Outdoors in.
Posted by on May 11, 2010
I’m so excited to have outdoor space this summer in my new apartment. Barbecuing and sunshine are lovely and all, but what I’m really excited about? Another space to decorate!
Everyone is always trying to “bring the outside in” but I’m fully prepared to bring the inside out and make it a homey little addition to the rest of the indoor-rooms. I think adding an outdoor rug would make the space look much more ‘room’-like and am surprised by all of the great options that go beyond the usual jute rugs.
Pier 1 has some super bright options that are astonishingly inexpensive:
And I love the colors of these reversible rugs from Living Comforts:
I need to narrow some furniture choices and start making some decisions, moving day will be here before I know it!
Thanks for your comment today! Glad to see I’m not the only one. Why shouldn’t our expectations be high? We take time and thought into planning their birthday surprises. Ah! I wasn’t even bothered with the gift. It was something that I wanted, but I was sad that I didn’t have a card, it wasn’t wrapped, because he didn’t actually buy it and I just got a print out of it with in folded up. If it had been presented in a different manner all would have been fine, because he normally does really good with guest.
Ah vent over! I just had to get it out there. Never thought I would get hurtful comments from people. So happy you’ve felt my pain.
Now on to your post! I love all the rugs you picked. Those from living comfort have been on my mind non stop for a couple of weeks now!
love the rugs- I wish I had a nice outdoor space to use them in. Maybe the sidewalk?
