We ordered a rug!

We have been in the process of converting our under-used guest room into a playroom for a few months now and one major component that has been missing is a rug.  I have been searching and searching for one that goes with our black and white theme, but is kid-friendly, comfortable, and won't break the bank.  Some of my favorites have included:

Except that our playroom is also half office/sewing room/library/etc., so we didn't want to make it quite so childish, which is why we went with a black and white theme (and also because it matches our black and white furniture).  We already purchased these curtains to match:

I will post a tour of the room with photos when it is completed!
