Rugs Offer Benefits Beyond Style

Area rugs can be that finishing touch for a room’s design and style. The perfect rug can tie the room together, bringing together all of the furniture and decor, while also making subtle colors of your room pop. But area rugs serve more purposes than just style: they can define separate spaces in your home, protect your glamorous wood floors and provide some sound absorption. And who doesn’t love sinking their toes into a plush rug? What does all of this amount to? A more comfortable, stylish, and personalized home.

Factors to Consider When Shopping for Rugs

What room is the rug for?
Is it a high traffic area?
Do you have pets or children in this area?
Will you be eating in this area?
Do you have furniture picked out for this area?
We reccomend measuring both your room and furniture before deciding what size rugs best suits your space.

Tips for Caring for Your Rug

Rotate your rug once a year.
Vacuum your rug with care, make sure your vacuum is set to the right height.
Use a rug pad to help with durability.
