pimp my sunbubudiu!

…so what do you do in between the games?

Ok, I was a bit borred and thought about a small modification I wanted to do with this awful sunbubudiu (sunscreen?). After all, Germany’s Gerolsteiner Brunnen GmbH & Co. KG never paid me for this free advertisment on my car so something needed to be done about it. I *urgently* needed to pimp my sunbubudiu! :-)
My alternative choices included the following Kangas, Kikois:

“WATU KWA AMANI”….ehhrr…well, a bit too big + strange, ama?

Well…I am crazy, yes, but not THAT crazy… LOL…. :-)

Perfect! A blue Kikoy from Kenya I received some years ago from Christine (5Z4LL).
I just love this colour! There are indeed so many purposes for a Kikoi and the next thing I’ll do with this material is to refurbish the interior of an old ’88 Suzuki Samurai…can’t wait for that, argh! (you hear me, Mbuzimoja?)

Glue glue glue….

Finished! :-)

  1. I know you got that Kanu Kanga for free, ama ? Do you also have an umbrella too (those things were ugly ,yikes with some jogoo and the green color which I think was green for Kericho Tea and that fimbo ya nyayo ….no words. What was that Fimbo ya Nyayo made of , Ivory?

    Nice job, very creative! If you lived close to me I would have ask for favor for a custom made sun shade with a kikoy I have since sina pesa and it is really get steamy hot ovaaa here!
