When it comes to interior decoration, I always (automatically) lean towards neutral, warm and earthy colors. It's not that I don't like bright colors, it's just that I'm afraid that I might over do and it will go wrong. I don't own a thing in my house which is purple. Yes, I said it. Not a single purple thing. And, when I saw this rug my opinion was quickly changed. I was skeptical. Any dark color like purple can look gorgeous without being too overwhelming. Doesn't this rug featuring owl, moon and tree looks stunning in that living room in the first photo? So, what I learnt? Don't hide purple, decorate with it and of course, buy it first :) Are your neutral colors person or you take risk with dark colors?

Oh my god...LOVE that owl rug! I actually have a crochet owl rug by peanutbutterdynamite (on etsy) - I'm all for bold colors. Got to bring in that sunshine in your home :)
I must agree - the rug is awesome! As far as decorating, I stick with simple, solid, basic colors for big items, but am happy to go crazy with bright, vibrant, unique accessories. :)
neutrals for me!

And of course a little pink girl, sp maybe i'm not that neutral at all....
