After recently purchasing a new home, I found myself with a laundry room that is visible from the hallway. That's new for me, as my old one was in a basement utility room. My dog loves to hang out in there, so I leave the door open. It's the 1st time I cared what a laundry room looked like. It's been fun doing a little decorating to make it homey. This runner rug is perfect in front of the washer and dryer. It is wide enough span the width of both together. It doesn't slide or pile, and adds a touch of whimsy to the house. I'd like to say it makes doing laundry more fun, but let's be realistic. It's laundry... right? Anyway, I like it, my husband likes it and the dog does too!  :D
