Wisconsin Pinboard

My Easter trip to Wisconsin was accompanied by a travel log which is bursting with what we did (mainly food, beer and friends!)

However I wanted something to have on display to remind me of the fun (and since a digital photo frame isn’t quite within my budget yet) I went old school with a pin board.

We’d kept bottle caps from the beer and soda we drank (from Wisconsin based breweries mainly Horny Goat, New Glarus and Sprecher) and I glued these onto drawing pins so I could use them to decorate the board.

I colour copied some of the items from our trip since the originals are in the travel journal (or in Tom’s case a large bag and unsorted).  We kept a bunch of things mainly tickets, maps, food labels and similar – just stuff you can’t get at home.

I also marked on the map places we’d been or where things were from – i.e. Door County cherries which we never went to see but do feature in Sprecher’s Ravin’ Red.
