Who says summer has to end? At Lavender Court, residents decided they weren’t quite ready to say goodbye to the sunshine just yet, enjoying a wonderfully colourful arts and crafts session celebrating all things floral!
Armed with outlined trees and plenty of colourful paper flowers, residents set about creating their own beautiful blooming masterpieces. Rather than decorating their trees with falling autumn leaves, the group decided to keep summer alive with branches bursting into flower!
Each creation was wonderfully unique. Some residents embraced every colour they could find, while others carefully coordinated their flowers to create their own lovely designs. The finished trees were all beautifully different, reflecting each resident’s individual creativity and personality.
The activity also provided a relaxing opportunity to enjoy conversation, practise fine motor skills and express creativity through colour and design. As one resident perfectly summed up the afternoon, “I found that really therapeutic.”
A lovely afternoon filled with creativity, choice and plenty of colour at Lavender Court. Autumn can wait just a little longer!
