Great New Finds from Nate Berkus

We love Nate Berkus!  Not only is he handsome, handy, and one of Oprah’s best friends, he also has an amazing and affordable line through HSN.  We have obsessed over him before, but he has some great new products that we just had to share with you.  But be sure to hurry up because just like on TV, these products are only for sale once, and once they are all sold out, you might not get another chance to get these great deals!

Hand-woven Wool Taos Rug: Made out of natural fibers by skilled artisans, these rugs add a great neutral color, pattern, and texture to your home.  It’s a fabulous piece to warm up any space.

Hand-woven Wool Mexique Rug: Layer this rug on top of the Toas rug or use it all by yourself, and we guarantee everyone will be envious of your instant style fix!

Glass Top Tree Table: A modern twist on those amazing Italian “Sheaf of Wheat” tables, it is perfect as a side table in a living room or to spice up a bedroom.

Woven Knit Gold Throw: We lo ve zigzags, a little glam, and the comfort of your favorite sweater, and this throw brings you just that all in one!  It’s also on sale for $69.95!

The Future Home of Fashion

The Future Home of Fashion

It has been confirmed! Another one of our favorite fashion designers is branching out into the world of home design and accessories. It may seem too far away to already begin dreaming about, but in January 2011 Diane Von Furstenberg is going to launch her own home collection. The collection will include tabletop and decorative accessories, as well as bedding and bath goods and is going to be available at international department stores and her website, DvF.com. We’ve tried to imagine what the pieces might look like by mixing a little bit of DvF fashion with her rug collection at The Rug Company—it just builds the anticipation. We cannot wait!

For Our Love of Dash and Albert

For Our Love of Dash and Albert

We have found a new reason to love Dash and Albert rugs other then their adorable dog mascots and their amazing affordable woven cotton rugs, we have suddenly formed an obsession with their fabulous tufted wool rugs as well.

These rugs are not new to their collation but sometimes get looked over because of the popularity of their cotton rugs.  These rugs are hand tufted using 100% wool yarn that is sheered to create a dense pile that is soft to touch.

These rugs are great alone or to layer on top of an existing rug to add color and texture.  We love their Vine, Brindle, and Circle Fret collections and price from $95.00-$1,260.00 there is a size and price for everyone.
