Map Memories…

Today I’m going to share the easiest & cheapest (FREE for me) part of my gallery wall… yet full of meaning and memories!

If you have AAA (Automobile Association of America) and frames on hand, this would be a free project… the kind I love!

I went down to our local AAA office and picked up maps from the places the Hubster and I have vacationed together.

Then with frames varying in size, I figured out what area of the map I wanted to showcase.  I found that taking the glass from the frame and tracing around it was the easiest.  Then with a paper cutter or scissors cut it out.

The maps are from some of the places I included in my Vacation Burlap.

  4. Love this idea! We've collected antique reproduction maps of the islands we've visited, but now that we have kids, we have to do something else! I hope you stop by the Tuesday To Do party and share it!
