Kenya Journalling

Marking our return to Kenya, for a most wonderful Easter holiday,

I made these journals for my daughter and her friend. 

I made the covers white as I wanted them to get dirty and grubby, covered in finger prints and the nitty gritty.  So we could bring back a little bit of actual Kenya together with our memories and photos.
