Create Your Own Christmas Tin

Join us this festive season and have a go at making your very own Princess Mary gift tin at our creative workshop.

In 1914, soldiers fighting in the First World War received a very special Christmas present from Princess Mary, the teenage daughter of King George V. Over 350,000 beautiful brass boxes, filled with a variety of goodies, were delivered to the front lines in time for Christmas Day.

Come and have a go at making and decorating your own Christmas tin. What goodies will you put in yours?
