Rugs A Million

So I've gone a bit crazy with the rug shopping. But there's nothing like a shaggy rug to brighten up a place, right?

The place is really feeling like home now. Mav built the coolest storage shed under the carport (more photos of that later) so we were able to move all the clutter out of the house and finally get tidied up and organised. We love this place.

Here are the rugs I've collected so far. I already showed you the green one in the lounge room, right? Here it is again, just so I can remind you of our amazing outlook. Who would know we were 6km from the city?!

This one was on sale at Ikea so I got it for my little study corner so it can double as my meditation space. Made good use of all the red cushions I turfed out of the lounge room!




We decided that we needed another green shaggy one for the bedroom so while we were at Ikea we got the same-same as the lounge-room.


But my absolute favourite is this fuschia one. The second I saw it I knew I had to have it. We've put it in the upstairs landing area, which is a funny kind of space that can't be used for much but totally needed a fuschia rug.

And from our bedroom facing out to the balcony...

How good is that rug? Eh? It's FAB isn't it?!!

I still need another rug for the 3rd bedroom and maybe one for the front entry to the house. Mav reckons it's ok - we'll just take out a 2nd mortgage to fund my rug fetish. Money well spent, I say.
