Roundup: Bring in the Color!

In our daily trolling of things beautiful and inspirational, we found this amazing rug. Bursting with vibrant color, we thought it would be the perfect way to inject some liveliness into a room. Here are five of our favorite ways to easily inject pigment into your pad...

• 1 This rug by Nina Bovasso from BravinLee is an inspirational myriad of color that we came across on Better Living Through Design.

• 2 Kim, from Desire to Inspire, knows how to introduce bold color in meaningful ways--like this gorgeous canary yellow bulletin board frame.

• 3 This sofa from Anthropologie brings great color and texture to a room.

• 4 These bold and daring screens from Designgalleriet on act (the website is in German, apologies for the limited information) are an aggressive way to make a color statement, but could be stunning in the right setting.

• 5 CasaSugar has a great example of making a strong case for color and texture with this illustration of using throw pillows to dictate a color scheme.

I just bought one of these rugs when I was in New York and I am so happy with it! The art dealer at BravinLee programs gave me a really great discount since they are just starting out this program. I love that these rugs aren't just aesthetically beautiful, they retain the same value as a piece of artwork since they are limited editions and there is a continuing market for high quality rugs to retain their value at auction.

I think I have a new unobtainable dream rug.

If I just had $35,000 I could put that rug and a few other things together and have a very nice room. :-(
