THREE WAYS TO STYLE A ROOM WITH AN AREA RUG
THE LAYERED LOOK
FULL COVERAGE
The look of two rugs layered one on top
of the other is quickly becoming a popular
way to add texture and pattern to a space.
Choose a neutral rug as a base and layer a
smaller rug in a bold print.
64
FEET FIRST
Set an area rug in the middle of the room
with the front feet of the furniture (sofa or
chair) sitting on the rug. This a great look that
will help anchor your furniture.
Place a large area rug that covers the entire
floor surface while leaving at least 12 inches
between the wall and rug. This is a cost
efficient way to camouflage worn floor
covering.
