The chair and rug are badass, compliments to your family’s artistic abilities. I’d be hard pressed to wipe my feet on such a nice rug, though haha.

It's great when the family gets involved- especially within the wheelhouse of their individual talents and interest!

I also like that your wife depicted your DC in the snowy mountains- like you would ever really drive there... Smile
