Title: Most Important Things To Consider Before Buying A Rug
1Most Important Thing to Consider When Buying a Rug
2Wool Rugs
One of the biggest mistakes that people tend to
make when purchasing an area rug is assuming that
they know what the right size for the rug they
need is. The goal is not to think about it at all
but to get out a tape measure and take some
measurements. In a kid's room, you may need to
purchase an off size or something that is large
enough to fit under their furniture. Getting the
size right is your first step to finding the
right area rug.
3Silk Rugs
"Whether 100 silk or a silk blend, the inclusion
of silk in a rug creates a luxurious shine that's
unmatched by other fibers," says Alessandra Wood,
the vice president of style at online interior
decorating service Modsy. In addition to its
sheen, silk rugs are often thin, fine, and soft
to the touch.
4Cotton Rugs
Cotton is an inexpensive and playful rug material
that serves as a budget-friendly alternative to
higher-cost rugs made of wool or silk.
5Jute and Bamboo Rugs
Jute and bamboo are natural rug materials that
can add a coastal vibe to any indoor space.
"These are a nice choice for rooms needing
texture and their economical price point makes
them a good value, especially in areas where a
large rug is needed," Toombs says.
6Leather, Hide, and Sheepskin Rugs
"Leather and sheepskin rugs are made from those
animals' hides. Leather rugs can be woven strips,
while hides and sheepskins are full animal
hides," Wood says. "These are great pieces for
small spaces, awkwardly shaped rooms, and
luxurious layering."
