I have a white flokati in my living room, but I waited until my daughter got older to put it down (I bought it looong ago and just put it in it’s intended spot 4 months ago). I love it in the living room, but you don’t have to step on it to walk through the room. You do have to accept that your white rug will get beat up though.

It just look fine and it gives a rather unique cozy look for your room.

Hi Nicole, glad to have come across this blog! although this is an older post, I want to let you know this rug is absolutely the right size and direction.

8×11 you would probably find one leg of the red chair off the edge, and it would dominate the room too much in general. Plus, you have really nice floors, which should absolutely be shown!

As for the orientation and direction, if you turned the rug 90 degrees, it would block off the room too much.

Place the rug at an angle (corner to corner if you will) so that it under only some of the furnituer.YOu’ll get teh visual break and you wont be trying to ‘fit’ a rug into the room.

Thanks Nicole – it’s just what I’m looking for, but seems it is not to be…

The coffee table is from Thomas O’Brien’s collection for Target (from a few years ago).

OK, I took the rug out of the living room and brought up an old jute one from the basement. It’s 8x 10, and the size is much better. It’s just not as pretty. ;)

Mikey, it was holding up just fine though!

Rug is great, but totally impractical. We recently bought a cream rug for a high traffic area and it now looks like a dog’s breakfast.

BUT the coffee table is the business. Where is it from?
