I love the picture above that shows how fabulous old, worn textiles – like rugs can work layered with new rugs. I sometimes layer old rugs with a sisal underneath. I'm always searching for antique kilim rugs and here are a few more in my house. I'm now on the hunt for additional antique textiles to make into pillows, more on the results of that coming soon.
DEB'S TOP THREE: STRIPED RUGS
I definitely have a thing for stripes. I love a stripe on just about anything from tea towels to bedding to rugs! I've had the striped rug in my third floor seating area (shown above) for awhile now. With the simple, classic look, it adds a neutral pattern; just enough...but not too much.
Here are 3 striped rugs Iʼm loving right now!
1. Serena & Lily Serape wool dhurrie in colour juice! Wow, combining my current pink obsession with a stripe. I love this rug!
2. Oxford rug in colour Awning by Domino. A classic blue stripe, really you canʼt go wrong. This would be adorable in a boys bedroom.
3. Finesse Stripe Outdoor rug in colour Capri by Capel. This is such a great looking outdoor rug that works well outside or in a high traffic entry or mud room. Itʼs a durable outdoor rug made of 100% olefin.
(Psst... We sell this rug in a variety of sizes [and a couple of other colours]. Email us for a price.)
