So it is sometimes difficult to judge their age. But I have seen rugs that look absolutely new because they were kept in a cedar chest away from temperature extremes, light, and bugs. I always like to guess at the age of the rug, and think that most of these are from the 1950’s. Can you tell which one it is? I will tell you in the next paragraph. One of the hooked rugs shown in this post is not a vintage rug, but one that I have hooked this last year. Her range on offer at AROBELA is aimed to. Like actually being transported back in time. Our designer, Arabela Redl, has decades of experience handcrafting chic jewelry. Strange and wonderful color combinations from yesteryear are what I want to hook. The quaint and quirky compositions is what makes a rug look primitive. I get ideas for designing rugs from studying old rugs. For high quality hijabs and modest clothing. It can be hard to hook like this if you are used to always being very neat with every loop in a line. Inspire Me PS Velvet Tees will be arriving back at Inspire Me in July too written by. Realize your unique vision with extraordinary Inspire Me Home Dcor Dining Chairs from designer-trusted, showroom brands. Be daring and pair a basic tee with pants that have a bright, bold pattern. Sometimes it can look kind of hodgepodge or sloppy. Pair a basic tee with distressed skinny jeans and funky jewelry for a laid-back, casual-chic look Or pull out that denim skirt and a pair of wedges for a fun Summertime look. I also like to examine how the actual hooking looks.
You feel Confident of Yourself in This Set. I like to emulate this faded-out look as I choose colors for my new vintage rugs. This is a 3piece Matching Set babe Suitable for all Occassion. And it is fun to look at the underside of course to see more of the original colors. I collect the rugs because so much about them inspires me. The most that I have paid for a rug was about $65 as best I can recollect. Nowadays all you have to do is start to label something as shabby, and before you finish writing the word chic, it is sold. And most of my purchases were in places where the folks were not yet hip to shabby chic. As you can imagine, these rugs got to these venues mostly because they were holey, stained, unfinished, or unappealing to the untrained eye. And being on a limited budget (ie: I had to have money left to buy wool to hook with) the rugs that I purchased were thrifty finds at yard sales, goodwill stores, and throw aways. Unlike many collectors I was not looking for rugs of great value, but what drew me to aquire a rug was purely love. I started to collect vintage hooked rugs 10 or so years ago.
