Melancholy Smile: I Love Our Rug

I Love Our Rug

Remember how I said I hated our rug? I really wanted to paint one like Miggy, but worried about it feeling painted. {We spend a lot of time on the living room floor.} So I thought about sponging RIT dye onto a stenciled pattern. Would it bleed through the lines? Then the large flat weave rug I planned to buy was sold out at IKEA, and..... well, I was just lazy.

So. I found this rug online, waited for it to be 30% off, then pounced.

I love it.
