CanvasRebel Profiles Blue Parakeet Rugs Founder

CanvasRebel, the platform behind VoyageLA that features “Conversations with Entrepreneurs, Artists & Creatives,” profiled our fearless leader Sheba for their November 2023 Stories & Insights, and we are so excited to share it with all of you!

The wide-ranging interview includes behind the scenes stories and perspectives from Sheba about her life, her background in entrepreneurship, and what it takes to keep this Blue Parakeet Rugs show running 24/7. Sheba discusses her beloved uncle Joseph, her mentor in the rug business who taught her so much about how to find, restore, and authenticate these ancient treasures. She also talks about growing Blue Parakeet Rugs from a small Etsy store to a major brand now in partnership with taste-setting companies like Anthropologie.

The interview is a testament to the power of dreams and inspiration and how a visionary can shape a community out of a passion. As Sheba says of the world of rug lovers she’s built especially on Instagram @blueparakeetrugs, “What truly sets my heart ablaze is the sense of community that has flourished around my work. My shop is more than just a physical space; it’s a shared adventure.” Head over to CanvasRebel to read all the details and find inspiration in Sheba’s incredible vision and passion for her work and this beautiful community we call Blue Parakeet Rugs.
