Summer is coming to an end and back to school is just around the corner.

One of the easiest ways to achieve a boho summer vibe is by incorporating rugs into your decor. With their versatile designs, textures and colors, rugs can transform your living spaces into a cozy and inviting retreat. In this blog post, I want to explore some creative rug ideas to help you create a boho summer vibe that brings warmth and coziness when your family and your guests are home.

As summer rolls around and the warmer days are staying, it's good to give your rugs some love. Whether you have wool or washable cotton rugs, proper cleaning and maintenance are essential to keep them looking fresh and extend their lifespan. In this blog post, we'll explore some helpful tips and techniques to tackle the challenges of caring for your rugs. 

I recently made a round dining table purchase for our home. We are all used to a rectangular table. The table arrived and we loved it. Now, when guests came over, they always complimented that our custom dining table was amazing. An irregular shape table can make a whole lot of a difference in one space.

June 12 is the world against child labor day. We would like to share some success stories of a person and an organization in combating child labour.

The right rug gives an extra plush and comfort to our home. It's a bonus if it's washable! I would like to share with you today on how to maintain your rugs so they stay clean and long lasting. 

Get ready to ride the wave of summer vibes! As the sun shines brighter and the days get longer, it's time to give your home a fresh makeover. But hey, don't forget about those rugs! They're the unsung heroes of your space. So, let's dive into the wonderful world of sustainable rug materials and find out how you can bring nature's charm, softness, eco-friendly resilience, and a green twist into your summer sanctuary. It's time to make your space sizzle with style and sustainability!

As mothers and mothers to be, we love creating a space haven for our little ones. When it comes to choosing a rug and designing a kid friendly space, every detail comes to mind. A beautiful and thoughtful rug can transform a room into a playful haven, stimulating our minis' imagination and giving them a comfortable surface to play on the floor. 

 

I am exploring different school of thoughts in designing our rooms now and I am excited to share these with you. 

I always wonder if the rug's colour and its backing will sustain the tenth or twenty fifth wash we do on our dining room rug. In this blog post, I would like to share some tips and tricks for choosing a dining room rug that will last a lifetime in quality and style. 

Besides the kitchen, the living room is the primary hangout place for most families.  I like to see it as a jack-of-all-trades room.  It can be the kids' play area where forts are built and battles are won.  It can be a spot for a quiet retreat with a good book in hand.  It can be where guests gather for a chatter when you're hosting.  

Just because a rug is marked with the words "recycled" on it may not mean it is truly eco friendly.  Consider the end-of-life of the rug and choose one that can be easily composted or repurposed.
