Where to Place Area Rugs in Your Home It wont be wrong to say that I am a rug enthusiast. When I see a great design I have to have that rug in my home. It has its perks but most of the time it becomes hard for me to decide which rug goes where. Also the sentiments attached with the old ones makes it difficult to find a place for new ones. So after a lot of shifting and shuffling I finally placed my rugs where they are now. And I am pretty happy with their placement as such which I am going to share with you. Ill tell you which type of rug is perfect for which part of your home. Living Room I was pretty happy with my straw coloured wool and jute rug till I came across a dashing shaggy rug from Rugs Beyond Mississauga. I decided instantly that it goes in my living room. It is so soft under my feet that I couldnt have asked for a better one. It looks beautiful in my living room and adds a nice texture to the whole ambience. I must say it wasnt a bad idea at all to replace my old rug. Dining Room I had a hand tufted rug in my dining room before I laid my eyes on a wonderful outdoor rug. It was beautifully designed elegant and quite durable. Not that I had anything against my hand tufted rug but I was craving for a change. So I went for the outdoor rug for my dining area. Yes you can use outdoor rugs inside your home as well. It doesnt make a difference. In fact use them in high traffic areas. Owing to their durability and ease to maintain they have a relatively low wear and tear as compared to other types. So you can go for them anytime. You can also place them in laundry area although Ive used hand tufted rugs in my laundry area. Bedroom I always look for area rugs that are soft smooth and having a soothing colour scheme for my bedroom. Loud furnishings in bedroom can cause an increase in stress levels. Right now I have soft shaggy rugs in my bedroom. They are good to step on barefoot. I have chosen one in beige as its always been my comfort colour. You can have your pick according to what soothes your senses. Patio No points for guessing outdoor rugs go there. I had one in bright colours before but it faded with time. I guess the quality was not befitting outdoor use. Anyway Ive steered clear of bright outdoor rugs since then regardless of the quality. I choose dark tones for outdoor rugs because they hide stains of spilled coffee or juice. Be sure to wash them off instantly in case of a spill as you dont want permanent stains. Wash them every 3 to 4 weeks and they are good to go. So this is how Ive incorporated different types of area rugs in my home. I dont know if I did a good job there. What do you think
