Cath Kidston Royal crafts wedding

Royal Wedding souvenirs

I don’t know what’s come over me but I can’t stop hunting out souvenirs of the forthcoming Royal wedding. I blame my grandmother who was a fervent fan of the Royal family and kept scrapbooks of Princess Di!

Royal Wedding souvenirs

I’ve picked up some great souvenirs including a Royal Wedding keyring from Cath Kidston:


I was fortunate to win a limited edition ‘I do’ tea towel by Maria Holmer Dahlgren:

I purchased some fabric called Royal Wedding in John Lewis. I’m debating what to make with it as the washing instructions say handwash only.

On a recent trip to my local Sainsbury’s I picked up a limited edition biscuit tin from McVitie’s. Needless to say the biscuits didn’t last long but I’m hoping the tin will have some longevity.

Finally, I have a couple of postcards to add to my collection and some flags which I will be waving when I watch the wedding in a couple of weeks (in the comfort of my own home).
