Feeling "Blue in a Good Way!

We have developed a great reputation over the past 11 years for quality nautical chart murals. But we are always looking for new ideas in nautical decoration.  

Blueprints are like nautical charts in a couple of ways. First, they contain an amazing amount of detail. Second, they look great on a wall, and bring a nice atmosphere to a room.

One difference between blueprints and NOAA nautical charts is this: NOAA charts have no copyright protection, where some blueprints do, especially the more recent ones. But if there are protection issues, it may be fairly easy to get permission to use the image for a one-time decoration. Sometimes all you have to do is ask the owner nicely, and say “please.” If that doesn't work, a modest check usually does the trick! If you have ever purchased a used car, you have all the skills you need to pull this off!

For sailboat enthusiasts, a blueprint mural is a great way to bring your sailboat into your office or home! Blueprints are an excellent way to show the quality of thought, engineering and beauty that went into your sailboat design!

But why stop there! Think of all the cool items that can be seen in a blueprint. How about Starship Enterprise for your kid’s room? Or the Titanic?  Maybe even the Brooklyn Bridge. Do an Google search for blueprints, then hit “images” and you will be surprised at all the ideas that come up.

And one last thought. If blue just isn’t your color, we can change out the blue in the blueprint to your favorite color. Just make sure it is dark enough to offer plenty of contrast to the white lines in the picture.

So are you feeling “blue” yet? Better give me a call (801) 989-8083 and I will help you through it all with some decorating therapy!

  "Skipper" Steve Morris has been sailing for more than 45 years. Whenever Skipper's sailor friends used to talk about their sailing adventures, it was not unusual for them to grab a chart, unroll it to a certain island or waterway, and tell a story of what happened during a particular voyage. As Skipper realized that nautical charts are used for navigating stories as well as passageways, the idea of nautical chart murals came naturally. What better place to tell a tale of the sea than in one's own home or office than with a beautiful nautical chart mural as the visual aid!

   In 2013, he moved to the Coeur d'Alene area of Northern Idaho with his wife Linda. When Skipper is not working on murals, you can find him sailing his Erickson 27' on Lake Coeur d’Alene.

   He continues to design custom-made wallpaper from nautical charts, satellite photos, topographical maps and favorite photos.
