Easy fixing of the wooden world map XL
To create a floating effect on the wall, the wooden world map XL is supplied with spacers about 1 cm thick. Of course you will also receive an installation instruction, so everyone can place the map on the wall with ease. If you prefer to attach the parts directly to the wall, you can of course do that too. Do this by using double-sided tape or mounting kit / mounting adhesive. Just know that the tape just doesn’t hold so well on a wall with structure. In that case it is better to drill and screw or use mounting adhesive.
Available in multiple sizes
The wooden world map XL is available in sizes 140 by 70 cm (about 55 by 27 inches), 160 by 80 cm (about 63 by 32 inches) and 180 by 90 cm (about 71 by 35 inches) with a thickness of 9 mm (about 1/3 inch). It is made of poplar sheet material. In addition, an XXL version of 230 x 115 cm is also available.
Many color options for your wooden world map
The featured photo is of a world map stained in rosewood. Of course it can be delivered in any desired colour, in stain or in paint, so that it always fits into your interior. Take a look at the color palette. Please note that wood is a natural material. Every wooden world map XL therefore has its own unique pattern.

Frequently asked questionsHow do I install the wooden world map onto the wall?With the world map you will receive a live size poster with instructions on how to attach the various parts onto the wall. The poster is attached to the wall with masking tape on the spot where you would like your world map to be. With the aid of a level you can check if the poster is perfectly straight. On the poster, each continent or island has markings for where you place the spacers onto the wall. The markings are already cut in the poster, so the exact spot where the parts go is easily determined. With the world map you will receive a set of spacers in different sizes, marked with a numbercode corresponding to the numbers on the poster. You can either attach the larger spacers onto the wall by drilling holes or by gluing them with a mounting adhesive. The latter works well on walls with a smooth finish or wallpaper. The smaller spacers are glued to the wall with mounting adhesive. Let the spacers dry well before gluing the continents and islands onto them with mounting adhesive. TIP 1: It is advisable to use masking tape on the parts to hold them in place while the adhesive is drying. After a few hours, when you are sure the adhesive is set, you can gently remove the tape again. TIP 2: If you wish to install the world map without the spacers, you can place the continents and islands directly onto the wall with mounting adhesive. If you have a wall with a smooth finish, you can also use doublesided adhesive tape. This can easily be removed, but is less stable than mounting adhesive and therefore not advisable on walls with a rough finish. How can I reinstall the world map when moving or refurbishing?It is certainly possible to reinstall the world map when you are refurbishing or moving to another home.
