Birthday Cards for Redwoods' Friends

There are three birthdays this week up on the 3rd floor
 of my building at The Redwoods. 

I have started to make "name plates"/ Birthday Cards
for my friends and neighbors.
So far, every one I have made them for has
enjoyed putting them up on their apartment door.


Our doors are pretty basic, so this adds a touch of color.

Besides the name, I have included a few simple 
images to match some of the interests of my friends.

Hector orders all the films for The Redwoods.
He also organizes outings to local restaurants.
 Hector is a master knitter in his spare time. 


 Maryann is a retired librarian.
Her apartment is filled with her books. 
If you are not familiar with the Dewey Decimal system,
#817 is Humor. Maryann has a wonderful sense of humor.
She is also a fabulous knitter of very intricate patterns.


Holly really loves the out doors
 and one can see her on the trails around our campus. 
She loves being in nature and can out walk
most folks around here!
