Many hashtags exist and cover every day of the week, so there is most certainly something for everyone. It’s a great way to make friends, chat with other like minded people and post content on a regular basis. Finding the right activity for you shouldn’t be too hard, especially with our guide to some of the best hashtags out there.

Each one involves photography, which maybe obvious I know, how else will you get your creation of works of art on social media. With phone cameras it can be as basic as point and shoot, this is how many people do it, myself included. Others use proper cameras, fiddle about with the settings and ultimately get better results, which can also be done on a phone to some degree. It’s all trial & error and what works best for you.

Some activities choose to have a logo and matching watermark, with our weekly #SigfigScene this is optional but is always available via the dedicated page found here, along with other variations of it.

Most centre themselves around Minifigures, some feature MOCs (my own creation) and others focus on Art. They all involve our shared love of LEGO, which is the point, meeting new people and sharing our works of art online for all to see.

Below are some hashtag activities to get involved in:

#SigfigScene:

Up first is a shameless plug (again) of mine and Mark’s (@brick_beat) weekly Wednesday feature called #SigfigScene. Here you grab your Sigfig (mini you) and pop them in a scene of your choice, it could be a LEGO set, MOC or real world location. Our logo can be found on its own dedicated page here.

Below are a few examples of #SigfigScene. We encourage followers to add a little story to do with the scene, these are often fun and give context to the photo.

#MosaicsOnMonday:

Monday’s are stereotypically seen as a ‘blue‘ or low day, it’s the first day back at work for most and often a struggle. But not anymore! Take part in the amazing #MosaicsOnMonday hosted by @virginia_bricks, @johnbtoys and @brick_beat!

If you haven’t guessed it by the title, this weekly feature asks you to get creative and produce a work of art. Most choose LEGO DOTS to work with but you can use any LEGO elements you like, it doesn’t even have to be flat. Check out Dana’s (@virginia_bricks) amazing 3D Mosaics below.

#CMFHabitats23:

This next one isn’t on a set day each week, there are select times of the month/year to take part. Jen (@brickfambuilds) hosts many Habitat builds throughout the year with the latest one (now ended) being #CMFHabitats23.

They are built around a certain layout, 8x8x8, and are themed to make it more fun. Part Habitats have revolved around CMFs, Disney, Harry Potter, Muppets, and a vast array of other themes.

#DinoFunFridays:

A favourite of mine is hosted by Monique (@thebrickbheanie) and takes place in Fridays, #DinoFunFridays.

She combines Dinosaurs and LEGO to form this hashtag, two of my personal favourite things. Often you’ll find Minifigures dressed as Dinosaurs or a Sigfig caught up in a Dino themed scene.

#FigtographyTuesday:

A brand new Tuesday feature has emerged called #FigtographyTuesday, hosted by two of The Brick Boyz, Jake (@lets_brick_it) and Martin (@boombrickz). The weekly challenge requires you to step outside, Minifigure in hand, and take an outdoorsy photo.

#TwelveMinuteTuesday:

Another weekly challenge brought to you on a Tuesday is this aptly named hashtag, #TwelveMinuteTuesday.

Hosted by three friends, @katilego4fun, @84builder and @the.lego.mom, the challenge is simple, set a timer for 12 minutes, build until the timer sounds and then share your accomplishment online. Simple and fun!

#LetsBuildSeries:

I don’t personally know much about this one but I’ve heard and seen some amazing things about it.

This activity is hosted by @brickhuntress and the theme changes each month along with an additional themed hashtag, but you essentially build and share anything you want with that particular theme in mind.

#JohnnyThunderThursday:

Another hashtag hosted by the talented @brickfambuilds, this time focusing on a single Minifigure, Johnny Thunder.

#JohnnyThunderThursday is simple is concept, grab a Johnny Thunder Minifigure and take a photo. I guess the only hard part is sourcing a Minifigure, which is easy enough through Bricklink/BrickOwl or eBay. This of curse happens every Thursday and it a fun way to get involved with the same character each week, why not make a story?!

#LEGOHaturday:

Last but in no means least is something to do on the weekend, Saturday has now become #LEGOHaturday!

Hosted by @adrian_c308, @Inappropriatepiratebricks and @LEGO.dad.and.the.kids. Their hashtag is very fun and very simple, grab your Sigfig and pop them in a Hat, done. This can be a lot of fun and whacky, there must be a ton of hats out there that haven’t been used yet, which one will you choose?

There are of course many more available to take part, if you kq ow a good one please feel free to contact us or leave a comment below and we’ll add it to the list.

The LEGO community is a great place to be and hosts of these weekly/monthly events are usually very friendly and open to questions so don’t be afraid to ask what the guidelines are and if you genuinely want help.

Thank you for reading this short but hopefully insightful blog post, we hope you have fun making memories!
