These little guys are back! These rustic journals are made with great skill. The paper is 100% handmade using traditional methods that have been passed down from generations in Uganda.  The leather is cow-hide that has been naturally tanned and minimally processed, giving it a very soft and natural feel. It wraps to close. It’s the perfect size the grab and go!

dimension: 6 x 4 inches
