Day 137-Melways map makeover

Tonight I sat down at the dining table with an old melways map book, some scissors and a glass of red wine...and this happened...

i cut some circles
pinned a hole thru the centre
 joined the layers in the centre with a few hand sewn stitches and glued the paper flower to a plastic rose stem

 ((To Miss Elisha, yes I am using the pot plant you gave me to stick this in (I was trying very hard to keep the money plant alive that you gave me...but the possum got to it!!!) you will have to give me another cutting)) but for now i think i can manage to keep this plant alive...
craft out
xxoo

This looks great! What a clever way of reusing old street maps. I think they'd look pretty in a vase too. :)
