New Andy Warhol collection items added to RugSale.com 50,000 item selection

Andy Warhol was known for breaking the rules, harnessing the latest technology to express his ideas, and creating a new movement in Twentieth century art to be studied and imitated for years to come. The factory designs were influenced by the early textures and shading of Warhhol's "Factory" period.

The Factory was the hip hangout for artsy types and the Warhol superstars. It was famed for its groundbreaking parties and artwork. In the studio, Warhol's workers would make silkscreens and lithographs. In 1968, Andy moved the Factory to the sixth floor of the Decker Building, 33 Union Square West, near Max's Kansas City, a club Warhol and his entourage would frequent.

In that tradition, these rugs have deeper and richer colors than most and their style are high-quality and handmade. They would look fantastic in a den, living room or open area that is trying to showcase a more Autumnal style. Because of their handmade manufacturing, they would last longer than most and are often more plush that your standard rug.

There are just some really neat new styles such as the Andy Warhol 14113 Horizon that depicts a sunrise or the Andy Warhol 14114 Twillight that looks more like a sunset  - both would be enthralling near a large open window or in your front entrance.

All of these are fairly new additions to the Andy Warhol collection at RugSale.com - for more fall color ideas please just follow the link here.

Modern Rugs are geting very popular in today's homes

Modern lifestyles are casual and simple but by no means boring. New homes are sleek, renovations are modern, traditional homes less cluttered. Rising taste is for more open space. Against these cleaner backdrops rugs in contrast can be bold, spirited, colorful, graphic, playful, eccentric or comforting and warm. Rugs define space, add personality and mood. Whether they be bright, uplifting or setting a calm and safe mood, rugs are a grounding factor in any room. Layer rugs over carpet for a quick update or select mix and match patterns to define various spaces within one’s home or office. Themes co-mingle and, more than ever, are a reflection of unique style and personal taste. Geo patterns, updated damasks, texture and tracery all have a place in today’s design. Clean unfettered homes allow the objects within the homes to sparkle and to be noticed and appreciated. Design is eclectic and in many ways more interesting than ever before.

Capel Rugs are just one of the brands that you can expect to see some really cool designs and styles out this fall. Their modern styles with solid prints are attractive and go with nearly any style in your home. Some of the more eclectic styles, such as animal prints or geometric rugs, are quite capable in your home as well.

Modern rugs are not like Traditional rugs in that their styles change quickly and unexpectedly, Traditional Rugs are often safer in that their patterns and looks and colors do not change often and even when they do, they are still considered in "vogue".

Fall is the time for Rugs - COLOR, COMFORT and PRICE

Now that the kids are back in school and the pool is almost closed, it's time to start looking around your home for those changes you've been meaning to do for the last several months.

COLOR & STYLE CHANGE:
Rugs are a big part of that change. Rugs will change the look of the room before any paint or wallpaper gets near your home and boy, is it faster. Rugs can make a room look darker, brighter, bigger and smaller with just one quick switch of one rug to another. Plus, should you want to make the feel of your room(s) a little different, your best and fastest answer is an area rug. Contemporary rugs give a unique feel for a room - they offer styles and shapes that are not usually seen, definitely preferable if you are trying to update a room. Traditional rugs are great for a more formal feel - they have more distinct browns, burgundies and blacks that will give your room a sophisticated shine.


COMFORT
In another few weeks, you're going to remember why you wanted to change the rugs last year - in many places, such as New York City and Chicago, the temperature starts to drop, quickly and those cold floors are not a pleasant feeling. It's tough to get ready for the holidays when your feet are freezing on the floor. A pad is a great way to help here too - it makes the rug thicker and absorbs heat better, keeping you and your home warmer. A non skid pad is good for keeping the rug from moving, but a premium pad will be warmer and safer.

Now is the time too to switch out thinner rugs for thicker ones - since we are talking about staying warm now. Shag rugs are perfect for this. Thick and soft and warm, shag rugs are ideal for keeping the cold floors away from your slowly-awakening feet.

PRICE
Rugs don't have to be expensive to be good. Brand names such as Momeni, Nourison and Oriental Weavers are great choices for high quality rugs, but you can save even more with brands such as TransOcean or Radici. The best value are often in the Clearance Section  - they are one-of-a-kind items, but they are often marked down very low, like 50% or more, just to sell them off and make space for other items.

Be sure to hunt around for good coupon codes too. Often these codes will take an additional discount off the final price of the rug and padding you might be buying. Some manufacturers aren't very fond of these codes and will deny them before the final sale is made, but they are still worth trying to see if you can get the discount or not.

Rugs are often considered "static" in a room, but they really should be considered a dynamic item. If you change items on your walls, if you like putting in blankets or switching pillows or even consider changing the paint color, then rugs should also be in on your mind. Be sure to remember, the floor is one of the first things that people see when they enter the room.

How Your Floor can Celebrate the Fourth in Style

Nope- not kidding here, you acutally can make your floor as patriotic as your backyard barbeque with just a few quick changes.

I mean, think about it, your rug dictates what the rest of the room looks like doesn't it? If you want a jungle theme, you're not buying a red shag rug. If you wanted a traditional study, pink is out. Patterns on your rugs can make or break the design of the room faster than any yard sale trinket or ebay find.

But back to patriotism and and the fourth - Betsy Ross is credited as the designer of the American flag. She sat down with George Washington and figured out a general pattern for the flag, which had many stages before it was really decided upon in late 1777. Betsy Ross first input to the American Flag was the stars. George Washington wanted six pointed stars, Betsy showed him five pointed stars would work a whole lot better. Here's where you can put a little history into your room's presentation.

Find a rug with stars in it - five pointed ones to be specific. Look for contemporary rugs, that's your best bet. Momeni and Oriental Weavers are great providers of these styles.

If you aren't a fan of star, or stripes, then Anji Bamboo Mountain has a red shag rug that would work perfect as a balancer for all the other smaller decorations that you're going to have around your room. Simple is always better. You've had enough to do and it's time to relax. Have a great, happy and safe Fourth of July and we'll see you on the other side of the fireworks.
