Working with zebra print overwhelms me – I love it, and yet I'm terrified of it.
I wanted to step outside of my safe, little design box, and do something bold and daring. And well, a huge, zebra print rug in my modern-glam living room definitely accomplishes that goal.
I'm happy with the new look, but I'll be honest, it's going to take awhile to get used to without me thinking "wow, that's a lot of zebra" every time I walk into the room. Plus, I think once I get some black and white pillows for the chairs and my painting is done, some of the pressure will be off of the rug.

Love it - the rug totally makes the room. Excellent choice :)
ReplyDeletepersonally, I love it in your space, and I'm not even a big fan of zebra! I like that it's just one big print - it doesn't look too busy like most zebra tends to do, and it's the perfect size!
ReplyDeleteLove the zebra. It makes such a statement (totally in a good way). Nice bold choice.
ReplyDeleteLove it! The room looks fantastic!
