Rug ideas for bohemian/vintage/MCM living room?
Comments (36)So ended up with this one! Was originally thinking a more neutral color like the old one would be better but I like the richness of this.. plus the rug is SO soft and comfy.. will be great for naps in front of the fireplace... :). (Note this is the photoshopped photo, looks better in real life!)

Comments (20)Catalina has beautiful rugs but they are pricey because of their high quality and knot count. However, you can find good and long-lasting hand-knotted rugs at more affordable prices that will still look great and last for years on esalerugs, overstock.com and ebay. A larger rug will have a huge impact on the appearance of your living room, more than a small but finer rug. I recently purchased this one on ebay for a very reasonable price. Because of the large, simple tribal design the knot count is not that high, but if you buy another Persian-type rug it will be denser and I think you'll be satisfied with the quality. In my mind, when it comes to rugs go big or go home....See MorePaint color for north facing room with red Persian rug??
Comments (22)Thanks! The curtains are always opened to let more light in. The only reason they were closed in that first photo was because we hadn't moved in yet. The curtains have to stay. I bought the fabric in Greece and they are custom made. I took the arm cover off the chair and I put that and the curtains up against the Samplize sample of EG that I have here. It looks like it could work, but I'll have to go upstairs into that room after the workers leave and look at it in there. I know it's hard for you guys to give me completely accurate advice without seeing it in person, but I do appreciate all of your feedback! It might be worth looking at some more creamy colors to compare and see what looks best before deciding....See MoreHonolulu MCM living room layout…
Comments (5)Really important to decide on the layout before deciding on the type of seating to buy. 1) I think centering the seating area (with a LARGE dog friendly rug to ground) and a LARGE coffee table is the way to go, placing sectional facing the sliding door with LARGE lol art above. 2) Imagine below, but locations of doors and console (which will house tv) are exchanged. 3) Your low rust seating opposite sectional (vs chairs in picture) and add two really interesting chairs at this end facing tv. Highly suggest you find an on line room planner and input room’s dimensions and structural components, which will make the decisions much easier....See MorePatricia Colwell Consulting
