I was a little worried about what my runner would look like in person but when it arrived I thought it actually looked better in person! The used denim part sounded bleh, but I ordered it anyway because the colors were exactly what I was looking for and I loved the fact that it was handmade.. It looks great by my backdoor behind my couch and complements my living room rug perfectly. What's even more surprising is how much my dog loves to lay on this rug! Needless to say, we're both very pleased with this runner. I've already recommended the item to my mom and sister :) It's a nice sturdy rug, perfect for backdoor traffic with my dog going in and out every 5 minutes.
