meg's green finds: union 18's "raw" rugs
Gotta love stripes! Union 18′s striped, handmade Raw rugs are assembled using recycled carpet scraps that otherwise would have been discarded. Husband-and-wife team Todd and Meg van der Kruik carefully select the color palates for each rug, and the result is a bare-feet warmer with both style, history, and heart. Naturally, each rug is completely unique–it’s like couture for your floor! Available on Etsy for $25/square foot. –Meg D.
