Blackburn Exchange Christmas Tree Winners

Schools within the authority were invited to participate in a Christmas Tree Through the Decades Festival. Tockholes decided to go with the 1920's. The 1920s was thought of as a very lively, exuberant time with nightclubs, jazz clubs and cocktail bars flourishing in the cities and of course the flapper girls.

Certainly, for the upper and middle classes, these were exciting days! The decade started with a boom of prosperity. The mood was buoyant. The manufacturers and suppliers of goods needed for the war effort had prospered. Rationing had mostly ended in 1919.

However, the spirit of Christmas endured, and it was a time to get together with families and celebrate! There was no lengthy build up to the festive season like today and decorations, including the tree, weren’t put up until Christmas Eve! Art Deco style was coming in too, displayed in window frames and on our pottery. For these reasons for our tree we decided to celebrate the “flapper girls”, “1920’s vehicles”, “popcorn garlands” and “art deco windows”! We hope our tree is easily recognisable as being from the 1920’s and we all thoroughly enjoyed what we have created.
