WHEATLAND – The Services for Seniors Activities Center in Wheatland was busy earlier this month making handmade Christmas ornaments for their tree at the Library, for the tour of trees displayed at the Platte County Library.
“Our seniors have been plum creative and having fellowship together while making handmade creative Christmas ornaments to decorate their own Christmas tree at the Library for the tour of trees,” activities director Carrie Kafka said.
Some ornaments were log cabins made out of pretzels and recycled milk containers with decorative rocks added to make a chimney. Pinecones were used to make miniature owls with seashells for eyes, real bird feathers for their wings, and a clove for the nose. Whimsical trees, angels, and flowers ornaments were created out of sticks and flower pods. The multitude of decorations didn’t cost much more than a bit of imagination and hot glue.
