FLOR Review & {GIVEAWAY!!} CLOSED

Having children, I have discovered, means counting on almost everything being taken over by a little person, ripped, stained, and often destroyed. Even though I count on my son doing all of the above to everything I own, I still can't bring myself to give up on style.
The first time I came across FLOR rugs, I knew we were soul mates. The amazing thing about FLOR is you have the option to buy rugs tile by tile. This means that if my son "accidentally" pours red juice on my rug, I only have to replace a single tile instead on an entire rug.
Also, because you are able to buy tile by tile, you can customize your rug to reflect your personal style and bring together several colors from within the room. Because FLOR is eco-friendly, using renewable and recycled materials, you won't feel guilty about the overwhelming desire to cover every room in your home from wall to wall with FLOR carpeting.
FLOR offers extremely chic options that I am dying to get my hands on. Check out some of my favorite rugs:
This is the Souk Chic Rug Kit. I love all the colors and the perfect design.
I am in love with the Subtle Shift Rug Kit. So classy, but simple.
I desperately want to own the Fedora Rug. I love the shapes and pretty yellow.

This is the Velvet Twist Rug Kit. Gorgeous!
I had the opportunity to review a 5x7 (12 tiles) area rug. I decided on the Shiny Happy Stripe in Platinum. I chose this particular design because I knew it would be perfect in almost every room and it is very versatile so if I decide to add more tiles to it in the future, I can. It arrived in a box with all the materials and instructions I would need to put together my rug.
I laid out the tiles in the design I desired, lifted the corners, and applied the FLORDots to stick each tile together. The dots have a cross on them so you can center the dots on the tiles perfectly.
FLOR rugs uses stain resistant material and fiber, making cleaning the rugs easy. If there happens to be a spill, remove a tile and wash it at the sink. FLOR thought of everything, didn't they?
WIN IT!!
