I work in an assisted living facility. I need a craft idea for St Patrick's day. It needs to be useful, maybe a decoration, and not too difficult. The residents don't want to do anything that looks like a kid would make. Any Ideas?
Hi Lori,
We've got some more ideas on a pinterest board here:

The little ribbon shamrocks and ribbon wreath look like nice and easy activities. Also the hanging shamrock garlands.
Hope this helps!
Thanks for the ideas. I am trying to find some easy not so kid like crafts. This is awesome.
Thank you.

You could make door wreaths with fabrics! They enjoy making the wreaths because they can reuse them every year!

If that is too hard then what I do is have the presidents collar in a mandala in green or any color really and cut it in the shape of a shamrock

Hi Sara
This is a great idea
Thank you
Wow Sara what a great bulletin board
You are very creative and an inspiration to us
I think making little shamrocks and stringing them together is a good idea, also having an irish themed quiz, and attempting the irish jig!
