While on the road last week I purchased a rug at the Crate and Barrel rug outlet in Kittery, Maine. There are only a few outlet locations and that’s a damn shame because there were some great finds.
It would match my CB2 acrylic console. I have figured out how to bring home a good number of things on the road, but I knew this was beyond my abilities to fit in a suitcase.
This lampshade was huge and quite on sale.
They had a lot of ornaments.
I especially liked these ornaments.
A grouping of them together would be a cool baby mobile. There is nothing to read into that except that we have a good number of friends that have babies or have one on the way.
I found a 4′x6′ Zola rug and loved the colors. I purchased it and tried it out in the hotel room.
I sent the above photo to The Mister and asked him to measure out a space on our leopard rug.
We tried it out and it was a disappointment.
Good thing I have till early April to return it and will be back in the area in March. It’s a great rug but I don’t have a place for it. If they had a smaller one I would use it in the kitchen.
R.A. Love that striped rug! Cut it in half – hem the raw edge – now you would have 2 for the kitchen – one clean and one in the laundry!
Now I’m going to click on the outlet link – fingers crossed there is one in my area!
I thought about cutting the rug but I don’t trust myself on that. This is especially true as the rug wasn’t exactly cheap.
They have outlet on their website
Deb, thanks for the tip! I looked around and they do have some finds. Sadly, it’s doesn’t have the same amount of good finds or as deep of discounts.
[...] week I was back in New Hampshire and Maine. I returned the rug and it pained me a little. I didn’t have a place for it, but that’s never stopped me [...]
