Which rug do you like best for my space?
Comments (18)Thank you all for your opinions. I think I am going to go to pottery Barn to check the rugs out live.. @InteriorStylist-still haven't decided. I really like the last light but im nervous to commit. That first light (the rect. angular) was from Eth an allen and apparently they have a NO return policy on fixtures if they have been hung. I still have it because someday somewhere in my house I will find a place for it. @pps7i hope to get chairs in at some point..and blinds... and wall art. Ugh it never ends does it? @finz2left. The pillows were from RH on clearance a few years ago. Thanks again for all of your help. Once I see them live I will give you thea verdict....See MoreI am wondering what size rug to place in a 9 x 12 two-story foyer?

Comments (11)Thank you all for the advice--and encouragement. Groveraxel and Beverly--I really appreciate the mockups! Decoenthusiast: your information on sizing is especially helpful--just what I was looking for. I'm definitely going to get out my blue painters tape, that will help me visualize what size might look best. For now, I'm going to keep looking for the "perfect" rug. I'm in no hurry to replace the current rug, as I really like it for summer. Hard to see in the photos, but it has narrow silver ribbons running thru the warp--I like the little bit of sparkle. Thanks again--I'll be back for more advice, I'm sure!...See MoreRug size- interior designer input!
Comments (6)Thank you to everyone who made it through that painful description of my problem. There’s no furniture yet but here is a (likely unhelpful) photo of the empty room. It’s a very small living room, as you can see from the measurements, so my seating area is just a sofa opposite 2 chairs. There will be enough room for this furniture (plus a narrow coffee table and some small end tables and a table between the chairs) and there will be space to walk in and find a seat, but not room for much else. Quick clarification: I have ordered the sofa, coffee table, and 2 chairs, but they will take 3 months to arrive. I am waiting until all of this essential furniture is in the room make a decision on end tables/accent tables....See Moreljwjbw
