Black and White Striped Rug

Julie-Ann · #1 21-08-2010, 06:53 PM

We are getting very close to finally finishing Mr17's study. I had to go with solid black curtains instead of the lovely striped ones. So the room is needing that final pop. I think a black and white striped rug will be the piece de resistance. But do you think I can find one

. There was one at Ikea but it wasn't the bold stripes I am looking for. Has anyone seen any black and white striped rugs?

I LOVE the sounds of what you have done in the room.

I have seen black and white swirl rugs but not striped ones.....

Cant wait to see the end pictures!

Thanks Tammy- it is getting there slowly. Although there was some rapid stacking of books on shelves yesterday after I had a little hissy fit.

So far the walls are white, black curtains across 1 wall, black brown bookcases on another wall and a very large L-shaped black brown desk. The the black glass will sit above the desk. So you can see it needs a strong contrast of the black and white in a rug and some desk accessories. I might have to let my fingers do the walking

Yipee the New York rugs a goer

. Mr17 loved it. DH said he didn't care (he was busy with work). Mmmm- whilst DH is in the non caring mood perhaps I should order a Zebra striped rug for me too

??? Do you think he would notice?

Love the chairs but we are going to go look for something more comfortable and supportive. We figure he will be spending a lot of time sitting in it over the coming years.
