wow, AT chicago and i are completely on the same wavelength. i just bought a few ikea striped rugs for the staging of my house to sell - so that i can move to chicago. yay!

excellent striped rug/IKEA roundup--many thanks!

I have and love the unni rug. I almost want to stock up on them just in case ikea stops making them.

I have the yellow and white stripe it never worked for me. I use it as a picnic grass cover now.

Where can I find a marble top credenza like that?!

Love the Strib rug, but I have a doormat just like it (from Target). I'm worried the narrow multicolor stripe look is becoming too popular for it's own good (a birthday gift I received earlier this year came in a bag decorated with the same motif).

These may end up looking terribly dated really quickly, like those Chairman Mao leather-collared beige men's coats from Banana Republic a few years back. Suddenly everybody was wearing one, and just as suddenly everybody was sick of them.

Stripies!!!!! Love em!
