Living room..again.

I've been on the lookout for a rug, you know this. I thought I found the perfect one way back in December but held off just in case it wasn't perfect. And, boy am I glad I did! I saw this lovely online but wasn't 100% on the color. We already have beigy colored carpets and I don't need a rug that is the same color! Luckily in person it was a much deeper, darker color.

Greenish-graigeish.. Love. Girly enough for the women in the house, and manly enough for the..er.. men in the house. :)

It does seem to bring out the green in the walls, but I'm okay with that. It's my favorite color I might as well swim in it! I have a few things I'm going to tweak and move around and guess what? The room, will be done! Or as done as it can be until I decide to paint something. :)

First things first-- A chair for the empty wall!

    The rug is beautiful! It adds a nice pop of color without being overpowering. Good thing you waited for the perfect rug, 'cause I think you found it :)

    The rug looks like a good choice. We are in rug buying mode and I found a similar one in grey I want for our bedroom. I can't wait to see the chair you choose. :)

    Great rug! I've been thinking about adding rugs back in - probably keep things warmer. But we have five cats, and last time we had rugs, I had to vacuum every other day or it would look gross.

    I really like the rug. It does that room justice. My wife and I had a real hard time finding an affordable rug that we liked. In the end we bought one that was a steal of a deal. It was a floor model that fit our rooms style.

    Great Post!

    Cheers,
    Matt
