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 a whole bunch of rugs on-line, and it’s simply so troublesome to see these little footage and know the way these will actually translate to a 9′ x 12′ space rug in a bed room.
I’m in search of something that can 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 suitable colours.
I really actually favored 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 right one. I wasn’t discovering the rest that got here even shut, so I made a decision to provide this one a strive.
And whereas I do know a lot of you expressed that you just don’t like that vintage look, I adore it. 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 via 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 appear 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 part out and see the way it appeared collectively. Effectively, 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 material 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 concern with the truth that this rug is named Inexperienced Nisa Classic, and but you need to get your hands on the inexperienced within the rug. It’s there, however I do not know why “inexperienced” is within the title when clearly, it’s one of many least represented colours in the complete rug. There’s so little of it that in the event 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 gained’t be proper subsequent to one another within the completed room. They’ll be separated by draperies, bedding, nightstands.
I feel one concern is that the rug, in individual, has a decidedly extra Southwestern really feel to it than it did within the web site photographs. Actually, in these photographs, 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 may have picked this up in New Mexico as a substitute 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 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 an instantaneous 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 part is within the room, with the entire varied layers, from the wallpaper, wainscoting, headboard, draperies, bedside tables, bedding, and so on., the rug gained’t really be an enormous participant within the room. It’ll simply add some delicate shade to the ground whereas permitting every part 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 no 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 need to ship the hyperlink my manner, be happy! I’m at all times open to new concepts. However within the meantime, I’m simply planning on going this route.
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 good distance in the direction of making them play nicer with one another. So, we’ll see the way it seems.
