Butler Rolls Out Red Carpet and Other Hot Summer Rugs
She’s pushing petals again, that Amy Butler, introducing fabulously feminine and bold wool carpets that are blooming in late August. These are great handcrafted picks for perking up an existing space. You got the sofa, you got the pillows, you got the hot date. Now you need a flirty-perty rug, right?
The new line of 19 patterns in the Amy Butler for Chandra collection borders on the exotic with a modern scale and lively depth of field. If the motifs look familiar, it’s because we’ve shown you her similar bedding designs which smack of India chic. The organic bedding is sold at Bed, Bath and Beyond. The carpets complete the totality of the Butler bedroom.
“I had so much fun designing this line and learning about a whole new industry,” says Butler, otherwise known as the queen of Midwest modern style . “I even got to visit India to see rugs being made and meet the people who make it all happen – it was an amazing experience! I loved seeing each step in the process, the care and detail that goes into each rug is stunning.”
The rugs are 100% handmade from New Zealand Wool and semi-sustainable using no harsh chemical washes, the industry’s safest chrome dyes and natural latex adhesive.
Go to Butler’s site to see a slideshow of the rugs or order a carpet brochure.

It’s good to see things at least heading in the direction of sustainable. Luanne, what was the Palm Springs designer interview you did? It was fantastic, and her name has slipped my mind this morning. I remember wishing she was making a stronger effort to go green. Good to see Butler doing it!

Great post, thanks! I’m loving the oversized patterns and vibrant colour rugs. It makes them the focal point of the room!

Sara, that was Trina Turk. I agree. She is also moving in the right direction and wish she would do more.
