which rug for 6 year old boy's room?
This is his headboard:
This is his bedding
Walls are light blue to a white chair rail then beige on top
Floors are light oak (like the last carpet pic)
Here are my rug options
#1- stripey fish (I LOVE this one! It's fun and the stripes match his bedding & headboard). Cost: $200 for 5x8 with free shipping

#2: school fish (I LOVE this one too! It's less child oriented so it could also work in another room (or for when he is older). Cost: $480 for 5x8 with free shipping
also comes in light blue
thoughts?
Re: which rug for 6 year old boy's room?
I like the third option. Light with the dark fish. Or, I'd go with a chocolate solid colored rug. A tan to coordinate with the tan in the bedding could work too. Or, even just solid blue.
With the headboard and bedding there is already a lot of pattern.
This, except, I like the darker rug better, as I thin stains would show less.
good points..
I did wind up going with the first on because of the price (and I was able to use a coupon to save another $20! I also grabbed their last one as they are now sold out)
Hopefully, with the plain floors, neutral walls, & simple curtains it wont be over kill with pattern.
Well, it seems like you already picked...
I like 2 best by far. #1 is AWESOME but there is so much pattern going on already. The headboard and comforter are very busy and I worry the rug would be overkill but it is a cool rug and if you like it then that's what counts! You can always get a more basic comforter down the line if it's too much.
