On the Map

Maybe it's my raging case of wanderlust talking, but lately I have been dreaming about plastering a map over an entire wall.

My vision includes a map with lots of detail and character, preferably something old and probably of the entire world.

I'd love to put it in our study, with a desk sitting in front of it.

But these flickr finds offer some great ideas too.

Just lovely -- a collection of muted maps hung alongside one another.

How cool to place a big map behind a long dining table.

I love how from a distance this map looks like abstract wallpaper.

Such colorful and inspiring decor for a child's bedroom.
