holiday weekend crafternoons!

i've have always wanted an old, vintage school map. unfortch, anytime i've come across them, they haven't been cheap. 

miraculously, a few weeks ago, i found one on the street outside my church! it was partially water damaged on its right side - sorry, japan & australia.

but, a little field trip to ikea and some cutting and i have new artwork for over my sofa. (please pardon the cluttered coffee table and collection of plastic bags next to the couch.)
