We are finally giving in to our major crush on industrial decor, so we tackled our family room for the April Room Challenge. To start, we had to address a HUGE blank wall in our family room, and I DIY'd our own Paris Map Art...by tile printing the image on my inkjet printer at home.
We tile printed a map on our home computer. When pieced together, my art would be 72" x 56".
Love yellowing paint and scuffed walls? Then this is the room for you (BEFORE) - and yes, my kids chuck their laundry over the railing. Fancy setup, huh?
We chose to display the map as a "tiled" image. So we cut MDF, then stained the exposed edges with Rustoleum Varathane Dark Walnut. Ryobi Power Tools cut the MDF like it was butter.

I have a similar set-up, and I chunk my laundry baskets over the rail, too, and I am far from being a kid! I really like your design; does Paris have a particular meaning to your family?
