In our International issue you’ll notice a recurring theme: maps. There’s just something so nostalgic about a world map pinned to a wall or a vintage globe on a bookshelf. But there are more ways to incorporate maps into your home than you might think… Scroll down for our round-up of great ideas with maps, and don’t miss our FREE download at the end of the post.

This is totally beautiful! Love love love it!
These really are “great ideas”! I especially like to see them framed and as wrapping paper.
Check out Hertex new local map print. It’s awesome and printed on 280m wide cotton. I’m going to curtain and fabcote with it
We must be on the same wavelength – we included Hertex’s new map print in our International Issue too!
This is beautiful and so inspiring.
One more “great ideas!”
