Day One Hundred Forty Eight: Map Wrap

On Thursday, we celebrated a friend's birthday with dinner on the town.  I bought a super-cute gift for the birthday girl, but needed a gift wrap idea as clever as she is.  Martha's idea of using Recycled Gift Wrap was perfect.  I happened to have a box of maps (who uses paper maps anymore?) saved from several trips to Europe.  As a nod to the Olympics, I used a map of London:

(That's Kensington Gardens right in the middle)

...and wrapped the whole thing up with some coordinating ribbon...

The result was super cute, even if I did have to cut through some of my favorite neighborhoods.
