Map Prints
I have always wanted a study with a huge map covering one of the walls. I have found a few ideas that I love, but I either haven't had the wall space or couldn't find a map that I wanted that wasn't a small fortune.
Costco recently had some semi large maps on sale for a super price, but upon opening them, they were a little wrinkly looking (hence the super cheap price). The Boy has still really enjoyed it, but it wasn't quite what I was hoping it would be.
But now I am wondering if he will freak out if I cut it into pieces. I found this image at Apartment Therapy:
and I love the idea of having his map be a collection of map prints. A few pieces of MDF (that I already have cut to size if I could just remember what box they got packed away in) and some mod podge and I think I can take care of the wrinkly map problem.
Not sure how useful or educational the map will be at that point, but sometimes you have to sacrifice!
