I bought a plain yellow chevron striped 6 x 6 photo album for a 95 year old client who has memory issues and is very frustrated because she can remember faces but not names. She doesn't even remember my name and I see her all the time. She knows me as the lobster lady because I pick her up lobster dinners at Bonefish once a week. I could be called worse things!
So I had this idea to take photos of everyone she comes in contact with and put their names with their pictures in this book for her to look at.
I decorated the front with lots of Prima goodies.
Here's a close-up. I even put her name on it.
Joan loves it and looks through it all the time! It really helps her know who everyone is!
Don't you just love that little wood postcard? I went through my stash and layered it all together.
Thanks for stopping by!
