A Map and a Plan


Earlier this month I was approached by Mapiful about a collaboration and I jumped at the chance


because the website was so easy to use, you can create almost any map and you choose your own labels for the map.


I love the label @juliennelle chose for her map and the caption for the map shared on #mapiful by @siwzen is so touching.


Mapiful requested that I post a pic on Instagram 


and share my story as to why I chose the particular map.


Part of the joy of a vacation is the anticipation so it's fun for now to look at this little display in the guest room.


After hanging the map on the old door, 


I hung a wire basket and went to my shed to find faux flowers -


tulips seemed like the obvious choice in my homage to Amsterdam.


While I was in the shed I spotted the book, A Paris Apartment 


which led to me looking around the house for other books with a Paris theme or title.


This little display will remain until Christmas decor takes over, but by that time, we should have our dates nailed down and the tickets purchased.


By then my daughter-in-law and I will be busy actually looking for a Paris apartment to rent.
