• Danielle’s Living Room Re-do

      We finally had our living room repainted. A Benjamin Moore color named “Cork”, recommended by Michelle Nelson Design in Berkeley, CA.

I brought in a different rug, of course, which we can keep clean thanks to services like Carpet Cleaning Christchurch which are experts at this. This one is Donnemara 8×10 in Harvest colors.

I don’t think a rug design can get more English Arts & Crafts than this. We had about 10 rugs at the show, but the Banks rug stayed rolled up under a table almost until the end. I had forgotten how beautiful…
