Welcome to New England Home's online auction of custom rugs designed by our 5 Under 40 award winners! Each one-of-a-kind rug will be available for online pre-bidding through September 12, 2012. The final auction and sale will be at our gala 5 Under 40 awards and cocktail party on September 13, 2012 in Boston. See www.nehomemag.com/5under40 for details.
