Happy Thursday! One more day until the weekend...we are SO close! Lately I've been spending a lot of time window shopping instead of actually shopping. SO BORING, but so very necessary. One of my favorite places to
I always love a good gallery wall. A gallery wall of maps? Perhaps that's in our near future...
While on the gallery wall kick, I'm super into the idea of making a gallery wall of funkier vintage maps of LA/California like these pretties I'm currently crushing hard on.

I also love a gallery wall that just has one map accent on it

If you don't want to go full gallery wall, you could always do a quad like this or one giant map

One of the maps we have in our house is actually from this company I found while browsing for maps on etsy. They will take a piece of a vintage map & cut out any quote you want!
I also LOVE the idea of having a map in your house with pins of every place you've visited. This one is a current work-in-progress for us
I've also seen these scratch-off maps that are a cool version of the map above
If you no longer live in the same city/state you were born it, it would be fun to have a map from where you grew up. This Michigan map would make the perfect accent to a gallery wall. J & I currently have 2 matching maps of Chicago & LA. I think you can guess why.
This 1924 map of Detroit might need to be purchased. Like, now.
I've also had my eye on a hand painted globe for quite some time...though these tend to be much pricier than maps :(
This post really could keep going...maybe I'll create a Part 2. Have you decorated with maps? I'd love to see what you've done!
Ryan LOVES maps...we have one of Turks and Caicos as part of our gallery wall and a "movie" map of his in our entryway. Would love to find an artsy Chicago map someday! -Wigs
ReplyDeleteI've been cooking peppers and onions in the skillet on the grill a lot lately. I'll have to add jalapenos next time. Yum. I like cooking bacon that way too, although hot fat + open flame adds a nice element of danger. I used to get flank steak, but my husband got me to try the carne asada cut from our local market, and I prefer it. Not sure if it's thin-cut flank or skirt (I'll have to ask), but it looks like this
