Alright, y’all. I’m getting fairly pissed off with my seek for an space rug for our bed room. I’ve checked out actually tons of of rugs on-line, and it’s simply so troublesome to see these little footage and understand how these will actually translate to a 9′ x 12′ space rug in a bed room.
I’m in search of something that can go along with my colours — darkish teal, inexperienced, and orange. So after wanting and looking out, this one from Boutique Rugs popped up on an commercial whereas I used to be scrolling Instagram, and it appeared to have all the correct colours.
I truly actually favored this rug! I held off on shopping for it for a few days and stored on looking out, however I stored coming again to this one as a result of it appeared like the right one. I wasn’t discovering the rest that got here even shut, so I made a decision to offer this one a strive.
And whereas I do know a lot of you expressed that you simply don’t like that vintage look, I find it irresistible. I lived in Turkey and visited fairly just a few rug shops whereas I used to be there, and I cherished watching these store keepers flip by means of their stack and stacks of vintage (and in addition new) Turkish rugs. So I personally love the look, whether or not it’s an actual vintage Turkish rug or it’s a brand new rug (which occurs to be made in Turkey) made to seem like an vintage Turkish rug.
So when my the rug was delivered, after which my material material (the darkish teal velvet) was delivered, I used to be excited to put every thing out and see the way it appeared collectively. Nicely, I hoped that my instant response could be, “I LOVE IT!!!” That wasn’t my response. I imply, I don’t hate it, however I’m simply iffy about it.
I did use my material material to cowl up the middle medallion since that received’t present. And all of teh colours appears to go properly, though I’ve to take subject with the truth that this rug known as Inexperienced Nisa Classic, and but it’s a must to get hold of the inexperienced within the rug. It’s there, however I don’t know why “inexperienced” is within the identify when clearly, it’s one of many least represented colours in your entire rug. There’s so little of it that should you aren’t in search of it, you’ll miss it.
And all the colours of the headboard material are within the rug. I put that material over within the nook since they received’t be proper subsequent to one another within the completed room. They’ll be separated by draperies, bedding, nightstands.
I feel one subject is that the rug, in particular person, has a decidedly extra Southwestern really feel to it than it did within the web site pictures. Actually, in these pictures, I don’t get a Southwestern vibe from it in any respect, not even within the image with the complete view of the entire rug.
However there’s simply one thing about it in individual that makes me suppose I might have picked this up in New Mexico as an alternative of Turkey.
So, I don’t know. I’m bored with in search of rugs. I really feel like there’s nowhere else to look until I wish to spend $700+ on a rug, which I don’t.
I went again to one of many first ones I purchased, and it was a direct no. I imply, simply…no. Regardless that all the colours appear type of proper, it’s simply not a fairly rug (to me).
So I feel I’m simply going to stay with this new one and belief that when every thing is within the room, with the entire numerous layers, from the wallpaper, wainscoting, headboard, draperies, bedside tables, bedding, and so forth., the rug received’t truly be an enormous participant within the room. It’ll simply add some refined colour to the ground whereas permitting every thing else to play the larger roles. By that time, it’ll be too late to return the rug if I don’t prefer it. But when it actually doesn’t work, possibly I can not less than promote it and proceed my search. For now, I’m simply so bored with space rugs.
Now if any of you come throughout the right rug and wish to ship the hyperlink my means, be happy! I’m at all times open to new concepts. However within the meantime, I’m simply planning on going this course.
I do suppose the creamy white wainscoting (which I’ll paint Behr Polar Bear like the entire remainder of the trim in our home) separating the headboard and the rug, together with all the opposite layers that separate them, will go a great distance in the direction of making them play nicer with one another. So, we’ll see the way it seems.
