I'm back from a very fun + full weekend up in Connecticut visiting my friend Erin. We conquered a bunch of junk shops and tag sales, enjoyed an amazing dinner of Afghan food, treated ourselves to homemade ice cream, and accomplished a complete styling facelift of her living room for less than $100. Rather amazing! I'm admittedly a little tired today. The biggest find of the weekend was most definitely this giant 5-foot map — for just $30! When I saw this map of Connecticut's Hartford County, I knew it needed to go home with Erin. Despite her home's frustratingly rock-solid plaster walls, we managed to hang the map yesterday. It's added one big wow to her family room. I love maps hung as art — what a score!
