I haven’t even begun to decorate our kids’ rooms since we moved in, but I did order this colorful rug last week as the jumping off point for my son’s room:
I’ve been trying to figure out where to fit a kilim rug into our house for a while, and this one seemed playful enough for a little boy’s room (and the price was right).
I especially love the mix of colors they bring into an overall neutral space:
Country Living
Elle Decor
And, although out of my price range, I love the vintage ones that Pottery Barn now offers:

What’s your take on kilim rugs? Do you own one, or have a good source to share with us?
My mum just bought a new Kilim rug for the hallway and it looks great!
ReplyDeleteLove these images! My favorite kilims are the faded ones with softer, worn colors. I have spotted some great ones on Etsy and Ebay actually :)

What a fabulous rug for your son's room! I don't have a kilim rug but like you, I think one of my boy's rooms would be the perfect spot. Can't wait to see what you do!

I think a kilim rug would be great in our kitchen. I might have to think about that. I really like the one that you've selected for your son's room and love all of the possibilities you could take from it.
ReplyDeleteI have owned a bunch of them for a while and move them around as I change up the rooms. Love them!
ReplyDeleteKilim rugs are beautiful and add color and pattern to a room! ;-) Try homedecorators.com or even IKEA...
ReplyDeleteI love the faded worn colours of a kilim rug. I would love to use one in our cottage. It would bring a shot of colour and be beautiful against the wood floors and beams.
ReplyDeleteI love Kilim rugs. They have so much interest and texture. I don't have one in my home, but hope to at some point. I love the one you picked out for your son's room. The colors are so vibrant and fun!

I love them!! I dont have any Kilim rugs but I have two antique Persian ones that I just love. I recently got my second one at esalerugs.com, love that website!
ReplyDeleteI have a dhurrie rug but those are basically the same as kilim rugs. I didnt really care for mine :( I agree your inspiration pics are beautiful though. I found them hard to upkeep and vaccum. I've also been trying to sell it for around 130 dollars if anyone is interested. Its a 6x10 foot rug. thanks :-) rachelswray2@yahoo.com
ReplyDeleteMy take on kilims is that I think I must have one! They look amazing!
ReplyDeleteI love to see them in very neutral kitchens... my dream. :)
ReplyDeleteI don't own one, but would certainly love to. The one you choose is so cool for a jumping off point. Will you go neutral in your son's room too? The pictures you chose are amazing!!!

I have that exact rug in our playroom / TV room. I agree that the colors make the room fun but without being too kiddie.
ReplyDeletei love them too..would like one in my livnig room but with a toddler on the floor constantly i feel they are a bit rough and not very cushy but great to put over carpet...any other thoughts on upkeep and comfort.
ReplyDeletewhere didyou get this one emily?? i love the colors and designs..cant wait to see what you do..you kn ow i love boy rooms! you might need some short drapes to compliment this!;;;

Love the kilim rugs! Always in style and adds some punch. And thanks for the PB tip.
ReplyDeleteThat kilim rug is really great! I have it in our office. I found it on my search to find one like Jenny's from Little Green Notebook!
