Nottingham care home Residents paint beautiful flowersResidents at HC One’s Barnby Court have had a creative afternoon painting some real life flowers.

One of the Nottingham care homes Residents, Marjorie, celebrated her birthday today and had some lovely flowers sent to her. Marjorie exclaimed “oh wow, beautiful flowers” when she received them. 

The flowers sent were pink lilies and they created such a talking point with the Residents that four of them said they would love to try painting them. 

The flowers not only sparked ideas of painting, but also got the Residents discussing about past birthdays and mother’s day when they would receive beautiful flowers like these. 

They enjoyed cups of tea and cakes whilst painting and produced some fabulous pictures, overall it was a really lovely day. 

The home manager, Mags, said “I’m going to get frames for these paintings as they are fantastic, love them, they will look great in your rooms.”
