I don't know where.. but I've seen them used as wrapping paper too. Now, isn't that a cool one. But, a vase is even cooler. As always, you make me think out of the box. I just adore how you beautiful mind creates and works. And best yet, you capture the most stunning pictures of that little space in the corner of your mind to share with us all.
Absolutely adorable! Such a sweet idea.! Wonderful centerpieces for a dinner party for all the invited guest to tell about their favorite place they've traveled! xo, LuLu
Maps can be so pretty. I love the globe with the flowers, what a clever idea. I have a map hanging at the bottom of my basement stairs right now. There are gold stars there too. We put a gold star on the places we want to see in the US or Canada and next year there will be some road trips.
Whoa doggie! How adorable is that first image!!! I lOVE it! My sister Courtney collects globes and I was just thinking how cute they were all lined up on her shelves ... I want one too!!! xo
We are using maps today! Just perfect for me :) now all I need is a big bunch of flowers to pretty up this atlas :). The best map is one that leads to home after an adventure !
I'm with you I love maps!!! I collect them and make sweet cards out of them. I love the covered boxes....great idea! Off to the craft room I go! Chris :o)
I love maps, too! I am on the lookout for an old Florida map to frame. I like to google maps and look at the links! Love the ideas you've found! Enjoy your weekend! ♥
Globes and maps can be lots of fun!! I also love your pretty pink peony in the globe vase (at least I think it is a peony) Hope you are having a great day :)
Oh, oh, oh....I love maps and globes! I always have. I use to love looking at the classroom maps because of all the pretty colors! I love the globe flower vase. Just beautiful! xo, Sena p.s. You must sneak over to my blog and see what I made. I think it's right up your alley!
Hi Koralee . Love your maps-images. My friend Leontien makes the most beautiful boxes and stuff with maps .... I love them . Are you enjoying your days ..... Must be wonderful.... Waking up and have a coffee and muse ...... Have a happy summertime sweet friend
I love globes! I do this thing where i'll spin a globe and see where my next trip will be, in my dreams only, but it's still fun to dream :) Happy long weekend my friend! xox
You know, it takes a lot of creativity and reflection to take an every day item ( for us teachers!) like a map, to make décor. I am intrigued by this idea and I think I am going to enhance my writing space with some map paper that I received as wrapping for a gift....I LOVE THIS and you....sweet and FREE BLUEBIRD OF HAPPINESS!!!
Hi Koralee! I love this idea! Wouldn't they look adorable at school? They would make such cute secretary gifts! I'll have to remember this... I think secretary's day is in the spring.
The designs using maps would look great on a bookcase or computer desk too!
We're having such a sweet time here with Jason ~ I'm going to have to store these sunny, blue sky days in my heart since in NY State there has been one day of sunshine every other week! I'm going to hold on to my "happy dance spirit" as long as I can!!!
Love the image of a world full of peonies! And I can imagine those boxes filled with travel dreams and souvenirs! So pretty! I've changed internet browsers. Let's see if I can post a comment now! Here goes! Blessings!
I LOVE globes and maps! I have a U.S. mural wall map and a World mural wall map. I want to collect globes, but I just have nowhere to keep them in my apartment. Some day when I have more space! But I do have a desk globe, the school-type one with blue water and multi-colored countries, and then I have a small decorative antique globe too. My collection is off to a good start!
Congratulations from Spain for the Canada Day and for your beautiful blog!! You have great ideas even for my modest tablescapes blog. Sure I¨ll ask you for photos any time. Helen helenstable.blogspot.com

Oh, I love these! I love the pale blues and pinks in vintage maps. And look at that cute minature blue chair resting on top of your covered boxes!!!
So inspiring as always!

I love maps too, I used them when I was sailing alone a lot! Also when we went on our 5125 mile loop around the US last summer!
((hugs)), Teresa :-)
Lovely ideas Koralee! I loved your dressed up Oreos too!

I have a couple of very old globes rescued from the trash bin when I taught school. I think they're beautiful! Maps are too!!!
love the maps, koralee. the colors are so inspiring. the peony posy in the little globe is particularly fetching.
i hope the sun is shining for you today, my friend.

I love maps too. Cleggy doesn't. Maybe that's because he can't read one!
