I had no intentions of being away this long, but illness and other stuff has meant my time in this space has been scant lately. It doesn't mean that I haven't been busy, so I do have lots to share and hopefully I'll get around to taking some photos to show you what I've been up to.
One little addition to our home is this map, it was free in an issue of Frankie recently. We have a number of relatives and friends in far flung (and not so far flung) places and it's kind of an abstract idea to little ones. We get lots of questions about exactly where these people are and how far away from us they are. I mounted it on some foam board and popped it in a frame without glass so we can change pins around as people move and add in some if need be. I added a couple of hooks underneath with a sting line so we can peg up the postcards as they arrive in the letterbox. It's all quite exciting to a 5 year old and we anxiously await the next postcards!
Love it! I may have to steal this idea at some point... Such a cute way to display that poster!
ReplyDeleteI love it too.
ReplyDeleteI've got that poster ready and waiting to frame- you have inspired me to go and get it done as yours looks amazing. what a neat idea adding the hooks too.
ReplyDeleteReally lovely idea! It's always the simple ones that do the trick isn't it!? :D

ReplyDeleteOoooh awesome! I love the posters that come with Frankie, but this is one of the best I think.
