SKELETONS were the recipients of make-overs as the Best Dressed Skeleton event went ahead.

At the Worcester City Art Gallery and Museum, children decorated and dressed up the pre-cut skeletons to bring them alive, before taking them home to keep.

Angie Bishop, manager of Worcester City Art Gallery and Museum, said: "It went really well, and everybody had a lot of fun dressing up their skeletons with a range of materials we provided.

"The event was fully booked, and the skeletons all looked great. They've all gone to good homes after their make-overs."
