    great idea! Great way to reuse since who actually uses a paper map anymore?!?

    Here from NFF, have a happy friday!

    Really cute!!! :)

    And Jenn – I still use a paper map! LOL Well, only sometimes. I actually do own a GPS. But locally sometimes it’s still easier. ;)

    I LOVE this. I made some kinda similar for my wedding :o) Using the map is just ingenious.

    The maps are a great idea! They bring a great color to the garland. I did this same thing with sheet music at my wedding!

    I like it! The abstract designs are really cool along with the more “mappy” areas. Very nice!

    This is crazy cute! I am loving it, I just added a map to our dining room (thanks to Heather’s rockin’ dining room) and I love it. This is soo cool, thinking I may have to do this with some old books, but first I have to overcome the fear of my sewing machine! Visiting from Blessed Little Nest.
