I’m Planning a Global Takeover
Seriously! I’m taking over the world, one vintage globe at a time. Please put your pinky up to your lips and insert a maniacal laugh here.
Collecting vintage globes is a very easy collection to get into. You can find them pretty easily at thrift stores and garage sales.
They are so easy to display as well. Especially since they come in so many different colors. They coordinate with any decor.
There is no better way to travel the world than with a spin of a globe. Wouldn’t you love to travel to exotic places like Burma? And the United Soviet Socialist Republic? Wait…. what?!
Don’t you remember when your were a young student, putting your finger on one side of the globe and drawing an imaginary line through the globe to find out what is on the other side of the world. So that just in case you ever decided to dig a hole all the way through the earth you would know your location when you popped out of the ground on the other side. Better bring a boat because most likely you will find yourself in the ocean!
This weekend is a good time to start your own mission to take over the globe! Let me know what you find and take a pic! Hashtag it #globaltakeover Can’t wait to see what you find!

I would love to hang maps in our guest bath. Wonder if I can squeeze in a globe? 😉

If my husband was a collector of sorts, I am sure he would collect globes and maps. We both love geography, but he is really passionate about it. What a fun hobby! #saygday
Love it! Too cool! Thanks for sharing at the Twirl & Take a Bow Party!

I think globes are so neat too and I have been looking for one to do this idea with: http://dishfunctionaldesigns.blogspot.com/2012/01/global-recycling-old-globes-upcycled.html
It is not my blog but I love the idea.
I love that idea too. I have even made a few of those to sell at my space
