the artful map

Maps as art I am loving!

1. Because it looks good
2. Is a great DIY
3. Is CHEAP!

What a perfect decorating idea! The whole black and white thing looks fab!





Just like this pic from my previous blog! Still loving it!!




Would also work great with a brown timber frame and an old map for an antique feel. You don't even have to frame it!




Or an old-school feel - a bit retro



Or for a purpose... as curtains!!


Or the nifty wall decal!! So much choice!!!!



 
Or you could take it all the way... and wallpaper the whole room with vintage maps!

  1. Hey there,

    Looking at the picture from the map that has been broken down into many blocks, you may be interested in this website.

    Basically what it does, is take a picture, and enlarge it so you can do the block effect (or many, many other things) - a very good DIY project.

    Look at the gallery, some of them are absolutely beautiful, some are not :-)
