amaginarium usa corkboard giveaway!

confession: i am holiday decorating obsessed. 
since owning our home, i have looked forward to decorating our mantel for the holidays. twinkle lights & glittery reindeer? check! fall leaves & bright orange pumpkins? check! patriotic happy flags in old blue mason jars? check!

so of course when amanda, one of my sweet blog supporters, of amaginarium messaged me to offer a giveaway on the blog, i squealed in delight. people, my fourth of july mantel is usa pride aaaamazing. this usa corkboard is so cute! (luke even likes it!)
the usa corkboard came with a lovely little pack of arrows to pin onto the map. i added two blue arrows to ours – one to our sweet northwest arkansas home & another to our lovely college town of columbia, missouri.

she even sweetened the deal with that adorable corkboard arkansas sticker. 
this map is perfect for the littles learning usa geography. get the kiddos involved by adding arrows to relatives’ hometowns! it’s also a fun tool for planning roadtrips & vacations! there are endless possibilities.

after the fourth of july is over, i plan to hang my little corkboard map in our creative corner. i am slowly working on this space, adding a big table for spreading out our creative projects & hanging art on the wall for inspiration. this map would also look darling in a guest bedroom for vistors to add arrows to where they live or a homeschooling corner in your home. 

above is a little visual of how i hung the corkboard map – fabric ribbon, a bit of pom pom yarn to add spunk & hot glue. easy peasy, friends!
