Boucherouite




My newest obsession are Boucherouite rugs. These Moroccan "rag rugs" are handmade by Berber women using scrap pieces of wool, cotton, nylon, plastic, and synthetic fibers...basically anything they can find. Quite resourceful and beautiful!

  1. I love these! I like rugs that aren't fussy but aren't cutesy either, which can be hard to find. These are amazing!

  2. I died over these when I was in Morocco. You should have seen some of the patterns - absolutely amazing!
