Who doesn’t love a comfy, warm, and luxurious rug right under their toes? We’ve partnered up with Flokati Rugs, a fabulous dealer of plush, colorful, and comfortable wool rugs to give you the scoop on why Flokati rugs are your number one must have in your home this New Year:

These rugs are a definite style staple and are not only trendy, but are also very durable and built to last. The cozy rugs were originally made in Greece, several hundred years ago by the creation of shepherds taking care of sheep in the hills. I love the long, deep shag pile that keeps my toes super warm on chilly evenings. They are also great rugs to sit, or lay on while watching TV!

It’s always nice to have an authentic, hand made work of art in your home. As a big lover of Persian rugs, I know how to appreciate a good piece of art or furniture. Flokati Rugs are made from organic, New Zealand wool that is shipped from Greece and is hand woven. It feels soft, and fluffy to the touch, and is a great way to stay eco-friendly with your décor.

These fluffy wool rugs come in a variety of different colors and sizes. My favorite is the traditional off-white color as it goes well with any décor and provides a natural, classic look. I’m also a huge fan of cowhides although they don’t keep you warm in the colder seasons. It’s a great idea to switch it up with a lush wool rug to keep you warm and help keep in the warmth.

Wool rugs are easy to care for and clean: give them a periodic shake, or comb them with a soft wide toothcomb and your rug with fluff right back up. You can also gently wash them and line dry to ensure a clean, soft, and brand new rug once again! To get your hands on these gorgeous rugs, you can visit Flokati Rug Express and easily order the right size, color, and style for your home.

Heat up Your Home with a Sexy, Fierce Red Color https://betterdecoratingbible.com/2014/01/09/heat-up-your-home-with-a-sexy-fierce-red-color/ https://betterdecoratingbible.com/2014/01/09/heat-up-your-home-with-a-sexy-fierce-red-color/#comments Thu, 09 Jan 2014 12:20:46 +0000 http://betterdecoratingbible.com/?p=7086 Image 1 Tobi Fairely

Valentine’s Day is soon approaching, making it the perfect time to decorate your home with the bold color of red. Red is a daring, and romantic shade to use during this time of year with a high-impact factor on your décor. Roll out a luxurious red rug, pile on a few fluffy red pillows to snuggle next to, light a few candles, and you’ve got yourself the perfect Valentine’s Day ambience!

Red is a super sexy color this season, and warms up a room from gloomy to hot, daring, and inviting. Make to use this color with caution though – too much can swallow up a room, especially if it lacks natural sunlight. Start out with small accessories sprinkled throughout your room, or go bold with a red velvet sofa.

Red accents draw attention to other elements used throughout your room, and won’t overwhelm some of your existing pieces like great architecture or even a stunning view.

A sizzling red rug can work wonders and give an uplifting effect after a long, dreary winter season. A quick trip to my fave rug outlet, RugsCentre and I have officially got my problem solved – a gorgeous Persian rug now works miracles in my home office.

Before introducing a bold red hue for your walls or furniture, first make sure your room can handle it. If you choose to go really bold, a space with high ceilings and lots of natural light can help tone down the hue.
