Summary
A Sainsbury’s picture making set. The set consists of one piece of A4 card, folded in the middle which is blank on one side (white) and has four rooms of a ('modern') house. Stuck onto the card, in the rooms, are stickers of household items or people. These have been taken off a separate sheet of card with one blank side (white) and one with outlines of the stickers shapes. All except one sticker have been stuck on the house board. The one (the bed) that is still stuck is in its original position. The set is contained within a transparent plastic wrapping. The bag has a hole cut out for hanging in a shop display. There is a backing card which on one side is 3/4 white with a yellow strip at the top. On this yellow strip is an illustration of a brown bear, alongside 'Sainsbury's Picture Making Set'. The reverse of the card is yellow with 'Sainsbury's Picture Making Set' at the top and details about the set printed below. Total number of items is 4.
