So I bet yesterday’s “thankful for rugs” post left some of you doubtful. I bet you saw some of those big bold rugs and thought I had lost my mind! So today I am going to show you a design board that was created around one of those rugs. I think it is gorgeous and I hope it restores your faith in me:) Just the other day I read an excerpt from an interview with Amber Lewis of Amber Interiors and she said something that really resonated with me:
{I’d have to say that the hardest part of my job is getting clients to trust that sometimes, I can’t explain every detail of what I’m going to do to their homes — I just have to do it. If I try to explain too much, I start sounding like a lunatic without a clue. A vision is always in my head so having a great and trusting client always results in the best end product.}
I have to say that so far I have had great experiences but sometimes I can tell that when I am explaining my “vision” to someone, they are totally lost or scared or both. To me it all makes sense because I can see the finished product in my head but to the other person it sounds like mumble jumble. Sometimes I want to say just what Amber did above…”I swear it will look good, I just can’t explain it!” So this room is my “visual explanation” of one of those crazy rugs yesterday. I know it still won’t be everyones style but maybe (just maybe) someone will love it.
I bet that crazy green animal skin rug wasn’t even the first thing you looked at now was it?! I picture this rug in a room with a little bit of brass and a lot of coziness. Its definitely a rug that needs to be layered over another to give it a more casual vibe. I also love using emerald as the main color in a family room because it is unexpected but still not too over-the-top. I chose accessories that would play off of the boho feel of the rug so vintage trays as wall art, plush fur poufs, an antiqued brass floor lamp and a rustic desk used as a console table. I can picture lots more to this room from other angles as well as an entire house with the same feel. Makes me want to grab a comfy throw and read a book in one of those chairs. Sounds similar to how I am picturing my Thanksgiving holiday!
Thoughts?? Would you ever consider using this rug? If so how would you style the room?
