St Winifreds Care Home residents get creative for Nellsar Crafty Crown Competition

As part of the coronation celebrations at St Winifreds Care Home, we entered a Nellsar-wide competition to design and make an eye-catching coronation crown.

Heading up the competition, Nellsar’s Recreation and Well-Being Manager Viv Stead commented: “The idea was to involve our residents in making something beautiful and memorable to display in their Home or garden that could be enjoyed by everyone for the coronation.”

As you can see, our residents decided they wanted to make several different types of crowns – big and small! We made some that we could wear over the weekend and also created some small ones that could be used as table decorations; one family member thought they would work well as covers for cupcakes!

Although we weren’t crowned amongst the winners, we had so much fun creating our wonderful crowns which made a great centrepiece for our coronation celebrations.

The judges commented: ‘An abundance of crafty ideas at St Winifreds. Their residents wanted to make both big and small crowns, so they made crowns to wear and crowns to decorate their tables for the big day. Plus one super duper big one – all patriotically displayed with a London backdrop.’

Congratulations again to everyone at St Winifreds involved in creating our fantastic entry for the competition.

Check out the winning entries and all the runners up!
