TGIF, right?!? Today’s post is once again in response to a question from one of my readers (who also happens to be a great friend ♥).  She just moved into a new place and is looking for a chair for her home office.  She’s ready for something fun with a pop of color or a pattern (or both), and something that can be moved into the living home for extra seating for guests.  Both her office and living room have patterned rugs (one has an ikat pattern and the other is geometric), so I wanted to be sure not to pick anything that would compete too much with those patterns… oh, and the rooms have lots of grey in them.

With all that in mind, I started the search. I was definitely steering clear of the traditional, boring office chair with wheels, but I was still able to find lots of options. Here are some that are particularly fun and fabulous.

Happy Saturday everyone!  Today’s post is in response to a question from one of my readers. She just bought this BEAUTIFUL sofa…

Gorgeous, right?!?

So now she’s looking for a rug to complement it. I happen to know that she has a toddler, so I decided to go with options that have a darker base color (spill, what spill?).  I also wanted to make sure to not pick anything that was crazy expensive (well, maybe just one).  I’m giving her a few different options depending on the style and feel she’s envisioning for her space.

So… here are 4 picks from one of my secret go to sites for rugs

sophisticated & Contemporary

refined & Traditional

Fun & Graphic

bold & Eclectic

Fingers crossed she likes one of them.

5 Rugs to Make You Think Pink

I’m now fully in nursery decorating mode… is this what they call nesting? We’ve gone with a muted gray on the walls and white furniture.  Now it’s time to bring in a little bit of color!  One of the key items on the list is a rug, and I’m thinking pink.  Nothing too girly… something with personality and style that our daughter can grow into over time.  Here are 5 rugs in contention.  Would love to know what you think!
