Handmade books : Brenda's diaries
A few months ago I spoke about my new photography project involving a set of diaries I bought at a car boot. The photos below are mock up books I've been making using scans from the diaries.

Brenda's diaries: New Photography project!
I'm excited to be working on a new photography project! I recently bought 19 old diaries from a car boot sale. They start at 1925 when the author is just 14 and finish in 1958. I have been typing out sections of the diaries, on my Imperial typewriter.
A short extract from Saturday 2nd October 1948
"Just come to bed straight in soon after 10. Washed stockings, set hair etc. Now 10:45 but determined to try to get my diary going again. Know that I shall regret not having lovely times in writing."
