Map it out

One of my birthday presents from Chris was this awesome Film city map by Dorothy - so the layout of the city is based roughly on an LA street map but EVERYTHING is derived from films - the streets, the parks, the lakes, the pubs, the schools, even the airport (aptly names AIRPLANE! of course).



The pictures are from their website cos I've not got mine in a frame yet...

 I particularly love the street named Diagon Alley, which is flanked either side by the Deathly Hallows, the Chamber of Secrets and a very reputable school named Hogwarts. 

Let's all go take a Walk On The Wild Side to The Cabin In The Woods...


The movie map is just £25 for a 60x80 print (so it fits inside many Ikea frames!) and they do other ones too like a song title map. Too many maps, not enough walls...





I love stuff like this, they become real conversation pieces in the house (my Famille Summerbelle papercutting London Map has already started up several conversations about its inspiration Rob Ryan)





P.S. If you like any of the purchases you see on the blog don't forget to check the Shopping List pages on the right - chances are it'll be there. If not drop me a comment on here and I can tell you where I bought it. 
I've also added a Wish List page. That's gonna be a long one...
