I had never seen (or really noticed) floor pillows until I started Maven. Once my in-country partner sent me that first collection I FELL IN LOVE! Our rug guys take vintage rugs and cut them up to make these lovely floor cushions. We are digging their latest collection, shop HERE!
Sometimes it’s hard to pick a bold pattern for a couch or chair in your living room and that’s where these beauties come into play! They can add so much texture and color to a room. I like to think of them as the chic version of a bean bag chair. Throw pillows, floor pillows, and poufs are such a great way to transform a room and keep transforming it year after year by simply swapping them out as our moods or seasons change:) Check out these beauties below!
A sneak peek at our latest fall rugs! Happy Shoppin!
We recently shot all of our fall/winter blankets and had to share a few of our favorite photos! We came across a cement wall that worked perfect for the industrial theme we were going for with the shoot. All of the pom pom blankets you see below, are handwoven by our artisan partner in Morocco. You can shop the below collection HERE!

On a recent shopping trip through the souks of Marrakesh, we found this incredible Azilal Rug! After posting a picture of it on Instagram, Designer Jolene Kraus knew she needed to have it! Check out how she styled her living room around this rug, it’s incredibly beautiful!

We were invited to be apart of a BLOGSHOP class, hosted by Bri Emery and Angela Kohler, last January! They were looking for a cozy corner and I think we nailed it with an abundance of colorful floor pillows and wedding blankets. A few pics below:)

We just started selling Azilal Rugs from the Moroccan Souks and I have become obsessed with these beauties! They are made by tribes of the Azilal province in the High Atlas Mountains of Morocco. They range from diamond, symmetrical patterns to free form abstracts and are all one of a kind pieces! Most vintage pieces date from the 1960s-1980s. They are made out of single tied wool with natural dye. I think they add the perfect touch to any room! Have a look below:)

We have been asked numerous times, ‘How do I hang a wedding blanket on the wall?’. I had an idea but the biggest obstacle, for me, was how do I attach fabric or anything really to the back of the blanket without ruining such a beautiful piece of art. Now I can’t sew on a button to save my life, so I knew I was going to need to find someone who could help me out! I stopped in my local dry cleaner (who also does alterations) and she told me ‘anything is possible, dear’, so obviously I trusted her with this little project. I told her I planned to hang this blanket on the wall with a rod. She said she would sew on a piece of scrap fabric on the back that the rod could slide into and that she would use invisible thread to attached it so you could not see anything in the front. It turned out perfectly!
As far as the rod goes, you can go to Target and get the most basic curtain rod, that will do the trick. I had my friend Erik help me hang the rod, I’m not so good with the power drill. Thanks for your help Erik, turned out beautifully!
The above wedding blanket is for sale and already has the fabric sewn into it. SHOP HERE!
