Interesting Rug/Headboard!

Just a quick note to share this very interesting version of a headboard! Creative, I think. Although I would have gone one step further and hung some oversized white rice paper lamps in the ceiling and skipped those reading lamps. For example. It isn’t even half-done this room, but there’s an embryo of a nice [...]

Rugs should then be of different sizes to avoid the room being cut (and boring). Ahern herself has a woolen zeebra [...]
