The idea is to cut out a map heart of the place you met, where you married and where you live. I picked up this old school map from J&J Junk on my last visit, and printed out the silhouette of a heart.
The tricky thing was we met in London, so a road map of US, Canada and Mexico wasn't exactly going to reach that far. I decided to get creative and used London Ontario instead. Perfect!
I rummaged around my frame stash and found an old Aris frame I bought from Michaels when they were on clearance. They are exactly like the Ikea Ribba frames but about a quarter of the price. I must have bought about 20 of those frames, so annoying they don't stock them anymore.
The only thing was there were 4 spaces instead of the 3 I needed. I decided to cut out a red heart to fill in the extra space.
Here it is up on the wall just inside the front door.
