New rug for My Living Room

After a year and a month of searching for a new rug for my living room,
I have finally made the move and found what I wanted. I wanted the rug
to be brighter than what I had, more yellows, greens and creams, I wanted
it to be elegant with a pattern and a border and be 9' x 12' and it cannot cost
a lot. I wanted it to wool and thick and hand made. I am asking a lot, I found
rugs on Wayfair and Ballard Design but wanted to search more. I even searched
on Ebay were I found a rug that lead me to Amazon were I found a great rug, but
it had too much blue in it. So I went onto Amazon and put in my colors and my
size and found exactly what I was looking for and under $400 including shipping.



 It is just the right color, not too dark or too light, warm and elegant. It is by Safavieh, hand
made, 9' x 12' and wool and feels amazing. It lightens up the room. I dragged it in and laid it
down by myself. It will be shifted later when I can find some help. Below is the rug that I had
in the room, I bought for the house I lived in at 317 East Beverley St. , the room was huge and
had lots of light. For pictures see the Staunton Christmas tour in 2014, any way I needed a
lighter colored rug, in here it was just to dark.



This rug is a wool/silk Art Deco Chinese Oriental Chinoiserie Rug and it will go on
my Ebay and Etsy site and also is sold in Queen City Marketplace.

Rugs, Old and New, Placing Around the House

New year, new look and a great time to find some
deals on the internet. With a coupon from Wayfair,
I purchased a new rug for the hallway, brighter colors
and a bigger size.

The rug is by Safavieh and helps hide the horrid tile, it's a rental.
The old rug in the hallway went to the downstairs 1st floor
bath room to soften up the floor.

I purchased it from TJ Maxx and it is by Dynamic Rugs. The dressing room rug was
also in the hallway briefly, but it was way to thick and it made it hard to open the front
door.

It is a very pretty virgin wool rug from Tuesday Morning. The bedroom rug went to
the guest room and the guest room rug went to my bedroom. The fit was better and it gives
you a pop of color and warmth without covering the pretty floors.


Both rugs came from TJ Maxx and are  by Safavieh Vintage and Dynamic Rugs.
The large rug in the den is from Wayfair with a good coupon and is also Safavieh
Vintage. I wanted a large rug for this room because i spend a lot of time in here and
wanted most of the floor covered.

 Mandy testing out the rug and photo bombing the picture. The last rugs came from
Ballard design and Target.
The runners from Ballard are thick neutral wool hand hooked rugs from India.
The sisal rug by the door it to catch the dirt from my shoes and matches the kitchen rug
in the next room.The kitchen sisal rug had been in my den for a coupe of years and fits
great here under the table.
It softens the cold tile, again, it's a rental. I took all my Dhuries  into Queen City
Marketplace to sell.
