Today was our first forray I to the world of carpet shopping. We've just moved into our dream forever home and are looking for carpet for the bedrooms upstairs, landing and stairs (though poss might have a stair runner). I want the same carpet throughout.
We only went to one shop, a local one, which had what seemed like a goud selection, but they all just looked, well... frumpy. They reminded me of carpets in my parents houses in the 80s and 90s and with all due respect to them and that era it's not what we're trying to recreate!
So how do we find non-frumpy carpet?
I like the knotty style (I think), but concerned its not soft enough. Or perhaps that isn't a problem if we get some nice rugs going on? Are there similar styles to the knotty ones that are softer? Or alternatives rather than big standard carpet IYSWIM?
We've got a big area to cover and I want to get it right!!
Any tips???
