Even Addy, my chocolate lab, likes the cheetah carpet…
I’ve had lots of questions about the cheetah carpet my designer, Ken Blasingame, chose for the bedrooms in my new home. Most of you seem to really like it and I can’t wait to show you the completed rooms. Hopefully we’ll be finished in time for Thanksgiving company!
In the meantime, I was looking for ideas about how other people use animal print carpet and rugs and I ran across some fun and pretty pictures I thought you might enjoy.
Jimmy Choo founder Tamara Mellon’s fabulous apartment with pink sofas on animal print carpet appeared in this Elle Decor GalleryI found some pretty ideas on Houzz like this classic use of an animal print as a runner on a stairway…
and how fabulous is this cheetah with lacquered green cabinetry, from an entire Pinterest page of Leopard and Cheetah Carpet Ideas.
If you are looking for an animal print carpet there are several sites where you can browse. How much fun would this pink cheetah be in a girl’s bedroom?
Or if black and white is more to your liking, the Stark equidae is pretty fab.
I found both the pink cheetah and the equidae on the Stark Carpet website. which has an entire animal print page. By the way, the pink cheetah comes in a pretty silver too.
If you don’t want to cover your entire floor in animal print, adding a rug is a great way to get just a touch of leopard, or cheetah or…
this wonderful hooked zebra rug is from an Architectural Digest Animal Print Gallery.
As soon as my bedrooms are finished, I’ll be posting pictures with information about my own cheetah carpet and other goodies like some wonderful linens I found at a local shop.
Until then, sweets dreams about animal prints…
Your choice of this particular cheetah carpet is splendid. I can’t wait to see your finished bedrooms and always enjoy your blog, Jane!!
Thanks Marielle!
Jane, the cheetah carpet is lovely. You taste is amazing and unique. I can’t wait to see more.
Thank you Earline!
Thanks for sharing this information. I’ve been planning to go with animal print in our master and my closet. This is just the motivation I needed to make it happen!
Hope you like it as much as I do Kari!
