Creative Accents

For over 50 years and across three generations, the Hensler family has been handcrafting custom area rugs. The family tradition began when founder, Ken Hensler, brought his creative vision to life with his wife’s sewing machine – crafting what became one of the world’s first "Shag" rugs in the early 1960’s. Today, Creative Accents continues to provide the finest, hand-crafted area rugs, made-to-order to our customers’ exacting specifications, under the leadership of Mike Hensler, Ken’s oldest son, and Andy Hensler, Ken’s oldest grandson. We continue to craft each Creative Accents rug in the United States, from US-sourced materials, other than wool, which we source exclusively in collaboration with Wools of New Zealand. Since 1967, we have followed the same principles on which we were founded: Excellence – that anything worth doing is worth doing well; Beauty – that the spaces in which we live, work and play carry inherent beauty that should be brought to life through design; Family – that what we do matters but not as much as who we do it for and that we share it with those we love; and long-term Sustainability, which includes profiting from our labor for the benefit of our employees, community and future generations.
