Review & Giveaway: CurlyQ Vinyl and the Coolest World Globe Map

This fall I have been a little obsessed with the group Classical Conversations.  They focus on classical education for children and although I haven't yet committed to joining a local group (it's expensive!) I have been planning to incorporate some of their ideas into our homeschooling.

One of their big areas of learning involves memorization of world geography information, and teaching children to draw a picture of the world from memory.  Cool, right?!

This, of course, made me want a nice big map of the world for the kids to see every day.  Enter CQ Wall Decals!  Well wandering on the great time waster Pinterest one day I saw a gorgeous map from their company and knew I wanted to own it.

This isn't your average thin vinyl that you put on the wall once.  It's a thicker material than I've seen before, and you can put it up/peel it off/move it around as many times as you want.  I haven't tried moving it yet but it does look like it will move much easier than other vinyl products I've tried.

Our globe is gorgeous!  It's nice and big, and went on the wall very easily.  I love it.

We put it in the living room for now, right next to the dining table so we see it all the time:


I love the non-committment of vinyl.  No holes in the wall, and no deep pondering about just the right location.  You can put it up and then, if you change your mind, no worries!  Move it 2 feet.  Move it 10.  It's all good.

Whereever it is,  it looks great:


Thanks, CurlyQ vinyl!  We're going to love using your world globe with all sorts of geography projects.  The globe also comes in sepia and a fun primary colors version.
