Love It or Hate It? Flax Manhole Cover Floor Mats
These Manhole Cover Floor Mats at Flax Art and Design ($27.95) cleverly echo the designs of city sewer covers, with versions available for London, Paris, and New York. I don't think I'd want one in my house, but the indoor/outdoor rugs would look cute on a porch. What do you think?

Do You Have a Welcome Mat?
A welcome mat can add personality to the most mundane, run-of-the-mill exterior. It's inviting, and if you have a monogrammed mat, it's a great way to signal to your guests that you live there. Do you have one?Source
Do You Have a Welcome Mat?
(Un)Welcome Mats
A few years ago, I was getting a lot of mis-delivered mail meant for a local judge, so when I had accumulated a big batch, I decided to swing by her house and drop off her mail. I was immediately won over by the judge's door mat, which simply said "Come Back With a Warrant."
You can buy the High Cotton doormat for $15.99, and that's not the only (un)welcome mat I've stumbled upon lately.
Casa Quickie: Cool Down With Mats
Since Summer is fast approaching, I have been thinking about some ways to make seasonal changes in my home. While I think a good shag rug is great for creating a cozy wintry vibe in your home, when the temperature rises, it's time to switch it up. To achieve a cooler look and feel to combat the heat of Spring and Summer, go with a flat weave Dhurrie or plastic floor matting instead.
Nice and New: DwellStudio Petal Plus Bath Mat
It's hard not to love DwellStudio, especially considering all of designer Christiane Lemieux's talent and design expertise. I've long been a fan of the textile company's bedding designs, but unfortunately I'm not in the market for new bed linens. So, I'm delighted to see that DwellStudio has made its foray into la salle de bain.
Casa Verde: A Mat Made of Belts
In the last couple years, we've seen belts cinching their way up our waists. But did you ever think you'd find them covering your floor? That is, aside from in your floordrobe?
Mad Mats Recycled Rugs
Think this rug is made of wool? Think again.

Ask Casa: Framing Fine Photography
Hi Casa,
I am adding, for the first time ever, fine photography to my apartment. However I am at a loss when it comes to framing styles and arrangement.
One set of four photographs is horizontally-oriented and black-and-white.
Steal of the Day: Amara Bathmat
My beloved, fresh, and always-lovely India Rose just became a bit more accessible. The lush, plush, and oh-so-adorable India Rose Amara Bathmat ($40, reduced from $50) is on sale at Burke Decor (and normally $58 at India Rose). Considering that your basic hardware store variety of bathmat goes for $20, I think this is a great deal.
Casa Quickie: Dual Doormats
With all the mud, snow, and slush that enter our homes during the Winter, a doormat is a must. But when holiday party season is in full swing (along with the drinks!), you can't count on your guests to be mindful of the mud. So, you can give them a little nudge by putting a second door mat inside the door, in addition to the exterior welcome mat.
