Happy Memorial Day!

And welcome to the Summer Social Season!

Economical Way to Make a Map Wall

I used this book to do the Map Table a couple months ago.

They have these books for every state and I think for countries as well. They only cost $17 each.

I framed up a few more maps to hang at our summer house, focusing on the beaches and Chesapeake Bay area of Virginia. You could event frame the entire state.

I Don't Really Like TV Trays

I grew up in a household where if you ate, you did it sitting at a table. My mother almost died when the boy next door came over one day for lunch and took his plate and plopped down in front of the TV.

My in-laws gave us these TV trays years ago. I've left them out in the rain, left glasses full of water sitting on them, and still they are in my summer house.

So I decided I'd fix them up a little bit with spray paint. I love spray paint!!!

And of course I couldn't paint them all the same color.

Plates into Wall Art

I found these great flip flop plates at TJ Maxx. I wanted to hang them on the guest bathroom wall at our summer house. So I cut a piece of duck cloth and added an eyelet to it. Then attached it to the plate with E6000.

So now I have an entire line of flip flops walking up the wall.

We're Back from the Magic Kingdom

I'm not loving reality right now, but I have gotten a few projects finished that I'll share with you this week.

Have a great week!
