UPDATED - Opinions needed on this area rug please

Okay, I've been on a search for an 8x10 area rug for the nursery. One that will not break the bank, unfortunately, I'm pretty much set on this one which is $$$ from Pottery Barn Kids. I would like opinions though on how you think it would look in the room:

Here's the rug:

Here's the room (furniture will be configured differently once the crib comes in) There is also no yellow in the room, but I think it will help break up the pink and green.

Here are my back up choices for rugs:

Same as above, but in green:

TIA

I love that first rug you posted, but I know how $$$ Pottery Barn can be. Are the other options also Pottery Barn?

yes! they are all pottery barn! Chat Icon I have not found anything CLOSE to what I have in mind for the room. There were some on sale options which were reasonably priced, but the 8x10's were no longer available Chat Icon

Can you see if you can get the PB on Ebay? I do really like your back-ups too - I don't think you can go wrong.

Have you tried ebay? Sometimes you can find cute PB kids rugs from another season for significantly less.

Thanks everyone! It really sucks having expensive taste! Chat Icon

I did try ebay over the weekend. I may wait it out a week or so and continue to check ebay, but I have a feeling I'm going to cave and get the rug.

honestly, i think the rug is so beautiful, and goes with the room so perfectly, that you might just have to splurge on it Chat Icon

your DD's room is going to be as gorgeous as the rest of your house Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

ETA: if you don't want to spend that much, is there any way you can get one of the smaller sizes?

I actually really like the last two.

Did you check out Rosenberry Rooms? Also Land of Nod-- they have rugs too, and while the prices may be comparable-- maybe there are some less $$$.

They are all beautiful! I saw something similar in Target a few weeks ago that matched one of their bedding lines. It may be worth checking out.

Re: Opinions needed on this area rug please

Can you hold out a bit and add that when it goes on sale? I feel like everything at PB ends up on the sale list within a few months.

Randi - I did check the other two sites, I think I just have my heart set on this one!

I also did check out target and they had nothing there. Unfortunately, I absolutely need an 8x10 rug as the room is quite large and I want it to cover most of the floor that is not already covered by furniture.

That's what I'm holding out for, but the control freak in me wants to make sure I have a rug in there before the baby comes home. I'm going to wait for a couple of weeks and see if it goes on sale after the new year.

Re: Opinions needed on this area rug please

I love the first one much better than the rest of the rugs. Of course the best one is the one that costs $$$. Unfortunately I feel it is always that way!

The first one is BEAUTIFUL!!

You are in Jersey, right? Do you have anyone who can check out the Tanger outlets in Riverhead for you? My mom got my DS a great rug at the PBK outlet there, maybe you can find something good there, you know?Chat Icon Chat Icon

I actually bought my PB LR rug off of ebay and saved a ton! I would also call Tanger and any other PB outlet in driving distance with the names of the rugs and ask if they have them. I have done this, they will check for you.

My one concern (bc I am very anal like this) is the shades of green. Your wall looks very sagey and a couple of the rugs look like the green is more of a lime shade. If thats the case I would definitely go with a rug that has less green and more pink/yellow.
