Feizy Finds: Area Rug Relief!

I knew it was going to be a good trip to Las Vegas Market when the first showroom
I walked into had these!!!


Even more exciting is the fact that I carry this line (and receive good pricing:) of rugs by Feizy.
I have to say, I have not been pushing this brand lately because all my samples
are a few years old... and -
they make me tired!


Not any more! I'm ready to update my line with fresh new finds and here's the kicker...

#1 These specifically are power loomed with a silk blend
(which I typically never buy- but starting now!) 

#2 Stocked in Dallas and pricepoint is superb!


I'm happy to say that my clientle is following my lead and stretching out
of their comfort zones...just a bit:).

You can add a transitional rug in a more traditional setting!


Don't forget area rugs in kid's spaces for a pop of color


Gray is the new beige... these would be perfect in your new family room!

  • The above sizes are obviously for reference only, simply because; although rugs may come in standardized sizes, rooms do not.
  • Also, keep in mind that the above chart is helpful if you want to follow the 18" to 24" of bare floor showing around a room sized rug "rule of thumb".
  • Most people feel that 18" of bare floor is the minimum around a rug, but that there is really no maximum amount of bare floor that should show.
  • If it is a very small room (such as a foyer or entry way) you can get away with having less than 18" of bare floor showing around the rug - possibly just 8".

Here's a Feizy rug in action~ one of my favorite rooms we installed a few years ago.
The transitional design adds that "twist" to her classic look!

Success!

On to my hostess duties! I mentioned that I was the Hostess for the Conference

With my knee issue, I could not get off the stage!  
Ms. High Maintenance asked nicely for a solution... and viola! Done!


I fulfilled my hostess duties... and then fired my friend Barbara from the photographer's role!
