    Why don’t you try some small ceramics, like cups, or bowls? How about figurines? These things don’t cost all that much when you buy in greenware, or even bisque. You can get glazes at the same ceramics shop you buy the figures at.

    How about making jewelry? You can get some really beautiful beads, along with string and findings at a local craft store. The beads come in all different sizes and designs so everyone can show off their creativity.

    I also taught a crochet class at a resident home. A lot of the women, and men, already knew how to crochet. Some just needed a refresher course. I no longer teach there but heard that some of them are now donating their work to other residents and hospitals.
