If you're hesitant to shop online amidst the COVID-19 pandemic, Elite Daily spoke with Elizabeth McGraw, professor and director of the Center for Infectious Disease Dynamics at Pennsylvania State University about potential risks about receiving packages during this time. "We have no evidence of people getting infected from packages, however, given what we know about how long the virus can live on surfaces it is best to take some precautions," she says. "I would not stop online shopping, although I would certainly only order much needed products to reduce the impact on the system. I would also take some precautions. When a package arrives, use gloves to handle it and also let is sit for three days before opening."
So, if you've found yourself attached to your phone or just want a fun activity to do, these art projects can be a refreshing break. Turn off your notifications, and instead turn on a chill playlist of all your favorite songs. Then, get your paint brushes or sewing needles ready to make something truly beautiful.
