Our House The Great Rug Hunt
I made the mistake of buying a cheap rug for my living room a few years ago. I haven’t been happy with how my Martha Stewart Astronomy Rug has held up, and apparently my cat Gatsby isn’t happy with it either. After years of not scratching on furniture or going outside the litter box, when we got this rug he immediately started doing all of the above – on this rug. That was my cue that I need to purchase a new one. I’ve held out as long as I possibly could and now I just have to make a decision!
Three years later and I’m not having any trouble finding things that will work…now I’m having trouble narrowing down from the fabulous options out there! What a good problem to have. Can you help me, puuuuhlease?

I think any of these rugs would work! They are all beautiful. I have a soft spot for those tones of blue and gray since it’s the color palette I have in my house. I particularly like the Kilim Diamond and the Surya Jill Rosenwalk. Let us know what you decide on!
