Americana Hooked Rugs & Pillows
I spent yesterday with a great friend and talented businesswoman, Jan Orr Harter from Hot Tamale Antiques in Ft. Worth, Texas. Jan has specialized in Western and Americana antiques for years and it was a great opportunity to shop/junk with her all day with her and see things with a fresh perspective. We stumbled on a gorgeous hooked rug that she encouraged me to buy ~ it really is a beautiful example of Americana Folk Art, all hand hooked with mid-century fabrics. And I love the way that it looks in the store!!
{Americana Hooked Rug ~ $250 SOLD ~ 49″ x 28″}
call 816.386.4013 to purchase
Later last night I was thumbing through an old Country Living Magazine from 2005 and ran across a blurb about HookedonVermont.com… check out their beautiful pillows and rugs…
I’ve seen hooked rugs and pillows for years and normally pass them up without a second thought. I’m excited to have this fresh idea for our store and the house ~ it feels good to bring a little color into the mix of neutrals!!
