Canadian Flag Made out of License Plates



This flag of Canada is made using assorted red and white license plates from each of the 10 provinces and three territories of our Northern neighbors.

Painstakingly assembled using over 80 license plates from places as far flung as Yukon Territory and Prince Edward Island, this design is available an an exclusive print starting today here.

Celebrate your own fondness for the True North Strong and Free or give as a gift to your favorite Canuck!

Biggest License Plate Map... Ever?


I've been making maps for a long time now out of license plates. Up until recently, the biggest size I'd conquered was 5 feet wide. I'd seen a couple photos out there of 1 or 2 maps that exist that measured twice or three times that. But, I never figured I'd be involved in making one myself!

So, a previous client called and asked, "Just how big of a map COULD you make?"

And so, this project began. Months later, I am ready to ship out a map made of license plates that is 10 feet wide by 6 feet high, and weighs well over 100 pounds. It heads onto a freight truck this week for a trip out west to California, where it will adorn the walls of an aviation company's lobby.

This project was a massive challenge: from the scale of the states, to the concept and creation of a board big enough and strong enough to hold itself up. Check some of the in-progress photos I snapped below. Hope you enjoy!
