I actually have a set of this planned with letters stenciled onto it for the boys' room but I can't find my letter stencil so you'll have to enjoy the second set.
At the moment I have just pinned it above our bed, temporarily.
The maps are from the 1950s and 1960s and I could only bring myself to cut them up because they were deteriorating.
I have got a gorgeous pile of ones in pristine condition dating to the 1930s - mainly from national geographic magazines that I picked up for about $1. The Atlas and I will have to decide what to do with these ones.
More creative people here.
good work they look good :)

DeleteBrilliant idea! They look amazing. (And I think I might just have just come up with another idea that is map related...)
ReplyDeleteHappy creating! :)
oh exciting - I'd like to hear about it!
DeleteI love old maps - this is such a good use for them and so 'you' :)
ReplyDeleteI know I'm turning into a geography geek by association - I blame The Atlas!
DeleteThat looks fabulous! I can see how you would be anxious about chopping up something so old- but whats the use of having them sitting in a draw right?
