Design a One-of-a-Kind City Street Map Ornament Made Just for You

Create a meaningful keepsake that celebrates the city, town, or neighborhood closest to your heart. Whether it’s your hometown, the place you fell in love, your college town, or a favorite travel destination, we’ll transform your city’s street grid into a beautifully layered wooden ornament full of depth, detail, and urban character.

Perfect for gifting or displaying year-round, each custom ornament begins with careful research of your chosen city to accurately capture its most recognizable streets, layout, and landmarks.


How to Customize Your City

Tell us your city:
In the personalization box, include the city name, state (or country), and (if you know it) the neighborhood or downtown area you’d like us to feature.

Add important landmarks (optional):
Have a spot that matters to you? List any must-have features you’d like included—such as a college campus, main street, park, riverfront, stadium, or historic district.

Include any text or title (optional):
If you’d like custom wording (e.g., “Downtown Asheville”, “Smith Family – Chicago, IL”, or a special date), add that as well.

Review & timing:
We’ll research your city, design your custom layout, and create your ornament within 2–3 weeks. If we need clarification, we’ll message you before we begin.


Premium Multi-Layer Craftsmanship — Designed From Scratch for Your City

Every custom city street map ornament is handcrafted with the same meticulous quality as our standard designs, but uniquely created based on your chosen city:

  • Precisely laser-cut layers of premium Baltic birch and MDF

  • A crisp cherry wood frame featuring your custom city name

  • Detailed street grid showing key roads, blocks, districts, and natural boundaries

  • Layered construction creates striking shadows and depth

  • Hand-painted accents (if applicable) to highlight signature features

  • Finished with a protective seal for lasting beauty

Want us to include something special? Just let us know—historic districts, iconic roads, waterfronts, colleges, main squares, and more can often be incorporated.

Why Choose a Custom City Street Map Ornament?

Unlike generic city souvenirs, our ornaments showcase the actual street grid that makes your city unique. The layered construction adds dimensional artistry, turning everyday infrastructure into a miniature piece of urban design. It’s part map, part décor, and part personal history—capturing the spirit of your city in a beautifully handcrafted form.


Handcrafted in Illinois

Every ornament is designed and handmade in our Woodstock, Illinois workshop by our small husband-and-wife team. When you choose a custom city map, you're supporting a small artisan business dedicated to creating meaningful keepsakes that honor the places and stories people cherish most.


If you'd like an alternate version (shorter, more SEO-heavy, wholesale-focused, or Etsy-optimized), I can generate that too!
