I like the first Caribbean, but really love the second. Would you consider using the braided rug in the entry, and getting the Caribbean for the LR? The braided rug seems to fight with the furniture arrangement. It feels like a narrow strip running down the middle of the furniture, rather than encompassing all the pieces in the central space of the room. Perhaps the Carribean could be sized so that the rug could turn the other way in the LR, and both the chairs would sit on it, the trunk opposite, and the large cabinet would be connected with it as well. I think all the wood furniture in there could also use the interest of the colors in the rug, whereas the entry is just a pass-through and perhaps needs less pattern and interest. Or use the braided rug in the office, where it would seem a perfect fit turned the other way. Then use the Caribbean in the LR, and get a simple sisal with a solid blue trim for the entry hall. You have a very pretty home, cheery and welcoming.

I really like that rug pattern and would choose the lower right sample. I like any of the choices with the darker contrast color in the pattern. So that would be top and bottom left and right. Not crazy about that top middle with the contrasts in the LR rug

I think a rug under the table would be awkward relative to the traffic patterns. If you get a rug big enough to not look stupidly small, I think that it will partially spill into the traffic paths. Partially spilling over is bad because is could be a trip and fall hazard. I think the curve of the wall and the stairway prevent using a rug that will cover the area under the table AND enough of the walkway. I do agree that a small threshold rug would be nice and practical.

Saxa I don’t think those water fountains goes with our rustic/farm theme. I think they are to contemporary for my taste. Also my three cats would have a field day with them. They love playing in water. Thank you for your suggestion! Much appreciated Daisy and Val as stated in my OP we are going to lower the tv. It is too high as it is. The plan is to remove the mantle and lower it about 5” and then lower the tv. Everyone in our house is in agreement that putting it on the side of the fireplace would be ackward for anyone sitting on the couch in front of the windows. And yes the cable will be put inside the fireplace. We specifically added a wall plug behind the stone. We just haven’t gotten to it yet. I’m still looking for that perfect rug!
