My mother and sister made a trip to the UK last year and the absolute coolest souvenirs they brought back were a set of Christmas tree ornaments with Henry and his six wives. I'm not sure where exactly they were purchased, but I think it was a gift shop at either the Tower of London or Hampton Court.
Here's Henry: (he's sure no Jonathan Rhys-Meyers)
Catherine of Aragon:
Anne Boleyn:
Jane Seymour:
Anne of Cleves:
Catherine Howard:
Catherine Parr:
(In the course of googling to try to confirm which wife was which, I found that they are for sale as a set and individually. If you'd also like to have an English-themed Christmas tree, you can! The set seems to be different than the individual ones.)
Elizabeth I is mine! The 4% (redheads) have to stick together.
The overall effect:
Those are so cool! I'm totally jealous. Hope you had a Merry Christmas!
