the evenings are getting darker I’d like to do something a bit more productive, as I find myself spending too much time surfing the net etc.

I like to read and gardening, but would like something else to do other than watch TV.

I like things that give fairly quick results, as I don’t have the best patience in the world unfortunately! knitting and cross stitch etc don’t interest me after trying them. Photography interests me but not really much I can do in the evenings with that I don’t think. I like up upcycle furniture but these are big projects and I’m looking for ideas for smaller things to do.

Thanks

In the run up to Christmas I like making little felt decorations. You can make them as complicated or as simple as you want, they make nice token gifts or they jazz up your tree.

Felt is super cheap from the range, embroidery thread from the works or the range.

Examples attached.

Grown up paint by numbers. DH and I are currently working on a banksy print.
