So that’s the kitchen at The Creek Line House!
We wanted to get something that we could really make a mess of, basically, and then not feel bad about when it’s time to throw it out in a year or two.We thought that as long as we got something grey-ish, it would probably look decent enough until we’re ready to get something fancy that won’t have food squished into it daily..
I really do still like this rug a lot even though it was only $80 for this big size.I like the color and the basic texture and I like that it seems to pass for something nicer than what it really is..The only problem is that this rug is really thin and since we spend so much time in here, and since we are squarely in the toddler phase now, I’m spending more and more time playing on the ground.
Like, most of my time, it seems.Things can get pretty uncomfortable pretty quick with a rug this thin on top of the hard floors underneath, but I’ve really been refusing to upgrade this rug until the time is right.. Rug Pad USA.
Rug Pad USA contacted me recently, just in the knick of time and asked if I wanted to partner with them on a blog post (and a giveaway for my readers!)
and I had the perfect opportunity for just such a post!This is one of those little ideas that makes my friends and family think I’m a little nuts.
There are probably many of those.It makes me happy though, and it’s in the name of making our house feel a little happier too.. We have this rickety screen door leading to our mudroom, that you get to by going up a set of rickety steps on the side of our house.
The whole set up isn’t rickety as in, old and charming, more just oldish and in disrepair.And there are spiders.
