Did Charpin have the Humboldt County hippie stronghold in mind when he designed this hand-tufted wool rug? The doodle-like intersecting lines betray the influence of Arcata’s premier cash crop.
Just hearing the word 'macrame' might evoke visions of groovy hemp wall decor and tasseled hanging plant holders, but not all knotty work is rooted in retro kitsch. Home decor ace Jonathan Adler has sophisticated the craft, and his jute rug is handwoven in an organic pattern that would add a nice bit of texture to a hardwood floor.
While it is certainly not a sofa, pendant, kitchen remodel, or generally any kind of big ticket item you scrimp and save and lust for, a doormat is one of the first little touches you—and your guests—see before setting foot inside your home. Make that first step a good one with this lovely floral outdoor floor cover, hand-woven in India from coconut husk fibers.
