  1. Assemble a sculpture using only items in your junk drawer.
  2. Create a portrait using only words and text.
  3. Find and explore the oldest building in your town.
  4. Use a magnifying glass to focus on small objects or their parts - fabric textures, leaves, etc. - and draw or paint what you see.
  5. Create a playlist of songs that tell a story.
  6. Happy Anniversary to the Creative Idea of the Day! Celebrate anything you like by doing any creative thing you like.
  7. Go to a reading.
  8. Using a randomly generated group of words, develop a word-based game or puzzle using these words.
