Around the Globe

Next to hanging maps (like this or this) and prints (like this and this) I'm looking forward to display my soon to be globe collection in my living room. I just love how they can transform any space into a globetrotting maven and I decided to start a collection as of today. Ebay, flea markets and vintage design stores here I come! Project globe is on! Do you have one at home?

  3. i've always loved the look of globe collections and have seriously thought of starting my own (sometimes i see globes when i'm out thrifting)

    but - i've just packed up my apartment since i'll be moving to india for a year! so i guess the globe collection will have to wait...

  7. Gaby! The globes are gorgeous - especially the hanging ones, and the CLOCK, wow! Been reading since the spring but globes deserved a comment. I love looking at old maps and seeing old countries and names and trying to determine what year it was! hahaha

    I only have one large painting of the world in my room, it looks like antique - it probably isn't!

  13. my parents have one at our house at home and i think it adds such character to a room and is so fun to look at. i definitely should think about investing in one or two for my apartment.

  18. I'm a new reader = ) THE all white really caught my eye.. what i Love most about having an all-white place, and admiring others who do to, is, you can bring pieces in that can be the sole focal point, be it art or...

    Love your site, so inspirational..

  22. I always loved globes and all kind of maps. I could spend hours studying maps of all different kind of countries. so my parents already gave my a globe as a christmas present a long long time ago. I still have it :)
    I guess they fueled my longing for traveling since an early age :)

  28. I have been wanting to get a globe for ages! My family had one when I was a child and I loved it, and have been looking for something similar the last few years... something so classic about them! Perfect addition to any decor!
