My husband and I just bought our first home. While we haven't moved in yet, my mind is spinning with how I'm going to furnish it (the manager at West Elm knows me by name) and decorating ideas. Luckily my day job is blogger (http://youaremyfave.com/blog/) so my projects can double as work.

The floor in front of my couch is looking awfully bare. The requirements? A fun patterned rug that doesn't cost more than $1,000. — Melanie from You Are My Fave
This contemporary abstract pattern will add color and interest to your floor. I like that the main color is a nice shade of gray instead of a white that dirties easier.
Although florals are often seen as girly, the large-scale pattern and navy color of this rug make it a little more masculine. At least that's the argument I would give to my husband.
Don't forget painted floor cloths. They can be created to match your decor and are super easy to care for and are perfect for tropical climates. Make your own by consulting "The Complete Book of Floorcloths" by Kathy Cooper and Jan Hersey.
