VINTAGE MAP YOUR HOME, THE LATEST TREND…

Map

With vintage maps popping up in all the home magazines, I couldn’t help but have a go at using an old map to cover an old cork board to put on the wall in my new study.

I then decided to make sure it stayed in place by changing it to look more like a pin board using old string and pins.

There are so many things you can make out of old maps. Some of my favourite sites include http://www.notonthehighstreet.com which has a number of different types of gifts using old maps including Vintage map initials, from Bombus.

John Lewis has a fabulous World Map Cushion and a perfect Christmas gift for that time traveller has to be this antique-effect World Map Clock from Littlewoods.

You can even get world map wallpaper for that tiny space you want to cover. Great for a downstairs loo for something to look at while resting for a while :):)

I set up Crafted By B Studio after retiring from writing a blog for over 10 years on chronic pain. As a chronic pain sufferer myself I had always used art as a way to relax and take me away from my pain and stumbled upon paint by numbers by fluke. I was hooked from day one and went into custom paint by numbers as I progressed with my others. Over the past 3 years I have completed over 20 pieces and also made some of my own unique pieces. I am happy to help anyone who might like a custom picture made into a piece of beautiful art using this type of technology. I am also interested in lots of different types of crafts which I enjoy with my 4 grandchildren so my site will have lots of links and posts on mixed crafts and arts.
