5 Ways to Decorate With Rugs
February 6th, 2018
Chances are, you have a space in your apartment home that could use a little “oomph” to really make it pop. Or, you may be wondering how you can add your own personal touch to your favorite room in your apartment. No matter the case, you should consider buying a few nice area rugs to decorate your apartment. Here are five ways to decorate with rugs.
Choose the Right Material
Aesthetic appeal is not the only factor that you should consider when buying area rugs for your home. You should choose a rug made of the right fiber type for your needs. For example, if you’re going to place the area rug in a space that receives a lot of foot traffic, the material you choose should be durable. On the other hand, the area rug you buy for a bathroom should be made from a soft and absorbent material.
Vivid and Eye-Catching
When it comes to decorating your home with area rugs, you should choose vivid colors and eye-catching patterns. The goal is to select area rugs that stand out significantly from the other furnishings. Be sure to select colors that complement or match the rest of the decor in the space.
Define Spaces
In open concept and large rooms, you can use area rugs to define the space. For example, you buy a runner rug to separate the dining room from the living room. You can also use throw rugs to designate sitting areas for the adults and play areas for the children in the living room.
Use Rugs As a Focal Point
If you want an area rug to be the focal point of the room, you should choose a rug that is beautiful enough to stand alone in a room. To make the rug the focal point, you should arrange furnishings around the rug. Another option that you have is positioning the furniture on the area rug.
Consider Unique Shapes
Rectangular- or square-shaped rugs should not be the only rugs that you consider. Choosing a rug that is uniquely shaped can be an easy way to add life and uniqueness to a space in your home. A circular rug is a step in the right direction, but you should consider shapes that are even more quirky.
As you can see, there are many ways to decorate a space in your apartment home with rugs. You should reach out to others in your community for more advice when it comes to decorating with area rugs.
