Halloween SCUT files
Today I took my 2 oldest to the nursing home. They are instantly bored when there is a day off from school so what could be better than helping great grandma and her friend build a Halloween basket. My grandmother is 91 and her friend is near that age. She keeps the staff at the nursing home hopping with ideas. Today I brought in several images cut from the cricut. They were tickled to use the xyron to turn the images into stickers. This is a great tool for me and them. No glue needed, even the little parts get sticky. It makes placing pieces easier then using a glue pen or a adhesive roller. They got the biggest buzz about that machine putting the glue on. The kids hot glued the images to skewers and added the candy. The ladies did the arranging.
I wasn’t sure how much they could do so we played it by ear. The next time I go we will make multiple baskets and add embellishments because they had a terrific time and so did we. If you have a nursing home in your neighborhood I can guarantee they would enjoy doing crafts with you. You will meet some very interesting people and will leave with a warm heart.

What a wonderful idea! I’m sure our local nursing home residents would love it too!
What a great idea. You are a generous lady. My Mother was in a home before she passed, but unfortunatley she had Alzhimers, so she was unable to do much. I know the elderly really enjoy any time you can spend with them, Thank You for your generousity, in behal of them. gloria
That is so sweet of you and teaching your kids such a great lesson. Thank you so much for sharing with us!!
How sweet of you and I am sure your grandmother and her friend had such a fun day with you and your children.
Having worked in a nursing home I know how special people like you are and they love doing crafts.
Big Hugs to you and your children! God will bless you!
Thanks for sharing the file, too.
That is a wonderful lesson for the children. You are training them right now to be great servers or volunteers
When I right-click on the links for you scut, I get a shortcut menu that does not have the option Save or Save as Target. The closest is Save Link as . . . or Copy Link Location. Does anyone know how I am able to save this to the hard drive? Thanks, Kay, Garfield, MN
