Rug
I think I may have found a rug I like, but need some opinions. I have a "welcome to the neighborhood" coupon from Pottery Barn and ordered 3 swatches. 2 of them came yesterday, and it looks like the third will come tomorrow. Once I get all three, I'll take pictures of them on the floor so you can get a sense of what they look like in my living room, but I'm leaning towards the "leaf" pattern (click here to see the pottery barn description/more pictures). It's the dark brown one, and at least in yesterday's end of the day light, it made the chairs in my living room look more brown and less green, and stood out nicely against all the colors in the floor. The "fern chenille" swatch that came, was nice, but the green border kind of blends into the floor color, making both of them look a bit washed out, but it does go nicely with the green of the chairs. I'm including pictures of all three so you can see what I'm looking at. I'm also open for other suggestions. Thanks!

Well,of course,I'm no help because I like all of them,at least the way they show up here. I'm surprised that the colors of the leaf one go with your stuff, but it's great if they do, 'cuz I love the pattern.
I honestly have no opinion whatsoever. That is probably to your advantage however. I can't believe you actually want to open this up to opinions from people like your brothers who have such incredibly poor decorating ability.
I will opinion... The brown leafy one. While I am very partial to green, I think the brown would look great at your imaginary house. Place some matching brown pillows on your "green" furniture and you have it all tied in together. And in conclusion, wool stands up to very well... Is it hand tied? Any Turkish traveler who has listened to EVERY RUG SALESMEN won't be a true friend unless she asked. Resse
