Map Quest


What can you do with all of those old maps in and around the garage, car pockets, glove box, car kit, "car trips" box, and junk drawer, among other places (I've even seen maps housed in the bathroom cabinet!)

I love to use maps as gift wrap. It's a wonderful way to stimulate the yearn for travel for graduates. Great gift for when you hop a plane out of the country and have unique gifts for friends and hosts.

Planter pots.

Candle wrap.

Origami figures (which can be used for ornaments as well.)

Cut pieces into rectagles and string together to make Peace flags.

Jewelry - I've seen some darned cute bracelets and earrings!

School Book cover.

Paper wallet.

Covers for lamp shades.

Refinish a table top with lacquered map.

Cover a shoe box to store pictures.

Other ideas, my friends??

Comment and let me know your favorite map wrap!
