Stained Glass Making (if you find a good shop) can be a close knit group of people and help you get good. I found it very easy to pick up it just requires a steady hand, and a good eye to figure out what piece to cut form where in the glass.

Gardening is also something I enjoy. Learning about plants and keeping them healthy year round. It is very satisfying to have a harvest of your own plant (I grow a decent sized Tabasco pepper plant.) Though this turns into a more solo task unless you do it in a community garden or something like that.
