Poppy Factory Visit

The Queen visited the Royal British Legion Poppy Factory in Richmond, Surrey to celebrate its 90th anniversary. The factory makes poppies and wreaths for Remembrance Day and employs a number of wounded ex-service personnel.

While at the factory, Her Maj pitched in and helped make a poppy. I love a little royal arts and crafts time. (I also love a little royal amethyst, but I probably don't need to tell you that every time.)
