I am slowly working on our upstairs hallway (landing) and am trying to find the 'rug' that is going is going to make shout, "That's it!". I can't blame you if you have forgotten and are asking, "What hallway is she talking about?". Remember?
I recently ordered this beauty from Rugsusa.
I wanted to add yellow to the space because the upstairs hallway/landing leads directly into our bathroom. If the bathroom door is open, you will have direct view of the window coming up the stairs and I'm using this fabric for a fixed roman shade.
I like the yellow with the blue against an otherwise all neutral (beige, brown & white) backdrop. I wasn't too impressed with the rug. The yellow isn't a bright yellow (like the picture); it's more a mustard yellow. For $145, it left me saying "ho-hum" and the hand woven material wasn't cutting it for me. So, back to the drawing board.
Here are some other options I'm considering. I'm now thinking more of a neutral color for the rug and will incorporate the yellow via accessories.
A:
Think the light blue would complement the navy blue in the roman shade fabric.
B:
C:
Love the pattern below. It is very similar to the tile pattern we will have on our bathroom floor (Daltile's 2" hexagon).
D:
Love the faux bois - such a great neutral.
E:
I brought home a sample of Dash Albert's circle fret rug and loved it!! It is just pricey.
F:
So, what are your thoughts? Any favorites? Should I try other colors? Do I seem desperate for help?? Well, I am!! :)
Have a great weekend everyone!! And, thanks again for all your help!!
e e e e e!!! So cool....so neutral, still. Definitely my vote!
ReplyDeleteGreat choices! My favorites are B & F. Can't wait to see what you decide!
ReplyDeleteI like "D"... I would be afraid that some of the taupe/beige combos would be too matchy, matchy with the walls??? But, that's just me! xo -Chris
ReplyDeleteWhat a tough decision--all of the choices are beautiful! I like B, C, and F and can tell you first hand that C is a great rug. I own it in gray and have been very pleased with it.
ReplyDeleteIt's so disappointing when you have a plan and it ends up not working out because of one element. I like all of the rug selections but I think I'd avoid using another blue since the fabric you chose is blue. How about a color that will contrast instead?
ReplyDeleteOh no. I'm sorry that your plan didn't work. Yellow sounds like such a great idea. All of the choices are beautiful. I'm wondering about something black/geometric like option D.
ReplyDeleteDecisions...

Hmm...tough! I'm with you in that I like a more neutral rug with fun yellow accessories. I do love A and E!
ReplyDeleteI'm for option E! So disappointing when you order something and it's not quite what it looked like. Be sure to tell us what you end up with. :D Erica
ReplyDeleteSo many great choices, no idea how you are going to pick just one. Sorry I'm totally no help, but I love them all!
ReplyDeleteOh bummer that yellow rug looks so cool in the photo too! I'm kinda leaning towards f!
ReplyDeleteHope you had a great weekend doll!
Luvs!
I'd go with e as well. i love faux bois. having a neutral hallway will allow all the upstairs rooms, including the bathroom, to show off their color and character.
