Using rugs as a design tool

Rugs in interior designs brings a design scheme together.  They can be both decorative and practical, serving as floor coverings and wall hangings, but also as curtains on doors. 

The number one mistake people make when decorating with area rugs is getting ones that are too small. This is understandable, especially when you see the price tags for some of the larger rugs. However, going big now will save you from replacing one that doesn't work later. Besides, the cost of a rug is still lower than an entire room of carpet.

Don’t be afraid of colour and pattern area rugs are a great way to inject playfulness and fun into the room, so embrace color and pattern while shopping. There are many inexpensive options available, so if you decide you don't like it after a couple of years, it's easy to change.
