I took nine colors of FLOR's House Pet in shades of blue, green, gray and black and made a wall-to-wall Sudoku puzzle in my living room. Fabulous. All about color on the floor. Walls are ultra pure white natch.

It would be great if people got area rugs that were as large as they were supposed to be, then this wouldn't be such a big deal.
