Walk on the wild side

I really like this rug.




Remember I mentioned that I needed to get a new rug for my desk area here




How do we all feel about this look



Yes?
No?
Maybe so?

    I love a rug with an all over pattern and a little on the "wild side" is fun. I love to see what you end up with!
    Love the new look here.

    I think it is super fun! I used to have a leopard print reading rug in my classroom when I used to teach. I loved it.

    If you like leopard print - then yes. It is SOOOOOO forgiving as a rug.

    I have a leopard print runner in our hallway. It's been down almost a year now, and still looks good. You can see it here:

    It would be fabulous. Go for it! BTW... I know someone that's going for the full carpet look, and I'm so jealous.

    I am a fan! looks great next to the orange on the bins too! It makes a statement but isn't overwhelming.

    Love the new look you have here too!

    I think it is great. I met with a rep from Stark Carpet last week and they had an antelope print I want (although it is probably not in my budget at the moment). I say go for it.

    I really like the carpet with the white, but the orange bins are throwing me off a bit.

    Only because I know you can handle it, I vote no:) Get that black and white chevron rug everyone has been blogging about from west elm. I like that better.

    Are you watching your favorite butta' face tonight!? I was going to text that too you, but I'm too lazy.

    I like this and totally think it would work...but I think Stephanie's idea is wonderful. I LOVE that chevron rug from west elm, it's delicious. I want to use it when I move back home.
