Is Royal wedding making you squeamish? Buy a souvenir sick bag!
February 18th, 2011 - 2:44 pm ICT by ANILondon, Feb 18 (ANI): As the Royal Wedding day approaches closer, various kinds of memorabilia are being flouted here and there, but this one surely takes the cake.
Graphic designer Lydia Leith has screen-printed souvenir ‘Throne Up’ sick bags that are selling for just 3 pounds.
Each bag has an illustration of William and Kate in the outfits they wore when they announced their engagement to the press.
Under the picture is a warning that reads, “Keep this handy on April 29th 2011,” reports the Daily Mail.
“The bags are just a bit of fun, a sort of antidote to the hysteria surrounding the wedding — I’m not an anti-monarchist in the slightest!
“It started out as a joke around the dinner table and I made them expecting to sell a handful to friends and family but it seems there is a much greater demand,” she added.
Lydia added, “I’m a fan of Royal memorabilia myself and I just thought it would be a lighthearted addition to what’s available to commemorate the day.” (ANI)
