Rugs - Check

Why are any sort of rugs so difficult for me?  If you recall it took me MONTHS to order a rug from Horchow for the pool table room.  In all honesty, I found the perfect rug on day 1 of looking but the price was high.  Jeremy said something like ‘you are on heroin if you think we are buying that’.  Fast forward a few months and he changed his tune and let me order the rug.  Moral to the story?  If I wait long enough and talk about something long enough Jeremy will say screw it and let me order what I would like. 

Sadly, this time didn’t go quite as planned.  I am happy with the order that I placed, but I am anxious to see if I will still be this happy when they arrive (who knows when that will be).  I didn’t want those ugly scratchy door mats that I see everywhere and I didn’t want to spend $100 either.  I needed 3!  I went to Ballard Designs and ordered this outdoor rug in the lighter blue for the entry way.

Then I ordered two of these in the neutral tones for the back doors.  I initially wanted something yellow and blue to tie in the colors in the pool table room, but there were already two different patterns of blue and I didn’t want to over load the area.  Plus, this rug was available in a much smaller size.  So here is what I ended up getting.

Hope they come in soon!!
