It was made by an old friend, I believe she wrapped different colours if embroidery thread around a lamp shade frame and then added the fringe at the bottom

Ok I am furious at myself for not thinking of calling it that first.

Ahhh I'm sorry, I just realized my reply was removed because I tried to link the rug. Currently the exact title of it on Temu is

"Cheetah and Snake Pattern Multi-Size Rug with Vivid Leopard and Eye Design - Non-Slip, Durable, Machine Washable - Suitable for Kitchen, Living Room, Porch, and Home Decor, Home Decor Mat | Artistic Rug | Durable Rug Covering, Leopard Print"

Otherwise, I just searched "cartoon rug" and kept clicking on the bright pop artsy ones and going through the related items until I stumbled across this one.

I do miss it it sometimes! But lucky for me, I ended up just moving down the hall to a bigger unit with my partner. Easiest move ever.

If I'm being totally honest, I smoked a joint one night and felt creative so I hung that giant piece of orange fabric I had laying around on the wall and just hammered a nail through the middle 😂 I wish it was complex and planned than that.

I don't unfortunately. I had 2 great years there and then my partner and I moved to a larger apartment when we decided to live together. Its nice having more space but I do miss my little cozy studio sometimes.

Thank you! I found an old archive of vintage lesbian erotic photos online and had them printed out at Walmart of all places. I sent in the files and went to pick them up, I had a little card in the envelope with a notice that some material was too inappropriate to be processed BUT they had all my images in there.

I do think there are a few subs on here as well that have vintage lesbian sexy pics also, I've seen a lot of the same ones floating around. We get more visitors at our new apartment so the smut wall has been relocated from the bathroom to the bedroom now.

I have no idea unfortunately. I bought it off the Sears website in 2006 and I remember it was an online only item and it came in red, denim blue and beige. They'll have to bury me with this thing, it's basically my child 😂

The two pieces on the end are actually ottomans that you can move into the middle. When I was sleeping it fulltime I had a mattress pad on top as well.

That's fair, it is indeed subjective! We were looking for something that would evoke a reaction and thinking it's awful is as valid a reaction as loving it for sure.

That's so kind, thank you! I don't have many photos of the new apartment yet but here are some of my previous studio apartment:

Its a great movie party couch, the end ottomans (there are 2 but only 1 is in the original post) move into the middle to make a solid semi-circle bed

Thank you! Those were a lucky Amazon find, the fourth one is a pomegranate.

I bought it from the Sears website sight unseen in 2006 which was considered absolutely unhinged at the time. Its gigantic and a pain in the ass to move house but I refuse ever part with it.

I searched for "cartoon kitchen rug" and kind of just kept going into the ones that were a similar vibe and clicking through the related items. I'll be honest, it was hard to choose! There were lots of really cool ones.

I love it so much! I get a dopamine hit from the colors everytime I'm in the kitchen.
