Please help me pick family room and entryway rugs...
Comments (22)I agree that the first one definitely sounds like the winner. What about the second one in the entry in a different size? I was hunting around online to try and find a good example of what you're trying to create and stumbled upon this: https://www.houzz.com/magazine/how-to-choose-the-right-rug-for-your-entryway-stsetivw-vs~527859-to-Choose-the-Right-Rug-for-Your-Entryway I thought there were some great tips on choosing the right size and style for your entry. I can't wait to see what it all looks like -your place sounds lovely. Please be sure to post a follow up....See MoreNeed help selecting an area rug for living room please
Comments (8)I have at least ten Oriental rugs of different sizes, and they do go with nearly every style. I would pick one with several different colors in your room, warm and cool, to set off all that light furniture in your beautiful space. Put one in the dining room, hall, family room, bedroom, wherever you have bare floors. With all your light wood rich and varied colors will look wonderful and give life and depth to your spaces....See MoreArea rug to update living room, please help
Comments (12)Beverly, Thanks for your comments. You are correct, the recliner was his from 20 years ago but he is so done with it. I am the one who wouldn’t part w it because I spent so much time w my 2 boys in that recliner when they were babies lol. You just make my husband a very happy man today - the recliner will be gone lol. I also agree w you the loveseat might need to move down. The funny thing is the location you suggested is the exact location I had it before the whole area rug diploma started. We had the loveseat more toward the center and used to hide all those toys behind the loveseat. Since the kids are a bit older now, we just can’t help but push the loveseat all the way up to reclaim our space. As you can see from the photo I moved it down. The only thing bothers me is that fire place is off center focal point in this layout... Also would you suggest do a separate seating area towards the top of the room? We used to set it as a play area, it totally empty now...should we move the console by the window down and put a pouf or some low seating bench there instead? Thanks again for your input....See MorePlease help me choose rug sizes for Dining Room/Living Room space
Comments (29)Sorry, not sure why the picture didn't post. Here it is again. RL, I like the round pendant and the pleated one in your first set of suggestions. Is that a Nelson bubble pendant? Also, I should have given a few dimensional details. The table is 36" wide at the ends, 40" wide in the center. Ceiling height is 92"....See MoreBeverlyFLADeziner
