You are a winner


 My friends son had his school sports day and excelled as he won more challenges than anyone else. He was handed the trophy and allowed to have a photo taken but the minute was fleeting and he came home with nothing but a memory and a photo sent to his mum's phone ( she is a teacher in another school and couldn't be there). He was so disappointed that he had nothing to show his mum or anyone else that represented his win. I found the design for this trophy box on silhouette design studio and decided he deserved  atrophy of his own. I tied ribbons in the 4 house colours to the cup and filled it with some of his favourite treats. He was thrilled when I gave him the trophy and couldn't believe it had all the house colours on the handles,he didn't even realise it had treats inside until his mum said he took it to bed and laid it on his pillow and realised it had a lid. The cup slept in bed with him for months even when it had been squashed and rolled on so I think he might have liked having his own trophy just a little bit.
