Celebrate Spooky Season with us by designing your own mourning jewelry using our custom pinback button-maker! While mourning jewelry has existed for centuries, it gained popularity in the 1800s when Queen Victoria’s Prince Albert died. There were strict rules for mourning a loved one, with each stage having its own dress and etiquette guidelines. Broaches with your deceased loved one’s hair was incredibly popular as well.

Whether you are mourning a recent loss of a loved one, a pet, your favorite poet or movie star, or simply want to make macabre Memento Mori pins, join us!

Hands on History is a FREE program series held each first and third Saturday of the month at King Manor from 1-4pm.
