Wrexham's Year of Wonder!

1876 is known as Wrexham's Year of Wonder - a year filled with historical firsts and significant events! To celebrate 150 years I decided to create a range of 1876 commemorative postcards, magnets, a tea towel and a tote bag.

There are 10 postcards and wooden magnets; seven depicting the big events of 1876, two featuring some popular local products from that year, and one featuring my very own Year of Wonder logo (which I'm very proud of!). The postcards also have interesting historical facts on the back about the event depicted on the card. The tea towel and tote bag both list all the year's events. 

I had a lot of fun researching all these and trying my best to make them look like Victorian posters and postcards. Wrexham's Year of Wonder was a fascinating year and if you'd like to learn more about it check out the links below:
