Roommates

Right now my son and daughter share a room.  That's fine for now.  But, in my head, I am always secretly decorating their separate spaces.  I wish each of them could have their own look.  Were I designing my daughter's room right now, she would have Anthrpologie's Malati 8' x 10' Rug ($499, was $999).  The colors are girly, the pattern is chic.  Love!<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-LpXdRbdpUZw/UppVwQhk3GI/AAAAAAAADqg/wdglslaj3mU/s1600/1479346_10151706702067563_1242756783_n.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-LpXdRbdpUZw/UppVwQhk3GI/AAAAAAAADqg/wdglslaj3mU/s320/1479346_10151706702067563_1242756783_n.jpg" width="240" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-yhs6l9WAsqA/UppVZEPJcYI/AAAAAAAADqY/ioGN_uyxuM0/s1600/Screen+Shot+2013-11-30+at+4.12.49+PM.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-yhs6l9WAsqA/UppVZEPJcYI/AAAAAAAADqY/ioGN_uyxuM0/s400/Screen+Shot+2013-11-30+at+4.12.49+PM.png" width="285" /></a></div>
