How to inject some fun into your creative process

Because we’re in a fun industry, so let’s keep it fun!

When that batch order comes in, our usually fun job can soon feel slightly monotonous and stressful.

But the phrase “when you do something you love, you never have to work a day in your life” is so true and we’re all about keeping our creative processes fun. Read on to discover our top tips.

Put on your favourite playlist

Music can really impact your mood, so create a playlist of your favourite, upbeat tunes and play them loud when your inspiration is fading.

Take regular breaks

According to the BBC, studies since the 1990s have proven that we can only concentrate for 90-minutes before needing a 15-minute break.

So, if you’re mixing and filling moulds for hours at a time, it’s no wonder you’re feeling down! Make sure that you’re walking away from your workspace for a significant period of time every couple of hours.

Reward yourself after certain milestones

Everybody loves a treat, so make sure that you’re rewarding yourself for all the hard work that you’re doing.

Set yourself some business goals and promise yourself a reward once you’ve reached them. For example, when you’ve received 250 orders, go to that restaurant you’ve always wanted to try.

Experiment with your creations

If you only have one mould, then you’re going to get tired of seeing the same products extremely fast.

Offer a variety of bath products in a number of shapes, colours and fragrances so that you’re continually using your imagination and skills to the best of your ability.

Get chatting to other Soakies

Sometimes it’s difficult to express your frustrations to your friends and family when they don’t fully understand what you do.

So our Facebook group is a great place for you to connect with others who understand exactly what you’re going through.
