I’ve been shopping online for a rug for our bedroom for weeks!
The room is already sporting a dark gray accent wall + pale blue ceiling.
The walls + trim will be white,
+ I want to add a lot of blue accessories.
The pine floor has been sanded + stained a nice, warm brown.
The room measures 9’10” by 11″,
so of course, I am having math anxiety
+ cannot decide between a 4’x6′ or a 5’x7′ rug.
Help!?

Oh, never mind about that — for now, anyway.
Let’s talk about what I might order!
I’ve whittled down my favorites to these 2 rugs from Overstock.com.
Notice the blue + gray combination — excellent for my color plan!
They are both from the brand Safaveih’s Patina collection.
As you can see, the name Patina refers to the rug’s aged appearance,
which is a ‘thing’ now — new-but-old-looking rugs!
Perfect!
These are cotton rugs + soft,
which is kind of a must-have for our G.O.’s bedroom.
Now all we have to do is decide which rug + which size.
Stay tuned!

I like number 1, but they are both lovely.

HI NATALIE!
Thanks for voting! LOL — I just showed this blog post to G.O. + when I asked him which 1 was his favorite, he said he thought that they were the same rug! HA! Men!

Love the blue in the area rug! You used blue in the bedroom in your house on the river, and it was gorgeous, but restful. (My memory of the picture you posted ~ how many years ago?)

Oh, Dolores — what a memory you have! We’d been in that house for a while when 9-11 happened. When I ask G.O. which of our 3 houses he likes the best, he always says the river house. I’m pretty sure the Dutch colonial is my fave. I LOVE IT!
