Pin Boards

My daughter and I enjoy trading pins. I want to display some of them in our new house. I purchased a few canvases that I want to paint before we add the pins and hang them up.

Any inspirational photos or ideas of what we should do? I have two ideas, one is to use a map as the background, and the other is to paint a tree - think the wedding guestbook/sign the tree type thing, where the pins become the leaves.

Open to all ideas, please and thanks!

I'm going to personalize shadowboxes for my kid's pins after our trip. I want to make sure they are displayed behind glass.. The last thing I want to do is find a random pin with my bare feet!
