The Brussels Flower Carpet




At Mark Gonsenhauser's Rug and Carpet Superstore we sell some very impressive rugs, but nothing like this!


Every year since 1971 the city of Brussels Belgium creates a beautiful carpet in the main square made entirely of flowers. The colors and patterns are just stunning!   


From the website:
"The actual making of the Carpet is based on a plan worked out in advance, consisting of several stages. Everything starts, often a year in advance, with projects and scale models, illustrating a commissioned theme (such as the commemoration of great events, or the arms and shield of a town, and sometimes the proposals of local horticultural associations). "


Here are some photo's of past "Carpets."













Come visit our 20,000 square foot showroom in the heart of Virginia BeachVA. No matter what your style is…….

"I Got Your Rug!"

Amy Butler Design Handcrafted Rugs

Lacework rug by Amy Butler Design
We are happy to announce the addition of Amy Butler Designer rugs to our product lines.
In fact we are the only rug retailer in Hampton Roads that carries Amy Butler handcrafted rugs.

Here is some information to get you acquainted with Amy Butler Design and why we are excited to offer her designer rugs.


Amy Butler is definitely on to something. As a former contributing editor for Country Living Magazine and now at the helm of her own multi-product design business, she is someone to follow.


Her style is a mix of modest contemporary and updated country and is a look that has been coined "Midwest Modern". With exuberant patterns and lovely colors her style gets your attention and pulls you in.


Georgia Rug- Amy Butler Design 


"I started making small passport sized bags while living in Kansas City in the late 80's. There was a great energy about it.....I started thinking about those little bags that I had made less than 10 years ago. I wanted to create that feeling again so I started my sewing pattern business. My company, my brand, is really just a great vehicle to share my work. I love meeting other artists and trading notes. I love the process. Everybody has a personal story, and a personal creative voice. I just want to help my "friends" realize it." (From Amy Butler website).
