Cornucopias

Without the employees, there would be no retirement community. The relationships between employees and the residents can be many things, but in the one I work at it it feels like we are all family.

I thought the residents might like to make something to show the employees how thankful they are for them. It needed to be something sweet, cute, and labor-intensive to show how much love is present.

It took about two hours but we made cornucopia treats and they turned out just how I had hoped. We bent the edges of sugar ice cream cones and filled them with m&m's, reese's, candy corn, and skittles. Then we sealed them with plastic wrap and tied them off with ribbon. There were plenty to give out and I hope they convey the gratitude the residents feel for the people who take such good care of them.
