What to do if your home doesn’t have a designated office area? You create a space within a space. Try using a table as a desk. You get much more surface space to work on than a traditional desk. Grab a funky lamp for some good lighting. Throw a bookcase in the corner, and it provides all the storage you need. Use a decorative case for all of your pens, pencils, etc. Now you have a workspace that adds an attractive corner to your room.
An area rug is a large, movable rug designed to cover part of a floor. It is typically placed under furniture to define a space, add comfort, and enhance room décor.
Yes, area rugs are worth it. They add warmth, reduce noise, protect your floors, and tie your furniture and color scheme together for a finished look.
Yes, you can layer an area rug on carpet. It’s a great way to add texture, define a space, or bring color and pattern into a neutral room. Just make sure to use a rug pad for grip.
The point of an area rug is to bring comfort, style, and structure to a room. Rugs help anchor furniture, absorb sound, and protect your floors while adding a visual focal point.
Vacuum regularly to remove dust and dirt. Spot clean spills immediately. Follow your rug’s care tag for deep cleaning instructions. Rotate the rug every few months to ensure even wear.
Clean the rug thoroughly, roll it tightly with the pile facing inward, and wrap it in breathable fabric or plastic. Store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight or moisture.
No, an area rug should not touch the wall. Leave 6 to 18 inches of bare floor between the edge of the rug and the wall to create a balanced, intentional look.
