This weekend I finally mustered up the courage to buy a rug for my living room. After much thought, I decided to go with a Jute rug over a cowhide or beni. I found a VERY reasonably priced 100% Jute at World Market and it fits just perfectly in my space! I have been slowly but surely collecting new items for this room, but the process has slowed down a bit due to busy schedules and budgeting. Below I have some loft updates, in case you missed the before pictures you can check them out here.
I still have many ideas I would to execute in the months to come, stay tuned as I transform this space!
I can't wait to add more color to this monochromatic theme. I need an accent chair, two poufs, and more pillows to complete the look.
I am lucky enough to live directly across the street from a flower shop! I went a little flower crazy on Saturday, and I don't regret it...
I added a new coffee table book to my collection, "Its All Good" by Gwyneth Paltrow. There are some great recipes in here!
This gorgeous bronze vase is a Nate Berkus from Target. I am in love with his Target collection!
Flowers in the kitchen :)
If you are local to the Bay Area, go try Blue Bottle Coffee. It is excellent- Scott and I are obsessed!
Scott and I enjoyed some Gentleman Jack bourbon on Saturday while watching the documentary "Helvetica". Both the bourbon and the documentary I would highly recommend :)
Hope you all had a great weekend and cheers to a great week ahead!
Love Jute rugs. I have one underneath my kitchen table and just a little FYI my dog had an accident on it and I figured it was ruined but took it outside and hosed it off and it was good as new! I was just thinking today how I need to get Gwyneth's new cook book! Those flowers are gorgeous!

I like your rug pick! Very classy. Is it cozy to walk on, though? That would be my only concern.

Jules- Surprisingly it is comfortable! That was a worry of mine as well when I went the Jute route :)
DeleteGreat rug! It's so smart to just build over time. You'll end up getting pieces you really love instead of settling. xx
ReplyDeleteLove the dark wood.
