With cold temperatures on the way, we here at One World Market stay warm by wearing Fair Trade wool ( of course! ) and by looking forward to Spring!
We recently received a wonderful preview of some indoor/outdoor woven rugs that are produced in Senegal. Perfect for an outdoor deck or patio, we squealed when we saw the punch of color and pattern.
Two things Durhamites love: outdoor living and color! And we have to agree. A morning at the Farmer’s Market followed by a hike at the Eno – what could be better?
Following it up with a homemade meal (or glass of wine!) on your deck or patio of course! Which would be all the more fun with one of the gorgeous rugs:
Other color choices available in the zig-zag pattern:
We love the idea of bringing a bit of Africa to your home with these rugs. In Senegal where these are produced, the locals call them “Mingle Mats”.
Find a group of women weaving together in Senegal, or a family dining together, and chances are you will also find a Mingle Mat. These gorgeous African outdoor rugs are produced in a lively weaving facility in Dakar, Senegal's capital city, from long strands of extruded plastic.
We are so excited to bring these rugs to Durham this Spring!
