Map it Out
Posted by Brittney | Filed under Craftiness, Decorating
I was on another kick to find a way to add some fun, inexpensive art to our new home. My brother dutifully delivered an Iowa road map to me on his vacation to visit us.
I simply rolled it out, used the mat as a guide and cut it out. Wha-lah!
In only 10 minutes I had a easy DIY piece of art with extra sentimental value for us. All together now, awww.
Eventually, we’ll be adding it to a collage of photos and artwork on the other side of the room.

I used to have three maps of the cities I’ve lived in framed in the same Ikea frames, maybe a bit bigger. Great cheap artwork courtesy of AAA.

I LOVE this idea! I’m totally going to make one and put it in our apartment. I wonder if I can get Traer, Des Moines, and Fort Dodge all in one frame….?
