you may or may not know that i am absolutely in love with rugs, a lot! if you were to ask my husband just how much i love them, {who by the way banned me from purchasing any more} he would tell you… we have at least one in every room and that doesn’t even count the ones away in storage on account that there is no floor space left. so um, yeah….i like rugs.
rugs can bring so much life to your home with texture, color and pattern – plus they soften the hard floors and say to your feet “please stand on me”. they come in a variety of sizes and colors so you can personalize them for your home. just make sure you choose the correct size for your space {a mistake i have made a few times}. when choosing the correct size for your living/family room, make sure when everyone sits down their feet rest comfortably on the rug. your rug should also be somewhat centered with the room and allow enough room for people to walk around it yet not being so small it looks “dinky”. when putting one in your dining room, people should be able to scoot in and out from the table without going over the edges of the rug. you get the picture.
so liven up your house with some pattern, texture, and color. your eyes, mind and feet will thank you.
what are you favorite types of rugs? do you have one? two? or a hundred like me? have a picture of your favorite rug? then don’t forget to link up!
I LOVE that yellow striped one!

That second one is so beautiful, we have so much dust in our city, no way I could keep a rug clean, not even for an hour.
Those in the third are gorgeous!

Where are the rugs in the second picture from?? I love them!
I'm also having a hard time finding a cute rug for my kitchen… Any ideas??
It is from west elm. I would also check at west elm for kitchen rugs {I have one in my kitchen from there} UO, anthropologie , dwell studio, and target are also good places to shop for rugs.
I only have a ugly carpet that came with my room (I'm living in a student house). I would love to have a pretty rug though 🙂
