National Button Day proved to be the perfect opportunity for our residents at Fairmile Grange to get into the festive spirit! Residents spent a wonderful afternoon creating beautiful Christmas cards, using brightly coloured buttons to add a unique, cheerful, and textured design for their families and friends.
Crafting to the Classics
The atmosphere was both relaxing and fun, with the creativity flowing. The afternoon took a refined turn when the lovely resident Joan suggested that everyone might enjoy a little classical accompaniment while crafting. Tchaikovsky's The Nutcracker proved to be the perfect choice, filling the room with magical music that enhanced the festive creative mood.
A Nod to Nostalgia
Did you know the National Button Society was founded in 1938? We enjoyed reminiscing about the history of buttons during our session. We wonder: Do you remember your mother or grandmother keeping a button tin? Maybe you still have one of your own—these simple items often hold wonderful memories!
