That was an awkward attempt to tie in shot callin' and ballin' with the word "wall". An average attempt if effectiveness is the measure I suppose. But oh well.
Regardless of my relatively poor attempts at humor, here I am spending hours on Etsy trying to find the perfect ways to decorate our walls when we get back to Perth. I know it is a year out, but I am already imaging my walls. That is a bit sad. But I love walls. So much potential. I keep a running list of inspiration
here on my Pinterest.
In my dream home I will have a whole wall to hang my growing vintage needlework collection. A whole wall for my growing scientific image collection. A wall for Maori art. A wall for our Black and White prints of Steve McQueen and Bridgette Bardot. A space in my wardrobe for my vintage French fashion magazine covers. A wall with enough space for a giant map of the world. A wall for the vintage map collection that Rob is slowly growing. A wall for art from all my talented family. And, of course, enough room for all the photos we have been taking in our travels.
Oh, not to mention enough room for all these finds - I have already bought a bunch of them!

I loved Madeline as a child. I have this image in my head, that when we have a nursery I have a bunch of my favorite illustractions from when I was a child up on the wall. This in one of them! I also just bought a bunch of floral images from this store, can't wait to get them!

I love the color of Mr Fish here. He would look good on my wall I think.

We had this up on the Candy Bar at our wedding. Not only is it a sweet lyric, it makes me think of our special day. Also, this company were so good to work with, they even made us a custom image of some love badgers!

I love this. It makes me think of Liz, and also, I just love old scientific illustrations.

I just love the images in this store. I love all her work. It was actually really hard to choose which one to put up here, but in the end I went for the blue. I am a blue lover.

Isn't this awesome? I just bought one for my love for Valentines Day. I think he will love it.

Y'all know I love whales. I really love them. I have a whole
Pinterest page on them, and well you know. They are just amazing.

So this is my new favorite store on Etsy. I just adore the store, and the lovely photographer behind it. You can check her out at the link below, or see her blog

If there is someone who doesn't love this, they are nuts. Narnia was one of my favorite books as a kid, and I wanna go!

Isn't this adorable? I want it on our future nursery wall. So sweet and I love the colors.
