Bet you didn’t guess that this project was mine! Well, I got 2nd place on SYTYC for “Around the World” week with my Sheet Music Globe!
When I saw the theme for this week, I knew I needed to makeover this old globe. I got it at a garage sale for a dollar a few months ago, and my husband thought I had finally lost it! I had no idea what I was going to do with the thing until we got this old piano. A piano calls for sheet music art, of course, so the sheet music globe was born. I don’t know where the previous owners were keeping this thing, but it was filthy! Neon and dust and dirt! OH MY! Doesn’t it look a million times better? (And yes, for some reason I had an urge to draw a happy face in the dust.)

This is beautiful! Your tutorial is really easy to follow. Using the dots to keep it all lined up was a really great idea.

Lindsey says
Wow! That looks like a lot of work, but what a beautiful end product. I don’t know if I’d have the patience to finish it, but I think I will pick up a globe if I see it at a yard sale this year! Very cool. My brother is really into music, so I bet he would appreciate this. Visiting from Ginger’s Link up!

I love this project. I collect globes. My house is saturated in them and over the years i have gotten a few that are of no value. I may try this on one of those. It would definitely be a unique addition.
thanks for sharing.
