Dandelion Gifts has the best dressed Christmas window in Frodsham!

Here, Christmas in Frodsham's Naomi Anstice tells us about the tricky task of choosing a winner from such an impressive array of entries!

This weekend saw the judging of Christmas in Frodsham's annual Best Dressed Window Competition.

As we have no Junior Mayors this year, the judging was done by a team. We had a dozen judges which included the town mayor Councillor Caroline Ashton, members of our teenage elf group of volunteers, and a couple of committee members.

Each submitted their first, second and third choices. It was very close between four shops so this year we awarded three Highly Commended certificates.

These went to Flowers by Jenny Penny for bringing the sparkle, The Cottage Tea Room for making us all laugh with their upside down display and Handknitted with Love for all their beautifully hand made decorations.

The overall winner for 2020 was Dandelion with their beautifully crafted, themed window.

A new tradition was started with the awarding of a trophy, upon which the winning shop's name will be engraved for the next few years.

Awards were given out during the afternoon by Father Christmas and some of our Elves, who caused quite a stir amongst local shoppers!

Many thanks to all shops and businesses who have decorated and taken part.
