I've always enjoyed maps. When we drove across the country for a move when I was 17, I highlighted our path across the USA and hung it on my wall. I like seeing where I have been. So when I saw a blog post here about this "Newlywed Map" thing, it was right up my alley.
Obviously, you don't have to be newly married, married, or even in a relationship to do this for yourself. It was a really fun project. Heather over at Heather Drive did a great post on what all she bought for it and how much it cost her here. The only things I did different were that I bought two additional colors of map tacks so Mr. Diva and I could mark places we have been individually; and I used a coupon at JoAnns instead of Michaels. The frame was the same amount though.
Here are pictures of my finished product:
As you can see, the Mister and I have a LOT of traveling to do. I look forward to adding more tacks onto the map.
Have fun starting your own!
