One of the easiest and best things we did when we decorated our cottage in PEI, was to frame a few maps of both the Provence and the city of Charlottetown.

It quickly created a couple of decorative vignette’s, but not only that, practical ones that can be used by ourselves and visitors to plan day trips and become more familiar with the island.

Local maps are an easy way to decorate your home - seasonal or otherwise. We have a huge school map of Ontario hanging on the large stairwell wall in our home and often look to it to find places we’re discussing.

They are a great way to anchor a vignette:

Or decorate a large blank wall. Especially when you can get up close to examine them.

Here’s a more decorative idea. Wallpapering in maps. New ones are very affordable…

This summer, get your directions right and hang a local map at the cottage. You’ll be on the road to success!
