O'Bannon Oriental Carpets

Introducing my new adventure. Majored in fiber arts, dabbled in ceramics, owned O’Bannon Oriental Carpets, and now I’m painting lampshades. Follow your bliss.

O’Bannon Oriental Carpets called 3 different neighborhoods “home” over the last 24 years, making countless friends along the way. Today I close the shop on what has been a colorful and fascinating journey.

Thank you, to everyone who came out to support the closing sale in this last month, to those who came to say “goodbye”, to those who sent friends my way, and to my neighbors in Regent Square.

It’s been my joy bringing the concept of “Art underfoot” into your homes.

Garden muses.

Saturday Sweetheart. Let’s start with this crazy Kaitag 3.07x7.08. Next a small batch of new inventory. Goodness, the color and patterns…it’s like walking into a painting. carpets

Garden creatures.

Love the neighborhood dogs who peek-a-boo in the shop window. Perhaps she fancied the Lion Gabbeh.

Evening

No matter what you are after, there's a rug in the shop for you! Whether it's bold patterns and colors to go with your balloons, or subtle colors and basic shapes to keep your zen in check, at 25% off the right rug is within reach.

O'Bannon Memorial Day-
Working towards your garden goals this weekend? What about bringing a touch of the garden inside with one of our natural dyed Tree of Life, Bidjar or Suzani rugs? ‘Art underfoot' isn't just a hashtag, it's a fact! Hand-woven by folks who understand how the colors and patterns work together (kind of like how you're planning your garden layout), these pieces are one of a kind works of art. Stop at the shop on Braddock Ave to talk with Kristen about taking one of these stunners home.

Overcome by its beauty? Or the 25% off SALE? Either way, she said “mine”!

Breathe some new life into your home-sweet-home with one of the gorgeous handmade rugs from the shop (currently on sale at 25% off). Don't be shy! Walk right in and pick through the piles (pun intended).

The garden opens.

Saturday Sweetheart. After a week of dark days and rain this gem arrived yesterday in the worst of the downpour.

Pysanky season has arrived. In our window lay colorful platters of eggs, decorated with the traditional Ukrainian folk designs, including some of our own. The word pysanka comes from the verb “to write” using a wax-resist method. Stop by and inquire within.

Fresh

Happy New Year. Saturday Sweethearts. .
