Jack's Map

Even though we are moving into our permanent home in 8 months I was feeling a little restless with all of the bare walls around our current place.  I wanted to just add a few things so it felt more like home. It's hard to do with most of our things in the garage and we sold a lot of what we had in California (trust me, I'm not missing it) so, I decided to get a couple of things. I only wanted to purchase things that we will use when we move.  I noticed this oversize wall map at IKEA and loved it!  It is huge!  This map covers so much empty wall space I am happy we added it to his empty room.  He loves it too.  We find ourselves referencing it a lot when they ask about different places.  Artwork with a purpose :)

My guy.

Pillow and bedding is from Homegoods.  Seriously, his room is not even put together but I'm at least moving in the right direction!!


The lighting was off so I was unable to get an overall shot but you can tell by the bed, which is a queen, just how big this print is.  I think there is some great "boy room" colors in this print that I look forward to adding to his room!  I guess I have 8 months to decide on which color to paint his walls :)
