My New World Map

I have been wanting a kick-butt world map.  Yesterday I went on to etsy.  That etsy is a dangerous place.  But I found this beauty.

Watercolor Map of the World Map, Art Print, 24x36 inch (687)

Isn't it gorgeous?  It's done by a young guy in England.  I ordered it in a 3 foot by 5 foot size, and I plan on hanging it in my kitchen.  But first, I have to paint all the walls black, and then one of the walls will have black and white stripes.  Add this awesome map and lots of white and colorful accents and I think it's going to rock the house.

Of course, I may have to change the cupboards from black to white, and that's always a lot of work, but we'll see.

The bigger problem is how I am going to do all of this painting with all my babies?

  2. Jo- I actually had to order this size from the business he is also associated with here in the US- imagekind. The link for this exact map is below. You can order it in a bunch of different sizes. He couldn't print anything out of England himself over a 18"X24". It actually worked out great, because it was much cheaper to go this route. I paid $60 for map and shipping and handling because a 22% coupon popped up on the site. It would have cost me more than that to order the smaller size and ship it from England.

    His etsy store is artPause. I am assuming you would just enter that word. Look at all of his stuff. He does some amazingly awesome world maps in all sorts of dift. ways. And he does an Africa map where each country is spelled out in its borders. Otherwise, I found him by typing in "colorful world map"

    Hope you find something you like, I don't think it will be too hard!
