Layering Rugs (and a New Gig)

 

Our bedroom carpet was in perfect condition when we moved in last summer.  A year later?  Not so much. (Are my kids the only ones who feel the need to come into our room and make a grand announcement before they get sick in the middle of the night?  I’ll let you figure out why we need a rug in there.)

Since we are determined to get the good out of this carpet and replacing it isn’t in the budget for now, I decided to use this natural rug that I had in storage.  For Fall, I thought it would be cozier to layer it with my faux cowhide

I also think it helps to tie in the black and white pillows.

Speaking of rugs, you can find my post on how to choose the right area rug for your room over on the “Getting Fresh with Oreck” blog today.  I’m excited to be the interior design contributor for Oreck’s new blog and will be sharing design tips there each month.
