It all started when I was in search of my own rugs back in 1996.  I've always had an appreciation behind the art that goes in to creating a rug.  An opportunity arose so I decided to become part of an existing rug store here in Louisville.  I learned a lot in six years.  In 2002, I decided to go on my own and never looked back.  My goal was to create a rug gallery, where our clients felt comfortable shopping and had a positive experience while receiving the best customer service!  I wanted an inventory that was more unique, and special than any other store.

My philosophy has proven to be a success. In the process, I have met incredible people and made some amazing friends, all while helping them find what they were looking for. I am thankful every day! The day Anabel's Oriental Rugs feels like work, I will have to move on.
