Faith’s Top Ten Area Rugs

Friday, April 24th, 2009

The category for this Top Ten list is area rugs. For most projects I customize rugs to create a design specific for my clients. Many companies produce custom quality rugs in a range of prices and sizes. So here are my current Top 10.

1. Stripes work in so many areas, from the entry to the library.
