CSN Stores Rug Review

Honestly, I didn't mean to leave you in blog-space. I meant to post sooner, but it has been a busy and wonderful summer. Where have I been?


Yale Commencement in CT
tons of tennis
Taylor Swift Concert,ND State Fair


Thanks for all the great suggestions on the rug. I ended up going with a rug that I hadn't pictured for all of you. The main reason I went with this particular rug is that it is an indoor/outdoor rug and can be washed by hosing it down. With two dogs, (and will be getting another one in two weeks!), being able to easily clean the rug is a must. Another reason is that the rug is black and cream and can be easily used in the new sun room, (stay tuned).

I was THRILLED when I received the rug. It came wrapped in plastic, and safely packaged. The texture, feel, weaving- all perfect. I think it works well in the kitchen dining room and adds to the eclectic feel of my home. If you need a rug, I suggest you visit CSNRugs.com.

Update: I've chosen white textured sheers for the formal dining room. I'll have pics up soon!
I hope all of you have had a great summer.

Blessings,
Ele

Wow- from Yale commencement to Detroit Lakes- that's quite a range. I've never been to Yale, but I love Detroit Lakes, and the lakes in Ottertail County- I can hardly believe summer is 2/3 over...

What a beautiful rug!!!

Hello Victoria,
Little House on the Prairie was my favorite show when I was a little girl too. I wonder if we're the same age?

I'm sorry you had a bad day yesterday and I hope that today has ben better.
Thank you for stopping by my Blog and leaving such sweet comments.

I will be putting up another post as SOON as I can get my hands on Romantic Homes Magazines Annual Bed and Bathroom issue, which has featured my Pillows in it.

Have a great week,
Aimee

Hi Ele, I love that rug and did when I first saw it. It looks really great and to be able to hose it down is a huge plus.

Sounds like you are having a great summer and doing lots of fun stuff.
Have a great evening.
