Kensington Palace Interactive Story

I hope everyone is having a good 4th of July. I just wanted to give a little insight on what Kensington Palace has for their current interactive story. They have set it up to tell the stories of the seven princesses that once lived in the palace (Princess Dianna, Princess Margaret, Princess Victoria, Princess Anne, Princess Mary, Princess Caroline, and Princess Charlotte). The palace's current interior looks like a kids arts and craft project exploded everywhere. This was all done to create an interactive story, but I personally felt they didn't really get the stories across as well as I believe they could have. The Historic Royal Palaces (HRP) is in charge of maintaining Kensington Palace as well as several other palaces and the Tower of London. HRP refer to Kensington being a place of hidden stories. They describe their new experience as..."At the heart of the Enchanted Palace journey is a quest for the seven princesses who once lived here. Their lives have been re-imagined as installations offering a fascinating interpretation of the palace’s hidden stories. The rebellious princess who ran from an arranged marriage into the arms of love. Sad queens who bore the pain and sadness of lost babies. The young heir to the throne who escaped the controlling grasp of her overprotective mother." I'm planning to have my collage posted tomorrow. I want to have all my project ideas finalized early next week, so I can start putting everything together.

Do you have any pictures to upload so I can get a better understanding of the what this"explosion of arts and crafts" looked like. I like their idea anyways at least they are trying to bring some fun and interaction combined with history.
