Jenny Solomon has an entire room in her house dedicated to arts and crafts. She usually has 10 projects going on at the same time, and right now, she’s knitting a balloon animal, beading jewelry and learning to draw.
Solomon is wearing a necklace and bracelet she made, too. And in the free time she has left over, she plays the harp, a hobby she picked up from her childhood.
Solomon has had seasonal affective disorder (SAD) since moving to rainy Seattle from sunny Houston more than twenty years ago. She says all these projects do more than distract her when its dreary and cold outside. They make her feel warm, and more importantly—happy.
