Love using old maps for accents on gifts.
Hearts for Birthday presents, stars for a Thank you Gift or just a little flower showing the home town city on a Souvenir from home present.
Some Craft Paper, Stamping and Twine is needed too. 1, 2, 3 …Done. Easy Peasy :)
Have a gorgeous day

oh be still my heart….. awesome idea. I have some old maps from Germany (back from 1994) and had planned on incorporating them into some canvas art (as soon as I get time, sigh) I’m definitely holding some of the maps back for something like this. You know my favorite – the one that made my heart pitterpatter was the Gruesse aus der Heimat. Around Christmas I always – ALWAYS – get homesick.
Big hugs
