Assisted Living Valentine Fun
Hello Saturday Friends!
This past week I had the privilege of making Valentine projects with some wonderful older folks at a local assisted living facility.
As always with any new and different experience, I was nervous and wanted to back right out...but I had no reason to fear. The men and women (12 of them) were all so sweet and loving. My friend Jalayne and I spent a few hours with them and we all had a blast. And they were so very appreciative, which was nice.
These were the two cards I helped them assemble. I wasn't sure what type of skill level we might encounter, so I pretty much made all the parts and pieces to the point where they could just peel off a sticker backing and add the pieces to the cards. They loved it. And what I loved was watching some of them create their own design. Creativity is for all ages!!!!
Was all the prep work time consuming? You bet it was. Was it worth it? A thousand times over! And we are going back next month by special request. I feel so blessed to have had this opportunity!
I'll see you again tomorrow for more Valentine fun!
Susie
