Here's a snap of the new hallway rug from West Elm in action. I am going rogue and using it without a rug pad. I'll probably eat my words when I slip on it once of these days. It's a perfect shade of orange and it looks great with everything else I have going on. Here's to 2012's color of the year!
PS: I totally centered the rug after I took this photo. It looks much less awkward now.

i like it! kind of random, do you have stairs? are they wood? we want to pull up carpet on our stairs but they are too slick...

The color is perfect with your wood tones. I love your doors. We have to replace ours since they were cut up to accommodate the carpet (and the wood grain is insanely busy). Your doors are what I want.

Thanks, Beth! My home did have carpet at one time too, so the doors are a bit short, but I like them. I love the blonde stain they used in this era.

Hi Julia. Missed your comment earlier!
I am protected. (Ok, that was dorky of me).
Yes, I do have stairs, but only to my basement, so I won't be safe from zombies. They are painted wood. I haven't noticed any slippery issues, but I don't have kidlets to worry about.
