Are you a keen traveler? Can’t live without travelling and planning your trips? Then you should definitely express your passion in home décor, let it be a home of a traveler! I have some cool ideas to share, they will show your favorite hobby in a stylish way, without being tasteless or excessive, let’s have a look.

Maps

Maps scream travelling like nothing else! We advise to incorporate a world map into your home décor: make a statement wall in your bedroom or living room, hang it in your home office to inspire yourself to work and earn for more travelling. You can not only hang a map but use more creative ideas, for example, removable wall decals and various types of wall art: string wall art, graphic wall art, paper map art with lights or others. Point the destinations of your trips there and maybe attach some photos to bring the great memories. The good thing about it is that you can realize all these décor ideas yourself, just for cheap or almost for nothing!

Suitcases

Suitcases, especially vintage ones, can be repurposed into various pieces of furniture and just décor, and all of them have a big advantage – they can be a comfy storage space! Paint them if needed to match your colors and style and then stack them on each other in your bedroom and create a cool bedside table, or use just one if it’s enough. You can also repurpose a suitcase into a console or a table for your hallway, just add legs and it will be a comfy storage piece with a unique look. suitcases can be also repurposed into shelves of any kind, and here you just need your trip souvenirs and photos – and a perfect travel-themed display is ready!

Travel Gallery Walls

What can be better than a gallery wall with photos from your own trips? I guess, nothing inspires more than those amazing memories and picturesque places! You can create a gallery wall with different configurations, shapes and looks, it may be eclectic or regular, with one type of frames or various, with one size of photos or different – just remember that it should perfectly fit your space.   When you introduce metallics, stained woods, colored frames, etc. things can start to become visually distracting, so prefer something more neutral to focus at the photos themselves.
