I’ve just been given a great tour of the British Optical Association Museum tour by Neil Handley, learning more about the history of optometry as we went around. It was interesting to learn so much about the history of our eyes. #Museums #Optometry #LondonMuseums

A black and white photograph of the courtyard at the Victoria and Albert Museum. The image captures an ornate red brick building with intricate architectural details, including arched windows and decorative stonework. In the foreground, a fountain sits in the middle of the open space, surrounded by a paved courtyard. The contrast between the dark tones of the brick and the lighter shades of the sky and stone features highlights the building’s historical elegance.

“A museum is a place where one should lose one’s head.”
– Renzo Piano

A table covered in the makings of colourful pomanders - squares of material, pots of herbs, wool and buttons.

A group of completed heart pomanders.

A close up of a little girl holding up her pink and white heart pomander.

Two pairs of hands holding up a long colourful string with heart pomanders hanging from it.

For 100s of years people believed that breathing in nasty whiffs could make you ill - a particular problem in overcrowded cities!

Thank you to all our talented stitchers at today’s #familyworkshop, who took home a collection of their colourful pomanders.
