The Amazing Power of Rugs

Want your home to have a new fresh look, but don’t want to renovate a whole room? The best way to get a new look is to use rugs. Introducing a few new rugs into your home can make all the difference in the world and give the room a fresh new look.

If your room needs some help going from plain to jazzed up, consider a large decorative rug. If the room is already full of color go the opposite direction and get a plain neutral rug, so it will not clash with all the other colors in the room. The ideal situation would be to design the room around the rug, so you can get different decorations and textures that do not clash with the rug. Be careful of patterns, when introducing a new run into a room. Make sure they match or the room will look disjointed.

When thinking of what a rug will do for the room, you have to consider the color and the wear of the area in which you are going to place it. If you want a rug for a high traffic area in your home, such as a door way or hallway, consider getting a darker color rug, as it will help hide some of the wear and dirt from walking. Places that do not get a lot of traffic can be spruced up with a lighter color rug. If you are just sold on a light rug for a high traffic be aware that you will have to clean or wash the rug on a regular basis to keep it looking its best.

For redecorating in the bathroom make sure to get rugs that will complement the color scheme of the room and tile. Also, make sure that the rugs that you do get are water and mildew resistant, as they will most likely get wet at some point.

Try and think out what you want the room to look like when planning a redecoration, as it will help save time and money. Rugs can get expensive too, so planning can help keep your budget on track. Get creative and make your house look comfy
