Monday mural: Straus Carpets

Straus Carpet has had their warehouses faced with eye catching murals.  So far their name is on a placard rather than on the building.  This attractive and colorful scene anchors a decidedly industrial corner here on the edge of Jingletown.  Pretty elegant, if you ask me.

If you like murals or have a mural you'd like to post, this meme's for you.  You decide what constitutes a mural.  Once you start looking, you find them all around.  Follow the Linky steps below.  Be sure to link back to this meme and visit your fellow posters.  Looking forward to the mural finds posted this week.

    To me carpets a murals don't don't seem to be a likely mix. After looking at the mural with it's brilliant colours I have changed my mind.

    Meilleurs voeux à toi! I sure like your mural better than "mine" and I find it very graceful.

    Nice clear mural with clear colors. Only the carpets are a bit to clear for a carpet. Still a nice mural.

    I like this one a lot. She's a little sexy and mysterious, but still classy! And the colors are bright and eye-catching. Nice way to advertise. :)

    I like the "Art Deco style but with a modern colour" feel to this one ;-)

    I have heard of draping oneself in curtains for a gown, but never carpets! :)

    Very eyecatching! I would have thought it was a store for fabric though. ;)

    Nice vibrant colors. Great use of what normally would be a boring warehouse wall.
