Dwell Studio Nursery Rug Arrives!

July 10th, 2008 by

Well, our little detour into non-nursery land was rather short lived… But only because the Dwell Studio Zebra Rug we registered for (given to us as a  shower gift from our uber stylish family friend Renee- no, seriously, she is a movie wardrobe stylist) arrived last night!

I LOVE this rug because it’s wool, not one of those awful chemical smelling fake olefin or whatever other synthetic fiber stuff that gives me an instant headache.

Plus, even though the colors are NOT as picture on target.com (as many reviewers pointed out) they turned out just as I hoped they would -  much softer and a perfect match for our color scheme. In fact the darker brown color is remarkably close to the brown of the tree in the monkey mural!

And now for your viewing pleasure:

Most importantly, sammy gives the rug her stamp of approval:

The overall dimensions were actually bigger than I expected based on the reviews, but  it works. The hardwood floors in this room somehow got really scratched up, so the extra coverage is fine even though smaller would have been ok too.

Now I just have to finish the mobile and I’ll post a whole “nursery tour” and then we can forever be done with the nursery posts!

    I love your color combos– where’d you get those green roman shades?


  17. Melissa H, on August 8th, 2008 at 8:39 am Said:

    Why’d my comment disappear? Where’d you get those shades?


  18. Vicky, on August 11th, 2008 at 11:57 am Said:

    Love love love the rug, anyone know where to get this rug in Canada? or any website that would ship it to canada? congratulations on the little on!!! Great job.


  19. ariana, on August 12th, 2008 at 8:12 am Said:

    Melissa, the shades are from JCPenney, Savannah Roman shades in “soft lime”.

    Vicky, target doesn’t ship to canada?


  20. Vicky, on August 12th, 2008 at 5:23 pm Said:

    No Target doesn’t ship to canada unfortunatly!!! That’s why I’ve been trying to find another place that would ship internationaly or somewhere that would have something similar somewhere else.


  21. Leana, on August 20th, 2008 at 4:05 am Said:

    I noticed that http://www.Amazon.com sells this rug for target, does Amazon ship to Canada? I just put in Dwell Zebra Rug and it came up.

    Where’d ya get those drapes? I like the light design. We used the Dwell for Target Zoo/blue with the George Baby Soft Circles from Walmart and need this rug.

    I know i am resurrecting an old post, but I am curious how your roman shades have held up. Have they blocked out heat/cold at all? And, of course…gorgeous nursery!

    I love the green roman shades! I love green in general..but they really pop against the white. lovely!
