How do you feel about the overdyed and re-formed area rug trend? We like most of the looks out there, from the high-end to the more accessible
Cost Plus versions. We're undecided about the patchwork approach, or the overly-pale dyes - we like lots of color. Which tends to obscure the underlying design (how do they get the white parts of the design to stay white?) There's a nice overview of this process over at
Design Hole with links to retailers and how-tos.
