It’s the last stretch before spring—when winter seems to last forever—so it’s the perfect time to pick yourself up. We are so excited to present the CLJ x Loloi Spring Rug Collection!
Polly Smoke/Sand | Bedroom Sources
Featuring 26 new designs and fresh colors of fan-favorite rugs. These new collections will serve up so much space in your home (as well as ours!). They combine with rugs we’ve previously launched so you can connect rooms with these cozy pieces. Whether you’re looking to tone down the look of your formal dining room or add a touch of fun to your playroom, you’ll love how these cozy pieces fit the occasion.
We had an amazing reception for the carpet launch at Market Vegas last month. I can’t wait to share some of the stories behind these mats (including how Kenny G inadvertently got involved in the launch).
Bradley Teal/Teal | Bradley Collection | Laundry sources
I named this line after my maiden name and it is really special to me. They feel like the most classic rugs that can go anywhere. These hand tufted rugs are 100% wool with a high and low pile for a nice textured look. That texture feels great under your feet too — it’s like a foot massage when you walk on one!
Briggs Mist/Ivory | Briggs Collection | Izvori dining room
Named after my longtime friend Meagan Briggs, this one is a throwback to the check rug we had a long time ago. I worked with Loloi to put it our own way with the addition of a border, and they loved it so much they wanted to do a whole collection of colors. The name and pattern are tied to parts of my past, and that means a lot! This 100% hand tufted wool rug gives a two tone heather effect which is great for high traffic areas as it will hide wear and tear. Just a beautiful modern look.
Judy Natural/Ivory | Judy Collection | Sources from Polly’s room
This is a fun little collection with a name that plays on one of its main fibers. This one will delight everyone: it is hand-woven from jute, cotton and other fibers. Jute in the weave gives a natural effect and a firm structure, yet is incredibly soft for jute. The cotton also adds just that extra level of comfort. I often get asked “Would you really like to wake up to a jute rug in your bedroom?” If it’s one of these, yes! I currently have pieces from this collection in our entryway and in Polly’s room. (Hint: They’d also be great for stairs.)
Polly Navy/Silver | New to the Polly Collection | Bonus room sources
Next, we’re releasing new colors for the Polly rug collection, named after my daughter. This has been one of our most popular collections and often sells out, so I wanted to expand that line. People might think it’s crazy to add navy blue to this line, but we don’t shy away from deep, rich colors. Adding this rug to the bonus room makes it my new favorite room in the house (again). What a moment for Nancy Meyers to have a blue carpet in blue panels! It’s just the most flattering shade of denim. These rugs are hand woven from cotton and jute and I consider them an instant classic.
All rugs are made in India and are GoodWeave certified, which means they meet high standards for ethical production and support for weaving communities.
Now for the moment you’ve been waiting for: What does a smooth jazz artist have to do with our CLJ x Loloi rug launch? It’s a funny story.
At the Las Vegas World Market, we planned a meeting to unveil the CLJ x Loloi rug collection. The day before, the organizers of the event organized a performance with a special guest, that — you guessed it — Kenny G. They kind of staged him in front of the Chris Loves Julia x Loloi collection, so the whole performance was in front of our new carpet line. He actually kept noticing our collections! So it seems he was our “unofficial” celebrity for this spring launch. A childhood dream, realized.
I hope you love these new collections as much as I do! Let me know which ones you have your eye on.
