To combat the jitteriness you’re undoubtedly experiencing, take all those discarded maps of your favorite vacation spots and make something beautiful out of them! Since you’re stuck inside your apartment home and likely looking for a DIY project to busy your hands and mind, try your hand at this particular one for map coasters. Once they are completed, you’ll be reminded of all of your very favorite and special destinations every time that you reach for one.
