Pablo approves of my new Flor rug

And now for a break from our regularly scheduled food posts. I just wanted to show you how much I heart my new Flor rug. I'm so sold on the modular design approach; it boasts so many advantages:
  • You design the rug yourself based on your taste, the level of padding you want and the size you need to cover.
  • If a square gets ruined [with 3 kitties, this is highly likely], I can easily replace it instead of having to trash the whole rug.
  • Concerning cleaning, I can scrub one square at a time.
  • If I get bored with the design, I can change the tiles around.
  • The rug is forever scalable, if for example, one day I move into a smaller space, I can split the rug into two smaller ones. If I win the lottery and can finally buy that NYC penthouse I've been dreaming of, I can purchase more tiles to create a larger rug.
Flor is an environmentally responsible company. Many of their tiles are made from renewable and recycled content. They also feature a return and recycle program, so old tiles don't end up in landfills. And no, they are not paying me to write this. I just think the product is brilliant.
