Apartment hunting went really well this weekend and we’re thisclose to signing our lease, subletting the unit from a couple looking to move immediately. We’re waiting for a few documents to come through, and then we’ll be set to move! So now comes the fun part – decorating a blank slate.
After falling in love with this rug from West Elm, I immediately launched into an intensive search for something much more affordable. This one from Overstock.com is similar enough in design, and although it’s not the sunny yellow I was after, the blue is much more boy-friendly.
I adore its bold patterns and goes-with-anything palette, but the price is what truly sold me. At $126.99, it’s a total steal that’s going to break up our white carpet, hide a multitude of sins through a high-traffic area, and create a cozy focal point in our sweet little home.
