Remember when the MiL and I hauled furniture and rugs around to put down Duchess's rug in the living room? That was so much fun, we thought we'd do it again!
Okay, really, it's not so much fun, but the other rug had been rolled up in the parlor for weeks, along with two rug pads and a bunch of other junk, and we thought maybe it would be nice to clean that up before the hordes swarmed the house for Thanksgiving and saw how feckless and lazy we are.
Shame is a powerful motivator.
So, second verse, same as the first: Drag out all the furniture and cram it in the living room, clean the floor, lay down the rug pad, center the rug, smooth out the wrinkles in the rug, haul all the furniture back in, and then collapse face-first on the pretty new rug in a heap of exhaustion. And then get up and take a picture.
Just so you know beforehand, there is no way of getting a full-room shot of the parlor. Short of trussing myself up from a rope in the middle of the ceiling to get the birds-eye view. I elected to stay on the floor, however, so this is the best I got.
With that in mind, here's Duchess's Rug #2 in the parlor:
This room cries out for a pipe stand and a red velvet smoking jacket.
My god that is a beautiful rug!
