Wooden spoons and baskets made by Richard Lewis of Carno

from Llyfrgell Genedlaethol Cymru / The National Library of Wales

• Llyfrgell Genedlaethol Cymru / The National Library of Wales said:

  The traditional Welsh craft of basket weaving could have been an useful hobby to keep people occupied during blackouts. Richard Lewis of Carno demonstrated how he made these baskets, as well as wooden spoons and even potato-mashers by hand in January 1940.

Craftwork at Newtown Church School

from Llyfrgell Genedlaethol Cymru / The National Library of Wales

• Llyfrgell Genedlaethol Cymru / The National Library of Wales said:

  Children and young people had their own roles and duties alongside adults in the effort on the home front. They were often encouraged to help out with various activities. In this sewing class in a Newtown school in 1939, the girls are making covers for their gas masks. School children were constantly drilled in the care of their gasmasks and their proper use.
