I've been slowly working on my living room/dining room makeover. One project leads to the next and it is coming along so well! I'm loving the new look of our house. Our house is small so the last few years we have been bombarded with kid clutter and trying to make the best use of our space. Now that the boys are getting a bit older, I actually have time to do a few projects.
I started with my new toy cabinets to reduce the clutter, then moved my computer to my new coat closet office. Those two things alone set the ball rolling for so many more improvements. Now that my living room was a living room again my old dull worn out area rug was an eye sore.
Lucky for me there is a fantastic company Mohawk Home with tons of fabulous area rugs to choose from. I had the opportunity to work with them and finish the update of my living room. They have so many rugs in fact I had the hardest time choosing the perfect rug.
Because of the boys and our animals it was very important to get something that wouldn't show stains easily. That pretty much eliminated all the light colored rugs. I had a color blocked rug before, so I really wanted to step outside of my comfort and get something a little bit different. With all of my new design elements in the room I was pretty sure I found the perfect fit in the Endicott Black Area Rug.
The black ties in nicely with my black wall decals and black entertainment center and I thought the tan leafy colors would go well with my hardwood floors. I also thought the red berry accents in the rug would be just the right touch of color pop to tie in with my curtains and other red accents around the room. It is a little scary ordering online and hoping the colors will be the same once you see it in person. The rug is even more beautiful in person and much more vibrant. I would say the berries are more of a burnt orangish/red color, not a true red or barn red, but they still accent perfectly. I couldn't be more happy with my choice.
Once rolled out the rug had a few curled edges but by the next day or two it had completely flattened out which is normal. I don't have a pad under mine, just a small no slip strip. If you want a super cushioned rug you would probably want to get a pad. We think the rug is comfortable and perfect for us without but Mohawk does recommend a pad.
Mohawk rugs are affordable and can be purchased at many well known retailers. I found the Endicott Black rug at Home Depot and the 5x8 size needed for my living space is just $97. You can find different rugs at each retailer so it is important to check them all out in your search. You can find a link to each retailer here.
On of my favorite features of Mohawk Home is that their products are still made in the USA! As you know that is getting harder and harder to find. Mohawk Home is a team of hard working people who consider themselves family. They take pride in their work and being able to provide us all with affordable products that are still made right here on US soil. Given the chance I would purchase USA made every time.
Mohawk Home also offers carpeting, hardwoods, tile, laminate, luxury vinyl and commercial flooring as well. An all around solid company with just about anything you need to freshen up your space. You can find more about Mohawk and inspirational ideas, coupons and more by following their social media. Facebook, Twitter and of course inspiring ideas on Pinterest!
