Mini Before & After

I have a mini before and after for you guys today from one of my e-decorating clients.

Lisa emailed me asking to help her find a new rug for her living room.

Here is the before:



Then she found this AMAZING chair from Craigslist (with perfect peacock blue upholstery). Lucky girl!



Here are the options I sent her:



She had asked for a neutral but interesting rug for the space. I picked out mostly neutral rugs, but I had to throw in the peacock. And I have to admit - it was my favorite :)

I'm so glad she went with it! Here is the after:



LOVE!! The rug is from here. Lisa also has a cute blog, check it out here!

The rug has such a big impact -- love it! And those baby blue lamps are super-cute!

As I was reading I was thinking peacock for sure! Then I scrolled down and saw it there - love it! It pulls the room together and looks fabulous with that chair. Why is it that I only find ratty old crap on craigslist?! NOT FAIR! :-)
