I love old rugs! I know, you probably already knew that fact, with as insane as I get on my IG stories when I see one. I was looking for a larger vintage looking rug and when I found the real deal with all of the colors that I was looking for, I was in love! Chester is a little upset because he does not match my rug this time but I’m sure he will get over it.
I found some amazing pillows to accent my rug and would love to know what you think of them. I can’t keep them all but I wanted to bring them home and see what they looked like in my space. I am sourcing them all at the end of this post, along with a source list of this space. Alot of these pillows are actually on sale and cheaper online than they were at my local store. I am thrilled to add color to this space and I am just loving the texture and color that these pillows add too!
Just looking at the rug in this photo has me wanting to roll all over it. I mean seriously, am I the only one that gets this crazy about a rug?! The two pillows here are two of my favs out of all of them. I love the added fringe and texture that the navy one has.
And did you guys notice that my branches are blooming now?? Gahhhhh!!! LOVE, LOVE, LOVE!!!
I was unsure if I should keep my farmhouse sign around. I removed the cow skull that I had in here, just for a change. But I think the farmhouse sign will be staying.
And this cozy throw is so soft. It also has amazing texture and color to go with my rug.
I added some vintage books to my table. I also used alot of the books that you see me buying and ripping the covers off, in my IG stories. I find cheap novels a lot at thrift stores and rip off the covers for a more neutral look.
Thank you all for stopping by! I would love to hear what you think of my new, “old” rug and my pillows. Give me your opinion, in the comments here of which ones I should keep. Do you have a favorite?

Jenny says
I love the pop of color the rug brings to your room. And those pillows ???? I love the the blue and brown neutral one that look similar the best. Whatever you don’t keep send my way ???? The whole room looks amazing.
My Vintage Porch says
Thank you Jenny! Those are my favs too I think ????????
Donna says
Ok lady … lol you asked …. I seem to be the minority but I’m returning the red one. It’s a nice pillow but if we have to return some …????
but if you have to then I’m also returning the dark brown Mongolian fur and the brown textured one . Wow that was painful ????
I should have told you the ones I liked instead but to be honest I’m too lazy to retype this ????
I LOVE your new old rug ! What a find .
Debbie says
Natalie, I always look forward to your stories…. You make my day!!
Idea= post a photo of each pillow with a poll yes or no.
But please…you must keep the one with grey stripes and sparkles! I really love that one.
And the new old rug is really great…Chester looks especially cute on it. It brings out his eyes!
Take care,
Debbie
My Vintage Porch says
Thank you Debbie! Great idea! ❤️
Wendy D. says
I ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ the rug! Not a fan of red, but I do love it in this rug. All of the pillows in the last photo are keepers. Ditch the one with red. That blue with all that yummy texture is my fav. Would so get this if i had blue in the living room. Hmmmm, I do have blue in the master bedroom. Should I or not.???????????? Thank you all the inspiration and making me lol with your stories. ????
My Vintage Porch says
Thank you Wendy!! That blue one seems to be loved by a lot. I love it too!
Catherine says
Love the one with the blue ( oblong )in it. love the throw. I’m a sucker for navy blue any time. Rug looks amazing.
I usually don’t comment because I don’t want my email sold or given to third parties. Hope that won’t happen. But I really enjoy you so thought I’d take a chance????
joyce vail says
like your new rug and the pillows look nice ! but the one i like best has the lighter blue it looks perfect with the neutral color pillows! See how you bring the grey and white out in your rug by using the cozy throw, looks good! your room looks super good as usual!!
Susan B. says
I love the navy pillow and the textured cream and gold shag pillow. Don’t like the one with the red on it or the black and white one though. Hope that helps.
La Donna Sullivan says
Love the blue one with texture, love the rug, colors are gorgeous
Tammy says
I think all the pillows except the fuzzy hairy ones look great with your new rug! Fuzzy ones just don’t feel right with your new rug. Just love all your new pillows though! They tie in with your rug so well!!! Thanks for making us laugh! Every day!!!????????????
Eileen says
Morning Natalie.
Thank you for your instastories, I never swipe past yours, even though I live in Germany so half the info (like where to get something) is irrelevant for me.
