'I want you now to help me send a Christmas present from the whole of the nation to every sailor afloat and every soldier at the front.' - Princess Mary, October 1914.
As a result of setting up this special fund, the first Christmas of the First World War was marked by over 355,000 Princess Mary's Gift Boxes being sent to forces serving abroad.
Take part in this Christmas art activity inspired by these special Christmas gifts.
