Maybe Pomodoro isn't suited for handmade crafts...

Good evening ✩.*˚
It's Jiamin 🫶🏻✨
I am also a handmade artist 🎶
My main work is...

I make stationery clips like these 📎
They can be used as bookmarks, added to gifts, or used as markers in your planner 🤗

When I'm working, time flies by so fast that I'm often surprised ((((；ﾟДﾟ))))

Time is limited, so I wanted to make good use of it and recently tried introducing the Pomodoro technique.
For handmade crafts, the 25 minutes would end just as I was getting into the mood and ideas started flowing... so it didn't work efficiently at all 😭
However, I thought it was very good for tasks like drafting or writing notes, and taking photos for card readings!

At first, I made a bulleted list of things I wanted to do and had ChatGPT create a Pomodoro schedule for me, but...
Since I understood how much I could get done in 25 minutes after the first day, I made my own schedule from the second day on 😊
It seemed better to have a little bit of leeway rather than pushing right up to the 25-minute limit 🫶🏻✨

I believe the key to making effective use of time is to grasp how long your own tasks take 🗝✨

Once you know how many minutes it takes you to do something, you understand what you can pack into those 25 minutes 😊

I think it would be good for everyone to try using Pomodoro to make effective use of your time too 🙆‍♀️
