Maps...

My dad collected old antique maps of the Netherlands,
which is where he was from.
They now happily sit on my fireplace mantel and
travel through out the house depending on my mood.
They tell a story all on their own...
and if you have a hankering to roam the world but
just don't have the time or money to do so you can
get lost in a map and make up a story of dream traveling.

I've always loved maps. My aunt and uncle had a cabin in the 60's and their bathroom was wallpapered in maps. So Cool!

Loving it. Your map ideas are so cool. I'll never think that maps can be used that way.
