These are definitely funny, but I think they would be more decorator friendly if they were smaller wall hangings (like the new macrame) or just framed prints. Because really how do you incorporate this into a living space?

I don't think I want profanity on my floor.

I could see these as doormats, but as a big-ass wool rug, it's just too much for a joke.

If you are going to put copy on a carpet, I think it should be witty...they are pretty but corny.

They're wool! They're green. Mr Green must be too busy with his happy dance to comment. Mason

Mason, wool's not always GREEN, but it is nice and lasts a long time.

But these rugs are one of those punch-line things that are cute the first time you see them and start getting on your nerves after that. They would be nice someplace you go rarely, like the dentist's office.
