My First Cowhide Rug

Hello Everyone, Well I finally jumped on the cowhide wagon and got myself a
"MOO MOO" cow for our dining room. You might remember my plans for a new
Dining Room Look ? Well it's coming along slowly but surely!
On my IKEA Shopping Trip last weekend, I purchased this brown cowhide
with a few little white spots on it.
Truth be told, I had previously purchased a brown


cowhide from World Market, but the ones at IKEA


were on sale for $200 and the one from Word Market


was $350. So I returned the World Market rug...


Need I feel guilty now????
I know not everyone approves of cowhides or other types of


animal skins for clothing or decorations. But it's like I told


one of my vegetarian friends when accused of


supporting the industry:


"BUT I ALREADY ATE THE COW"


So this could be considered an up-cycle, right?"

    Wow! That cowhide rug looks so amazing in your kitchen. I would love to put something like that in my living room, actually. I've been trying to come up with an idea to spruce my living room up but I've been at a lack for inspiration. Your pictures gave me some great ideas. Thanks! http://www.uggboots.com.au/catalogue/cowhides/
