Yep, it’s true love, the kind that lives forever. I mean, just look – can you blame me for falling head over heels for this sucker?
He’s got it all. Fun colors? Check. Lively stripes? Check. Ridiculously affordable? Double check.
I made him mine for a grand total of 36 bucks (including shipping!!) from Dash & Albert. What a score!! This little rug is now bringing a much-needed dose of personality and life to our newly remodeled kitchen. I love how the earthy colors of the rug play off the cream and chocolate tones in our granite (and looks pretty great with the mossy green backsplash – sorry no picture!), and will work equally well in the summer and winter. And no more puddles from drippy dishes on our hardwood floors . . . ah, life is good.
I’m also digging those cute little magenta cone flowers by the sink – they’re from our backyard, and I’m constantly (and pleasantly surprised) by the fun flowers that I find popping up back there. Kudos to the former homeowner!
But I digress – back to the rug! If we ever want to switch things up, our snazzy rug would look great in our entryway by the front door for a little splash of color. Recognize that fab oversized glass vase?
Found any awesome deals lately that just made your day? Got any advice on where I can find a rug that’s just as cute (and hopefully as affordable) for our living room? Spill the beans!

That rug is really cute – I love it!
I actually just bought a rug at Target for our dining room. The chairs should be reupholstered in the next week or two – I’m hoping it’s all going to go together. It was really affordable, and I love it!
I ordered a rug from Overstock.com the other day! With $2.95 shipping total ON ANYTHING you order, you can’t beat a deal from them. Check it out!
Cute rug! If you’re looking for some more stripes, Dash & Albert has some great options for reasonable prices. They also have a huge array of colorways/sizes.
My great deal recently was a $110 handmade porcelain vase from Polly George that I got off 2Jane for just $30!! Very exciting. :)
Where did you get the rug?! I LOVE it!! I’m thinking it will look great in my kitchen too :-)
Oops, just saw the last line – I’m heading Dash & Albert’s website! Thanks :-)
I saw the C&B Moorish tile rug on ebay lately going for cheaper than what it would have been in the store. Although cheaper, still not that cheap in my book and therefore I’m still living with my rug-that-is-to-small-for-my-livingroom. Good luck finding one, I’m also in dire need of one.
I finally bought a FLOR runner for our entryway and I love it! It was so easy to assemble, feels great underfoot, and really makes the entryway feel “done”. You can check it out here:

Where did you get that glass floor vase? Thanks.
Marie,
I am in LOVE with that floor vase – it was a $30 steal from Hobby Lobby a few weeks ago. Here’s a post about it: http://itsgreattobehome.net/2009/05/12/great-finds-from-hobby-lobby/. Hope that helps!

Great, thank you. There is a Hobby Lobby pretty close to me.
