interior inspiration : mapped out.













I love the look of old maps pinned or framed on walls in people's homes. I actually have a collection of reproductions of them rolled up in the top of our closet, just waiting to be used. I dream of having them made to pull down from the ceiling like in school. Oh, someday perhaps...

    These are all so great. I've been looking for the perfect map to put on one of my walls that is blank at the moment. Hopefully I find one soon.

    So great! Goodness me. I can't decide which is my favorite. Which I suppose isn't that important, it's not always necessary to have a "fave." =)

    I really love maps. We used to have a bunch of National Geographic ones pinned in my upstairs hallway growing up.

    Beautiful. It would make me feel like such a world traveler to have these around.

    Also, now I have that song in my head, "Maaa-aps, they don't love you like I love you."
