Bedroom Rug Over Carpet
I was browsing rug sources last night, looking for a rug to layer over the carpet in the master bedroom and came across some contenders on Lulu & Georgia and Joss & Main, but I still want to check out Homegoods and some other online retailers like RugsUSA, Target and Overstock before I pull the trigger. I'll continue pinning my faves onto my "rug" Pinterest board if you want to check them out. I still need to measure to see exactly the size we need, but our bed is a little over 7 feet wide, so I'm looking at rugs at least 7'6 x 10'6. I like to see lots of rug beyond the actual bed.
Below is a cool graphic illustrating how different rug sizes will look with a king bed.

Two friends of mine have beautifully incorporated rugs into their bedroom design. I've loved seeing Courtney's bedroom evolve over the years. When I first met her, she had painted a subtle wide stripe pattern onto her focal wall by using the same color paint, just one in a glossier finish. It was an easy way to add dimension and interest to the wall without much effort. She has since opted for a feminine geometric patterned wallpaper in a soothing colorway and it is stunning!

Another bedroom that made me stop in my tracks recently is that belonging to Sita Montgomery. The whole room is neutral perfection!

I know I'm on the right track with our neutral bedroom when I realize I still love our light grey walls (Sherwin Williams - A New Grey) and neutral bedding (that we've had for years in the 'Pacific' colorway- it's on sale now, by the way). I'm excited to continue in this direction and finally add in a rug!
