Rug Painting Progress

Remember 100 years ago two months ago when I posted about painting a rug I bought at Ikea? I've made progress.

Taping is the lame part of the project for sure. I taped. I painted. I taped. I painted. 

And then I finished! Well, I'm thisclose. I just have to go back and fill in any pesky little white spots where they're supposed to be coral. 

Next I get to do the fun part, rip off the tape! Woo hoo! I'll be back tomorrow with the full tutorial and final reveal.

Living Room Rug

I found a rug I like at Home Goods! Assuming it's still there, I might buy it next week. I've attached a picture that shows the rug on top and a picture of the living room floor on bottom. What do you think? According to Anthony's reading of Walden, Thoreau would tell me to go back and visit the rug to see if it makes me happier each time. If I had enough time to go willy nilly rug gazing you bet I would!
