My Increasingly Frustrating Search For A Bedroom Area Rug

I’m in search of something that may go together with my colours — darkish teal, inexperienced, and orange. So after wanting and searching, this one from Boutique Rugs popped up on an commercial whereas I used to be scrolling Instagram, and it appeared to have all the proper colours.

I truly actually appreciated this rug! I held off on shopping for it for a few days and saved on looking out, however I saved coming again to this one as a result of it appeared like the proper one. I wasn’t discovering the rest that got here even shut, so I made a decision to present this one a strive.

And whereas I do know a lot of you expressed that you just don’t like that vintage look, I find it irresistible. I lived in Turkey and visited fairly a number of rug shops whereas I used to be there, and I cherished watching these store keepers flip by way of their stack and stacks of vintage (and likewise 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 cloth (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 can 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 cloth to cowl up the middle medallion since that gained’t present. And all of teh colours appears to go properly, though I’ve to take challenge with the truth that this rug is known as Inexperienced Nisa Classic, and but you need to get hold of the inexperienced within the rug. It’s there, however I do not know why “inexperienced” is within the identify when clearly, it’s one of many least represented colours in the whole rug. There’s so little of it that when you aren’t in search of it, you’ll miss it.

And all the colours of the headboard cloth are within the rug. I put that cloth over within the nook since they gained’t be proper subsequent to one another within the completed room. They’ll be separated by draperies, bedding, nightstands.

I believe one challenge is that the rug, in individual, has a decidedly extra Southwestern really feel to it than it did within the web site pictures. In reality, 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 assume I might have picked this up in New Mexico as an alternative of Turkey.

So, I don’t know. I’m uninterested in in search of rugs. I really feel like there’s nowhere else to look except I need 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. Despite the fact that all the colours appear form of proper, it’s simply not a reasonably rug (to me).

Now if any of you come throughout the proper rug and need to ship the hyperlink my approach, be happy! I’m all the time open to new concepts. However within the meantime, I’m simply planning on going this course.

I do assume 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 good distance in the direction of making them play nicer with one another. So, we’ll see the way it seems.
