SNUG AS BUGS IN RUGS
I think area rugs are amazing! I love the warmth and the kick they can give a room. I love the functionality they offer, the protection to my hardwood floors they present, and the pop they give to an otherwise boring, cold tile floor (I love tile, don’t get me wrong!).
Bold colors and pattern choices are what’s super fun about area rugs. You can design a whole room around a rug.
Be SUNNY & FUN:
Be BIG & BOLD:
Be QUIET & SUBTLE:
Be ROMANTIC:
The idea of putting an area rug over carpet sends some designers to the moon!! That’s okay, out here where winter nights (and days) can get into the single digits and below, the more layers I wear the cozier I am. That goes for my flooring, too. I don’t mind layering a fantastic area rug over my already carpeted family room. And it’s a lot cheaper to replace an area rug than to re-carpet. So designers…..love ya, but I gotta be me! 🙂
