Magic Rugs

Hello to all of our lovely friends and customers!

I’ve been quiet around here because we have experienced a lot of changes over the last few months. Mahmoud and I have divorced, and he opened a store in NYC. We have left our spot in Canton.

Our daughter and I still live in Houston and plan to stay here. I still operate our Etsy store (with my helper - pictured!), and I am still available to sell vintage rugs to anyone who may want to reach out.

I wanted to give you all an update and assure you we are doing just fine :) I am going to keep this page as I decide in what direction I will move with it. I love rugs and weaving so much, so I don’t plan to ever fully leave them!

Thank you all for the support during our journey in Dubai, Türkiye, and Texas ❤️

Note to self: get myself some pink “ballerina princess shoes” to fully complete the matching business outfit

Arizona and California friends: Magic Rugs is a day trip away from you this month! We’ve set up shop at Tyson Wells in Quartzsite, AZ. Mahmoud is weaving his tapestries there, and he’s brought our whole collection of new and vintage carpets!

New antique carpet in stock! And something else new too… everyone, meet Georgie!
