I was tidying up some older blog post from the archives the other day and was looking at our Wall of Wisdom fun quote based art idea. I realised that I’d never shared here on the blog how to make this easy Quote Art with Maps that is included on our wall. This idea was originally published as a guest post over at The Pinning Mama many years ago so it’s high time I shared it here.

All you need to make your own Quote Map Art is:

• An old road map book

• A picture frame – mine is a Nyttja one from IKEA

• Low tack masking tape (decorators tape)

• A computer, printer and scrap paper

Search your car, garage, attic or under stair cupboard for an old road map books, or you might be able to pick one up at a charity or thrift shop. If you have no luck in any of those places you could go online and print a suitable map. My blogging friend Claire has some beautiful printable maps over at Picture Box Blue.

First pull the page from your map book that is special to you. I used the page of where we live.

Take the glass out of the picture frame and use it as a guide to cut the map page to size.
