Here are some of such options: 1. painters - given that they had some free time, monks and nuns resorted to painting to kill time 2. weavers - nuns would usually weave or embroider in order to create beautiful patterns of cloths 3. carvers - especially monks did this - carving wooden objects was a good way to both train and entertain themselves
