Today after Nate got back from his trip to New Orleans with Jackson and Daniel we went out and had a yummy dinner/lunch at Cheddar’s and stopped in to Michael’s to pick up his map that we’ve been wanting to frame for about two years now!
(Day 164 of 365 Days of Marriage – follow us at 365 Days of Marriage on Tumblr!)
We sent it off two weeks ago and it was all ready for pick up today. When we bought this house we had a small idea that it would go in the cut out blank area in our living room, but we weren’t quite sure. After seeing this piece of furniture at Target, the whole vision came together. Nate suggested that we put the cube organizer below the map with photo albums labeled from our travels. I love this idea, and I can’t wait to get the organizer and the cute baskets!
We’ve spent all night pinning our travels, but didn’t get finished. The white pins are for our trips together, the yellow are for mine, the green for his, and the blue are for all University of Kentucky related traveling (like his trip to New Orleans!). I can’t wait to be able to pin more places together!
Have you seen something similar to this done before? I’d love to see other maps with pinned travels! =)
(PS: We’ve started our 365 again! Hooray!)
I use little organizing wicker baskets but they don't get an attention, they're in my linen closet!
I've always wanted some! I love baskets but I never buy them. Now I have a reason to. 🙂
I LOVE this idea! I think we'll probably do something like it once we settle down somewhere "permanent."

This is such a cute idea!
Iiiiii may steal the map idea. AAAAND the basket idea. WHOOPS.
Go for it!
Where did you get the map? We're trying to do something similar, but haven't found a good sized map!!
