I received a badge maker in the post yesterday, and thankfully I'd ordered a refill pack at the same time, as I used up the 10 badges supplied pretty quick smart! Anyway, I've been buying old OS maps from my favourite charity shop with no real idea behind their purchase; I simply thought they were too lovely to leave behind...I gave one to my youngest son, who has decided it makes quite a good surface to drive toy cars on - there's roads marked on it, after all!
Anyway, when my badge maker arrived, I was hit by inspiration. My maps! I had this fabulous one of South Britain - and that fairly meant everywhere below the midlands. I worked out how to use the badge maker quite quickly, and set to work. Here's the result:
I'm quite chuffed about how well the turned out!
As usual, they're listed for sale on Folksy - here and here - they're in two separate lots, because I have 10, and I'm only able to list 5 in a batch. Postage is available to all parts of the world, and of course, all proceeds go to sending my daughter to the Jamboree next year!
