    Make coasters out of charm pack squares - either charm packs or your own cut 5 inch squares. These make up fast and are real nice in 4 coaster sets. It takes 5 squares for each coaster. If you need instructions, pm me.

    That little triangle thread catcher (the tutorial was just on here not too long ago) would hold their favorite dobber or treats.

    How about cute door hangings. At my mother's nursing home, they all loved to decorate their doors for the holidays.
