You know us here at this blog. We love area rugs. Honestly we would put area rugs anywhere. What room is the best for area rugs? Duh, every room! We would throw a few handknotted area rugs in the back yard if it was up to us. Bottom of the pool? Why not?!
Obviously all of that would be insane for people less obsessed with hand knotted rugs than we are. There are certain rooms though that benefit exponentially from the presence of an area rug. The dining room for example. Placing an area rug with the dining room table in the center can be a great way to tie a room together. It creates an awesome pattern that feels very comfy.
Bedrooms also have perfect spaces for area rugs. A smaller one for example in the space not occupied by your essential bedroom furniture(bed, dresser, etc.) is a great way to avoid walking on cold wood floors when running from the bed to the dresser. It can also really make a hallway more hospitable for bare feet.
There are rooms that are simply made for area rugs and then there are those in which you have to get creative. Why not start by slipping an area rug into one of these rooms, we’ll try and convince you of the pool one at a later date.
