aktillery: I will definitely plan to check out TJ Maxx, Marshalls and Tuesday Morning before I order anything online. It does help to know in advance what will work or not. Your rug is very pretty there. lyban: I looked at that rug which is pretty also. WIth the 5' rug, though, when we stand in front of our sinks, then one foot would be on and the other off the rug. Since I found the 6' rugs at overstock, I think I'd take a chance on one of those before getting a 5' rug. I think a 7' rug could work if it looks really good. I think I might try an online chat with one of the folks on the HD website and see if they can recommend any in that size since I can't narrow down the runner size so much in the search function. shee: I want something more plush in our bathroom because we're pretty careful; in the girl's bath I am considering that indoor/outdoor one as I'd be kidding myself to think I won't need to clean it as old rugs in that bathroom I've been washing every 2 weeks or so. Also, the print looks more "fun" for them plus a tad busy so the makeup stains, etc. hopefully won't show so much. I've tried talking to my DD to be more careful, but so far, not much luck though we have made her responsible for cleaning it. My 9-year-old DD is much cleaner and more systematic than her. I think she has inherited my decorating gene, but it's skipped over the 16-year-old. She more like her Dad, huge into sports, science, etc.... and makeup (not like the Dad)!

It doesn’t look like you need a rug there, but if you are just looking to add some color, an oriental style area rug would look nice, IMO. Sheepskin I think would be too small and not really relate to anything else in the room.

The first rug is ivory beigh shades and the rug with squares are ivory and gray. So I think the first one one would be a better match. I’ve searched online a lot but didn’t see something simple that I liked. But if you see anything nice I would love to take a look. I’m planning on ordering the rug tomorrow.

So as you all know it takes me years to make a decision! I haven’t purchased the hillsby rug after reading some of the reviews stating it’s cheaply made and the colors are more of an orange and fish is color. Since then I’ve spotted this rug at pottery barn and like it. I’m wondering if someone might be able to do a mock up to see if the colors would go in my room. What do you think?
