Earlier this year, we asked readers to create their own amazing Egyptian amulets in celebration of the Making Egypt exhibition at the V&A.

We received hundreds of wonderful, creative entries and our judges at the V&A had a tough time picking the winners. Thank you for sending in all your brilliant entries. So, without further ado…

Congratulations to our below winners!
