Cutting A Rug: Finding The Best Rug For Your Mudroom This Winter
November 28, 2018
Decorating your home can make it feel like it’s truly yours. But with a HomeGoods survey showing that only 20% of Americans feel happy with their current home decor, updating decor is sometimes necessary. One easy way to bring some new life to a room is by adding an area rug. So if you’re looking for a simple way to add some depth to a room, here are a few tips to help you choose the right rug.
You need the right size
One of the biggest mistakes homeowners make when it comes to choosing rugs is choosing the wrong size. Choosing the right size is especially important when you plan on putting a table over the area rug. For the best rug under a table, you should choose a rug that’s about two feet larger than the table on each side. And if you’re simply adding a luxury rug to a bedroom or office, it’s important to not choose one that is too small, as this will make the room look smaller. Going with custom rugs is a great option because custom size area rugs will be cut to the exact size you need.
Start with the rug
When you’re decorating a room, it can be a good idea to actually start with a rug. While many homeowners often choose a rug last, this can lead to clashing colors and patterns, especially if the rug comes and isn’t what was expected. By choosing the rug first, you can base the room off of the rug, which is the focal point. You can then match other room details like throw pillows, curtains, and other decor to the rug and that will help pull the entire room together.
Don’t match colors exactly
And lastly, it’s important to not be afraid to go bold with your rug. If you have a room that is mainly neutral colors and patterns, choosing a bold custom rug can add a pop of color to the room. If you choose a rug that is the same color as the rest of the room, the room will look very bland and flat. By adding in different colors and patterns, you can have some good contrast while still bringing the room together. A bright, bold rug can be just what your room needs.
With the right rug, a room can feel like an entirely new space. So keep these tips in mind and look for custom rugs to ensure you find the right rug for your home.
