First, I’m talking about ditching shampoo, and now these super bohemian rugs… maybe CT is warranted for calling me a hippie... This past weekend, the kilim rugs really caught my eye with their bold colors and patterns at the Brooklyn Flea Market. So much so, that I am still thinking about them 3 days later.
When a piece of home décor is so bold I sometimes worry that I will get sick of it or that it will dictate a certain style that I will also get sick of. With today being hump day home makeover, I did some digging for some kilim rug inspiration, and think I’m even more obsessed with these rugs than before. And convinced that I have to have one. These rugs definitely make a statement and scream culture, class and spirit to me, but are also surprisingly versatile. My favorite combination is a orangey pink pattern with some dark accents in the print against a dark wood floor. The mix of colors lets the rug pop without overdoing the space.

You definitely should get one. I wish I could have one now. I never really noticed rugs before recently and now that I do, I think the one in my living room is so ugly. Plus, why are rugs so darn expensive? Totally thinking about getting a new one too.
ReplyDeleteThey definitely are expensive. I lucked out with my current rugs getting them on sale on One Kings Lane or Lulu & Georgia . I didn't even ask the price on the rugs at the Brooklyn Flea, but might go back and check this weekend. Otherwise, I'll be scouting Etsy!
DeleteHow cool are those? Definitely give a nice pop of color in those neutral spaces :-)
ReplyDeleteAgreed, I really love the first two spaces with the bright rug against the dark floor boards.
