Hometown Love

CraftsJun 6Comments: 18

I was born on Long Island, New York.  When people ask me where I’m from I do say North Carolina however.  I have lived here over half my life and love it!!!  Jarret is from Cleveland, Ohio.  He does claim Cleveland as where he is from, but even he admits that North Carolina is our new Hometown.  I thought this would be a cute idea to combine our hometowns and use up some paper scraps at the same time. :)

What you’ll need:  paper scraps, glue stick, scissor, picture frame

To make the shapes of the states I just googled some images of each state and traced and cut them our of different color papers.

When every piece was cut out I glued them on my main piece of paper.

And once you put the paper in the frame…. Ta Da!!!  That simple and quick!

    Oh gosh! This is so cool. I am definitely pinning this and might have to actually force myself to get crafty at some point–perfect anniversary idea!

    This is so cute! I love it! My husband is from Colorado and I’m from North Carolina and now we live in CO and both love it. This would be a cute addition to our decor! Thanks for sharing.

    Sabrina,

    This is a really cute idea. My husband and I are from different states, and we have moved around since being married, and I was recently contemplating how to represent that on a piece of art to hang on our gallery wall. This is a fun representation.

    I followed you over from the Handy Man, Crafy Woman linky party. I would love if you stopped by my blog.

    Thanks for sharing,
    Laura