Your blue cushion is also my favourite and I think it goes best with the beige, crochet one. Your rug is lovely and adds a great layer to your room. I dislike the cushion with the red in it and also faux fur ones, but they do all match.
Good luck with making a decision!
Regina says
“Really, Mom? Pillows, schmillows! Just look at this face, now can I have a treat, pleeease?”
-Chester ????
It’s hard for me to see beyond that cute, furry face but once I did, I’m loving your new/old rug and that yummy macramé pillow. Heart eyes all the way with that one and my second favorite is the heavily textured blue beaut. Yep, those are my top two, right behind Chester, of course. ????
Gina says
My fave is the macrame’ and the neutral with hints of color.
I love the rug!
Seems of late I’m drawn to colorful rugs and leaving most everything else neutral…maybe I will wake up with a “what was I thinking tomorrow”!
Beautiful!
Stephanie says
Hi Natalie! I love all of the pillows you purchased…all 6! The most important thing is that YOU love all of them and how they look in your space ????.
Blessings,
Stephanie
Melissa says
Hey Natalie!
I love the navy textured pillow & also the faux fur pillows. I always think any of the rugs that you put in your space are stunning! They always add that extra pop of color that’s needed when you have all white decor! In the first pic Chester’s like, “Mom, enough already!” Lol!! Keep doin’ whatcha doin’ girl! It’s gorgeous!
Have a blessed day!
Melissa Mooney says
I am LOVING the blue one with texture!!! You must keep that one! – I may have to get that one too – ???? you should keep the farmhouse sign too. Love it all!
Melissa says
Choice one is definitely the blue. But if you can go for a second, the black and white, and third choice (I mean that’s only half the options, right?!) would be cream macrame.
Delane says
The blue is my absolute favorite. The fringe one with gold things and a tie between fur and Macrame. I don’t like the one with the red stripe but you can’t go wrong with any of the others. So pretty!! Love your rug!!
Karlene says
I’d vote for all of the ones with colors, brings your eye up to couch level, maybe add a touch of muted color in the accessories to bring some color up to table and wall level?
Those pillows are great finds, I love all the texture they have!
jodi says
I love the rug! Where did you find it. I am leery to buy a used rug because we have a dog and if there are any animal smells, he may pee on it? Yours looks great. Do you shampoo used rugs when you get them? thanks!
Carolyn says
My fab. Is the pillow with red stripe. Second would be the navy with fringe. Loved the pop of color.
Sandi says
Hi, This room is gorgeous and the rug ❤️I’m Armenian so I love rich oriental rugs harking back to my heritage and yours is perfect. Question I don’t see any lighting I surmise you have it in the ceilings?
g0ldengl0ries says
Everything looks great! LOVE your house and your forthright touches. The pillows, YUM. I can’t write anymore, I have to go to WORLDMARKET …IMMEDIATELY!!
Crystal says
I LOVE old rugs! Serious heart eyes. My fave on the pillows, not that it matters, are: The textured blue one on the love seat, and I like the one with the little bit of red to relate to the rug. I’m with those who don’t like the fuzzy one(s). Just not a fan, but the ones with all the texture are divine. I couldn’t have one in my home with sparklies, my dogs would instantly be at them. As for your farmhouse sign, you didn’t ask for an opinion, I hope you don’t mind a comment…… I find “farmhouse” and “cottage” signs curious. Ditto for ones that say “laundry” or “Kitchen” we all know what room we’re in. And if I live in a farmhouse I don’t need a sign designating it’s one. Does that sound mean? I so hope it doesn’t! It’s one of my personal quirks. BUT I DO LOVE real, vintage signs! LOVE them. I enjoy your blog immensely, follow you on IG and love your style. So I hope that makes up for the sign comment. Love and kisses!

Blue lumbar is adorable! !
Monica says
Love the rug!! My favorite pillow is the blue textured one, it really works well with the rug. I don’t think you can go wrong with any of them, so I think you should keep your favorites! ❤️
Kellie says
Love the rug, Natalie! I don’t think you can go wrong with any of the pillows you decide to keep, they all compliment the new old rug perfectly! I also love Chester sightings! Have a great day, my friend!!
My Vintage Porch says
