My friends had all talked a great deal about the nesting that comes when you are pregnant, but I never truly understood it until I got pregnant myself and began an extensive search for some kids room rugs. The reason I began the search for a rug was because, soon after I learned that I was pregnant, I was thinking about how I wanted to decorate the nursery for the new baby, and I got an astoundingly clear vision of how I wanted it all to look down to the last little detail.
I was going to go with an animal theme and focus mostly on giraffes, both because they are visually appealing, and because I have fond memories of seeing giraffes at the zoo as a child. Once I had this idea firm in my mind, I gathered everything up, including paints and decals, as well as some stuffed animals, and I even hired a carpenter who promptly got to work building a custom giraffe crib. Around three months before the baby arrived, I had everything set up in the room just so, but I was just missing a cute rug for the floor.
I was not all that stressed out about this, as I figured it would be a pretty easy task to find a cute rug for the nursery. I was totally wrong however, and when I went down to the nearest carpet store, I was extremely disheartened to see that there were not any kids room rugs in the entire store. I spent several minutes wandering around the store looking for someone who worked there, and when I did find someone, I asked him if they carry kids' rugs, but he just shrugged and said he didn't think so.
I drove home feeling gloomy, and my insane hormones started to convince me that if I didn't find the perfect rug, it would mean that I was going to be a terrible mother. I know that this is totally irrational, since a brand new baby can barely see at all, let alone see and pass judgment on a rug. Still, I really wanted to find a cute rug, and didn't know where to look.
After a while, I decided to jump on the computer and see what I could find online, and I am certainly glad that I did, since I found an awesome website full of great rugs. I found a rug that was precisely what I was looking for, and as I placed my order, I also threw in some handmade Persian rugs that I thought would make the house a little more inviting for the new baby!
