25 Things For Anyone On The Hunt For A New Hobby

A beginner-friendly crochet kit to make cute plant friends for your car or desk — no watering necessary to keep these little guys alive. This kit comes with all the necessary tools to start your crochet journey and even a how-to video guide if creating a magic ring is just not clicking. A diamond bookmark kit that'll have you wanting to read more just so you can show off your dazzling creation. It includes hundreds of small diamonds, clay glue, and a single pen so you'll be locked in for hours placing each individual sparkle down. A sticker-by-number book to put your mind at ease as you create beautiful floral designs without the stressful mess. Unlike the usual paint version, there's no need to panic when you accidentally cover the wrong number or leave white gaps — just lift and re-stick until you're satisfied with your seamless work. Bonus: The pages are perforated for easy tear, so you can have a gallery of paint-like pieces (your guest won't even know they're stickers). Origami Extravaganza, a how-to guide in creating all you can imagine right out of paper like a frog, a crane, or even a whole garden of paper flowers. It comes with fun, colorful sheets and various pages of tutorials ranging from beginner to advanced. You'll have the coolest party trick once you master them all! A TikTok-viral coloring book full of the cutest little homes and characters — you'll wish you could just live in their world. You can lay back, watch your favorite reality shows, and color the night away! Or a reverse coloring book if you need more of a challenge. This has pages of blobs and brush strokes so you can be creative with what you see and outline a masterpiece. No more coloring inside the lines; you are the lines! A botanical Lego set just challenging enough that you'll stay busy through your favorite movie, but not so hard that it takes a hundred years (have you seen the Hogwarts castle set?!). Once you're done with this 758-piece set, you'll have cute little plants to decorate your place *and* a new fixation. A Buddha Board designed to let you "paint" with just water, which slowly fades away as you let it dry. This allows you to just doodle over and over again without fear of mess or needing to have a perfect piece of art. It was inspired by Zen mindfulness to teach the art of letting go and living in the moment. There are absolutely no stakes here! A pack of colorful air-dry clay sure to have you obsessed as you make trays and trinkets galore. The vibrant colors will inspire you to create every animal or character imaginable — BRB, gonna go sculpt 100 sea creatures and reenact Finding Nemo. A friendship bracelet kit that'll have you making jewelry for every stranger you meet (the world is your Taylor Swift concert). You'll truly never stop making earrings, bracelets, and necklaces with the endless tubs of colorful beads and charms. Let's be real — your favorite store clerk DOES need a matching BFF bracelet with you. A sourdough starter kit so you can join in on the trend and have fresh-baked bread all the time! The sourdough community can seem a little intimidating, but this provides you with every tool and a step-by-step guide so you can experience that initial satisfying cut of perfectly baked bread. Your sandwich game is about to be next level! A book nook kit for the little trolls and creatures that live in your shelves. This whimsical kit comes with tiny furniture, LED lights, and decor that you'll spend hours intricately arranging. It will put your patience (and your shaky hands) to the test, but it'll also be *so* satisfying to see your finished model all lit up as a magical "room" in between your books. A complete baking set if you also were obsessed with Cake Boss and thought, "I can do that!" Now you can practice your skills to become the next great baker, and if you mess up — you can just eat the evidence. An embroidery set in case you've been searching for a "couch rotting" activity that's actually productive. This kit is super beginner-friendly with pre-stamped designs, an embroidery hoop, and bunches of thread in case your first attempt ends up in knots. Now you can sink into your couch while still using your hands for more than just scrolling. A felting kit to create tiny little creatures that'll keep you company as you rewatch The Office for the hundredth time. It comes with 40 vibrant colors, so you'll never run out of fun things to make. In fact, you'll probably have enough creations to act out the entire Dundie Awards episode. A copy of Wreck This Journal if you also begged your parents to get you one in 2013. (Now we have grown-up money!) This is truly designed to be wrecked, ripped, and destroyed as you go through each page — with endless prompts to really get your creative juices flowing. A wood carving kit to release your stress and enter into the world of calming whittling. It may look daunting at first, but this kit comes with design outlines, a sharp carving knife, and a how-to tutorial so you can feel like a pro. And don't worry: It comes with protective wrapping so you won't lose a finger as you try to relax. A pocket watercolor kit that you can pull out as you wait restlessly at the bus stop if artistic inspiration strikes (or your phone dies on you). No need to carry pounds of art supplies — just clip the wooden paint palette to any journal and let your water brush lead the way. A sushi-making kit to experiment with a new culinary hobby that isn't just ordering takeout. This kit provides everything from a sharp sushi knife to a rice bazooka that will actually give you restaurant-quality sushi rolls instead of a failed bowl of poke. A punch needle kit that'll have you creating *and* endlessly gifting the cutest coasters. This is the perfect craft if crocheting or sewing isn't your cup of tea, but you still want that "cozying up on the couch" activity. A DIY cheese kit to impress your friends at your next charcuterie night, or if you want to scratch that itch of kneading fresh mozzarella (it looks so slimy). You can make four batches of your choice of ricotta, farmer cheese, or mozzarella — but if you can't choose just one, there's an option for all of the above. Just provide the milk, and you'll feel like an Italian artisan in no time. A nostalgic Shrinky Dinks set that'll mentally transport you back to your sixth-grade bedroom as you spend hours drawing, baking, and creating thousands of keychains, charms, earrings, and ornaments. (Now you know what everyone is getting for Christmas!) A candle-making kit for those who love to switch out their home's signature scent every few weeks. The delicious scents and bright dyes give you the creative freedom to make whatever candles you crave. (No need to wait for fall to burn a yummy apple scent.) The dried flowers and custom labels will also put you over the top — you might just want to set up your own soy candle business. A vibrant mushroom cottage puzzle that'll have you color-coding and separating edge pieces for hours. This 1,000-piece design isn't one you can finish in an hour, so grab your hot tea, turn up your audiobook, and puzzle the night away! Or a wooden, mechanical puzzle if the boring 2D versions are child's play. It comes with small, detailed pieces that will put your brain to work and challenge your precision as you put it all together. Unlike with regular puzzles, you'll be left with a fully functional music box to play you a beautiful tune to enjoy after hours of work.

