Closet Rug

Today I bought an oriental runner for $15 at the thrift store (see the post below for another great buy). Did I score today or what? And these are not the only goodies I got, but this is all I have time to show you right now.

Okay, I know everyone doesn't need a rug in their closet -- they have carpeted closets. But I have a tile floor and I NEEDED a rug in my closet. The floor was cold and I don't want to step on a bare floor - I hate cold feet (I know .... what a Princess!!). When I spotted this one at the thrift store, I checked for stains and for quality --- it feels great! I'm okay with a synthetic rug for my closet, but I don't want it to FEEL like it's made of plastic ... know what I mean? It needs to feel like it's made of wool. This one doesn't have a tag stating content and I know I can test it to see if it's wool, but I don't WANT to. I mean .... after all, it's a CLOSET rug. It's just there to keep my feet warm and my eyes happy.
And my eyes ARE happy!

That looks exactly like the one I bought at Weir's a hundred years ago. Mine does have a tag but since it's tucked away in the storage shed I can't check it out--and of course I don't remember what it said! I do love it, and it looks great in your closet. (Tripp bought a couple at the same time--you know Weir's; they were on sale. He used his in the kitchen. Wonder if he still has them. Yunno, he lives at Cedar Creek now.)

FOR THOSE WHO DON'T KNOW - HER CLOSET REALLY LOOKS LIKE THAT ALL THE TIME - NOT JUST FOR THIS PIX - DISGUSTING ISN'T IT?

LOVE THE RUG - GOOD EYE!
