We're Still Getting Things Together At Fleur De Lis - Home Sourse. On My Short List Was Getting Some Floor Coverings. Status: Check.

I've been looking around craigslist for about a week hoping to find some decent rugs at a cheap price for the shop.  Nothing worth sending an e-mail over showed up, but today I stopped by Garden Ridge to see if they had any more good upholstery material remnants.  Guess what, they got tons of rugs!

But first, check out the Peacock chairs I got for Mom-tomic over the weekend!  Aren't these just so

over the top?  I knew that my Mom would like them and when she asked if I could snatch them up for

her, I was happy to.  I think these will look great sitting out front of the shop...for the short time they'll 

be there until someone else snatches them up!




These are the two rugs that I picked up today.  They were / are very cheap.  I wouldn't expect them to

last long in a home but they don't have to do much more than look good here in the shop.  Plus, if they

do get ruined here, I won't be out much money.  After I got them here in the shop I realized that I could

have used another, but I can always go back and get one more.  Garden Ridge (a giant box style decor

store) has TONS more.  Actually, I might pick up another of that top one for the home.  Who cares if

it's a cheap rug.  It looks so cool!  It's got a real Brasilia vibe to it.  I wanna say that the second one has

a Kandinsky vibe but I can't find any Kandinsky paintings like it. 

I (of course) stopped at a thrift or three while out running around, but all I found was this nifty "Eames"

inspired magazine rack.  I've got another very similar one here at home that I've been reluctant to let go,

now I don't have to!  The barrel shade is from yesterday's thrifting.  I remembered to bring it home so

as to fit it with a proper base.  And so went my Sunday.  Hope you had a good weekend too!
