Crown Princess Mary has gotten crafty during her five-day business tour of Qatar.

After a glamorous evening at the Doha Museum of Islamic Art with Prince Frederik, the princess took some time to visit a local school and read with some of the younger students.

As she sat with the children on the floor, she was presented with a handmade sparkly, silver crown, which she immediately tied around her head, to the delight of the students.

The Australian-born royal was dressed up for the occasion, in a sleek black jumpsuit and long white tapered blazer.

Princess Mary was later photographed beaming as she held up a small book with a hand-drawn picture of herself in a white ball gown.

The crown was not the only item the royal received, as at one point she stood up to place a red and white flower wreath around her neck.

On Tuesday, the royal showed off her sporty side at the Aspire Academy in Qatar, where she kicked about a soccer ball while in heels with aplomb.

She then donned a sophisticated watercolour print skirt and conservative black top for a night at the Doha Museum of Islamic Art with Prince Frederik on Wednesday.  

While the 44-year-old looked chic and demure, covering up the majority of her skin, she still managed to inject a bit of her stylish personality into her outfit.
