Are you one of those people that cannot miss a single copy of National Geographic? Do you live vicariously through the stories in this magazine and think of locations around the world where you would see the amazing sites that are shown on the pages of this periodical? Why should you relegate your love of all the wonders of the world to just a magazine that you read once a month. Instead, you could really show off your love for these wonders by decorating your home in a National Geographic theme.
Your world globes are going to be the centerpiece of any national geographic theme. After all, how are you going to show off the spots around the world where the great stories came from without having something to point at?
While you may have thought one globe is enough, you may want to rethink that idea. As you start to decorate your room with items from various countries around the world, you will want to have one near each of these groupings of items. And they should be well focused on where the items in the room have come from.
Here are some ideas:
Africa
For Africa anything that looks as if it could have been found along a safari will fit just fine. It may be African arts and crafts such as carvings, painted pots or other items. If you like the more tribal look of things you may even want to look for some of the tribal masks that are worn during rituals and dances to use as your home decoration.
Central and South America
Central and South America are both well known for the Mayan, Aztec and Incan Indians who inhabited the lands for centuries, as well as their modern day colorful attire. Whether you choose artwork that depicts the life of these people, statues or carvings that seem as if they could have come out of one of the many ruin sites in these areas or any other items that depict their homelands, you will want to cluster these items around your world globes that are focused on their portion of the world.
Asia
Whether it's the mysteries of ancient Asia that has your interest or the modern day creations of Asia that grab your attention, there are a number of pieces that you can collect and display alongside world globes in your national geographic room. From large, carved furniture pieces to smaller trinkets, decorations, paintings or jade sculptures, the limits are just what you decide to create in this space.
In the creation of your national geographic room have fun. Think Indiana Jones, or an old safari lodge, filled with artifacts and art that has been collected during exotic travels around the planet. These, coupled with your collection of world globes, will offer a complete look of the room of a person who understands the worlds, the cultures in it and celebrates the unique people and lives that keep this world going around.
