TJ Maxx Rug

I found this rug at TJ Maxx and had to have it for our second bathroom.  We're working with a Turkish theme, and I thought it was perfect.  This photo does not do the color justice.  It's a beautiful wool rug - and it cost about the same as a regular bath rug!

Persian-Style Rugs

Pottery Barn has some great Persian-style rugs among their offerings. When my husband traveled to Turkey in June, he learned all about rug weaving. Pottery Barn's versions seem pretty authentic and are imported. (Perhaps I'll have to find out if they're really Turkish!)

Friday Featured Art: Turkish Rugs

On my husband's recent trip to Turkey, he learned all about Turkish rug weaving. Here is one of the beautiful rugs that he was shown. Some of them have hundreds of knots per square inch, and one rug that he saw cost $100,000! They are very beautiful.
