Area Rugs #1

A great place to find contemporary and affordable rugs is overstock. we had a short lead time and a small budget and wool rugs can get very pricey so i crossed my fingers and purchased all the rugs for the living room and bedrooms from overstock. i was very happy with the way they all came out, the colors where fairly true to what i saw on my computer screen and the quality was great. although it takes time to scour through the not so great rugs it is definitely worth it because there are truly some gems. i almost always prefer natural fibers especially wool since it just feels below are a few of my favorites.

My favorite things #1

Room Divider
Lately I have been falling back in love with gold. this beautiful screen would accent any room and bring a bit of style to a minimalist setting.
Antler Chandelier
This antler chandelier combines a sleek modern feel with rustic antlers. It would make a great piece to add to either a bohemian, modern or rustic living room. It is available at a fantastic store in Williamsburg called Future Perfect.
