hopefully heath & i will be in a house very soon. when we do get in one i can't wait to decorate with my stuff that has been in storage for over a year, and new things.
we hate our current rug.
it was an inexpensive purchase for our apartment in nola & we loved the look. plain sisal.
but it gets sisal hair everywhere.
our first purchase in our new house will be a new rug.
these are some looks i'm really digging

i've been eyeing stripe/chevron stripes for about 4 years now. not sure if i will still love them when we get into a house, but the odds are looking good right now.
i'm going with either a cotton rug or an outdoor rug this time. i like the thin aspect of the sisals, but the others don't get the hair on you. neither do really expensive sisals.