Warner Bros. Discovery Stock (NASDAQ:WBD) Gains, Off-Beat Sports Strategy Continues

When entertainment giant Warner Bros. Discovery (WBD) lost most of its rights to the NBA, some began to wonder what this would mean for Warner's sports stances. Well, as we discovered, it meant something rather interesting: a greater focus on less-considered sports. And while the inevitable joking comparisons to 'ESPN 8: The Ocho' came up, the idea still stuck. And now, Warner's connection to All Elite Wrestling is getting a boost from streaming as well. Investors were fine with this, sending shares up fractionally in the closing minutes of Wednesday's trading. Elevate Your Investing Strategy: Take advantage of TipRanks Premium at 50% off! Unlock powerful investing tools, advanced data, and expert analyst insights to help you invest with confidence. Warner recently renewed its five-year contract with All Elite Wrestling (AEW), though added a new wrinkle: some of the AEW content would make its way to the Max platform, streaming live. While TNT and TBS, Warner's linear channels, would still show AEW content—particularly AEW Collision and AEW Dynamite—Max would also get access to those events starting in January. Further, AEW content would start being available on Max, and the live pay-per-view events would also come to Max, available at a discount over normal pay-per-view pricing. Interestingly, this is not the first time that media companies have gone after 'combat sports' to help bolster interest. Disney's (DIS) ESPN has Ultimate Fighting Championship action, and it is far from alone. Putting It Together Better yet, Warner has a new game coming up that will deliver on a property that has supporters in multiple directions. The game is LEGO Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight. Sadly, the game will not be available until 2026, but when it is, it will be available for PC, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X and S, and the Switch 2. President and CEO of streaming and games at Warner Bros. Discovery, JB Perrette, noted 'Our remarkable team at TT Games is working hard to deliver a fresh take on the beloved Batman universe, offering new and improved features beyond previous LEGO games that will excite both longtime fans and gamers of all levels.' Bringing together LEGO and Batman has worked well for Warner in the past, and there is little reason to believe lightning will not strike again here. Is WBD Stock a Good Buy? Turning to Wall Street, analysts have a Moderate Buy consensus rating on WBD stock based on 10 Buys and eight Holds assigned in the past three months, as indicated by the graphic below. After a 50.52% rally in its share price over the past year, the average WBD price target of $13.68 per share implies 18.29% upside potential.
