World Map Wall Painting

I’m in love with Madison’s World Map Wall Painting! Now that I finished installing the wood floors and all the trim is back in place, I think it looks awesome. I’m tempted to put my office back in here! LOL

Madison Googled “World Map”, found one she liked and we used a projector to trace it. Then we painted it by hand. All three of us spend most of last weekend with little artist brushes on this baby! 🙂

As you can see, there is more in store for this wall. I think, as is, it WOULD be a really cool backdrop for an office. But we’re going to make it a really cool girl’s room.

What else did I cross off my To-Do list for this room? Re-texture, paint, lights, fan, floors, baseboards, door casing and feature wall (mostly).

I just have to decide on window coverings, finish the FUN part of the feature wall and bring in her furniture. Then I’ll have one room in this house COMPLETELY done.

…as opposed to most that are not even started and a couple that are mostly done.

Feeling really good about one COMPLETELY done room after a year in this house. LOL

Wow! Looks Amazing! Can’t wait to see what you do next in there. And the floors are beautiful; and the map is sending it ever over the top! Great idea!

Over that ugly carpet? Heck yeah! Two visits to the Chiropractor and lots of ice. It was definitely worth it. LOL

Thanks Cheri. We used a projector to trace a world map and then painted it by hand. The room wasn’t big enough to move the projector back far enough to do the whole wall at once so we had to move it about 5 times and use reference points to get it lined back up properly. It was a bit tricky but it worked. 🙂

It is a very cool map, and I’d hate to cover it, too. But I do understand a young lady wanting her own vision in her own room. 🙂 Is the map from a stencil(s), do you think?
