Whether you are redecorating your living room or want to perk up the bedroom decor, area rugs are stylish home accents. They are trendy and functional at the same time. There are different materials to choose from such as durable wool rugs and chic recycled rugs. Rugs in neutral, earthy tones such as ivory, grey, beige and brown rugs can help spruce up the decor. Here are some dos and don’ts of decorating with rugs. Finding the Right Rug Size, pattern and color are three important aspects for choosing the right rug for any space. An easy trick to get the size of the rug right is by using a bed sheet. Lay down a sheet on the floor where you want to add a new rug. Fold the sheet to get an estimate of the area that will be covered by the new rug. This simple trick also helps you change and try out new layouts with furniture and rugs. Many decor stores also have online tools that can help you choose rugs based on the dimensions of your room. As for the color and the pattern, there are many design variations you can try. Neutral colors like brown rugs and beige rugs are perfect for creating backdrops for home accessories in bold hues and striking artwork. They work as blank canvases for a room as you can mix and match different accessories and upholstery patterns with brown rugs and grey rugs. You can also choose to decorate with patterned rugs and keep your accessories and furniture simple and minimalistic. Chevron stripes and lattice patterns are chic contemporary touches for your home. Finding the Right Material Rugs of different materials such as wool rugs and recycled rugs are well-suited for different areas in your home. Wool rugs are the perfect choice for high-traffic areas such as entryways and kitchens. They are durable and available in an array of colors and patterns. In low-traffic areas such as the bedroom, try laying down rugs with textures like woven jute rugs. These textured rugs add a three-dimensional effect to a room’s decor. Rugs made from recycled materials like plastic bottles are eco-chic accessories for outdoor areas. These rugs are resistant to stains and mildew so they are low on maintenance while adding to the style quotient of your home. Choose the right rugs with these floor decor tips.
