Dickensian Day, Lymm – 8 December, 2012

Face painting at the Dickensian Christmas Festival.
Left-over cones were donated to the Red Cross for sale.

Lymm’s Dickensian Christmas Festival is a highlight of the year in the village.

SI Warrington took a stall this year to fundraise for our president’s charity, with handcrafted gifts, decorations, face-painting and a luxury hamper raffle.

One member collected five crates of conifer cones which were then sprayed silver and bagged up with cinammon sticks and dried citrus slices to make Christmas decorations ready to be tipped into a bowl for a lovely fragrant display. Members also made tiny teddy-bear stocking fillers, festive headbands, mug warmers, decorative snowmen and more.

After the festival the leftover bags of cones were donated to Knutsford’s Red Cross shop for sale.
