Today's keyword is MAPS! Okay, I love map prints, map related items - even though I can't read a map to save my life ;) I think one of my best thrift finds was a map purse that I found while I was in utah, for only $3 or something pretty awesome. It's my favorite purse! Here are some cool map finds I came across. What do you think?

    I LOVE maps! They're so cool looking as decor - whether on a wall or on a globe. And, it's fun to pinpoint all the places you want to go!

    I love that you wrote a post on maps! So cool! My favorite is the Wall Art map (and the map purse!).

    I love the scratch off map, but I just worry I'd get scratch off happy and do the entire thing. Or worse, that I'd somehow feel unfulfilled if I didn't visit every single country and place on this planet so that I could scratch them all off. It's almost like an endless to-do list. I have been looking into maps of CA lately -- I'd love to have something that reminds me of this place every time I look at it.

    I love the scratch off map... but like Brandi, I think I would see it as an endless to-do list. So instead, something like the restoration hardware map would be more practical! 50 states is much easier than the entire world...

    I need a globe. Seriously. They are so fun and much more accurate (in my opinion) and you can spin them and dream.

    The scratch off map is pretty awesome. I've also seen on the web where someone used a map for a matte around a picture. Super cute and adds a nice splash of color =)
