A New Foyer Rug

Thanks to a very generous giveaway from Darlene, at Our Creative Life, I now have a snazzy new rug for our foyer. I jumped up and down with glee when I found out I had won this giveaway and quickly decided what I wanted, a black 4’ round rug with a zebra monogram. And I just love, love, love it! Thank you again, Darlene, for your generosity. It amazes me at the things that are given away in blogland and I’ve been fortunate enough to win several great prizes. But, I have to say, this one is the best so far!

It’s a perfect fit for our foyer.

What a way to welcome guests.

How do you like it? Me, I’m in love with it. Go and visit Darlene’s online store if you’d like a custom rug of your own.

Stop back by tomorrow! I’m ready to show off that newly painted dining room. I think you’re gonna love it.

    Oh Rhoda I love it! CONGRATS there girlie! 🙂 LOVE IT!
    Speaking of that new room you’re working on……
    I’m just wondering HOW that molding would do on DOORS? LOL I have some blah and I DO MEAN BLAH doors in my WHOLE HOUSE! As you know I am working on that beachy master bedroom of mine right now and I would love to make my doors look nicer! They’re those old wooden doors that are hollow inside and very plain! I was wondering if I could use the small molding and make the squares on the doors. Anyway playing around with that idea! LOL
