The Story behind the Art:
'Hello! My name is Yooprai Kaewtui. I have loved handicrafts ever since I was young. I was born and raised in a village in Thailand where most of the people make saa (mulberry) paper, as well as many other hand-crafted items. The art of working with saa paper has characterized our village culture, and has been carefully handed down through generations. I'm proud to help continue this beautiful legacy. Being able to have my own work and being able to support myself and my family is great. Moreover, my work is also helping other families in my village to earn a better income.'
The handcrafted nature of this product will produce minor differences in design and sizing. Subtle variations will occur from piece to piece, adding to its unique qualities. Measurements may vary slightly.

More details
This is an exceptionally well-crafted and beautiful set - the pictures don't completely do it justice. I bought these as a gift for my daughter's teacher. These journals are just stunningly beautiful and the texture of the papers and binding are incredible to look at as well as touch. The set includes two handcrafted "twig" pencils. These are hand-crafted in Thailand and ours came wrapped in another sheet of hand-crafted paper (be careful when taking out of the shipping package so the overwrap doesn't tear - you'll want to use that as well).
These can be used as a journal or even a photo/scrap album. The colors are rich and vibrant. I found myself wishing I had bought another one to keep for myself! Highly recommend!
