How to decorate using a round rug
Believe it or not, a rug can make a world of difference in any room. If you don’t have rugs on your floor and all of a sudden you buy a plain rug and place it in front of your TV or entertainment center, watch and see how many people will ask if you’ve changed your decor, or may say there’s something different in the room that they just can’t understand. Yes, a rug has a lot of effect in a room. Give it a try and see what kind of reaction you get with your friends, family and guests.
When you think of rugs, you think of rectangular or square rugs that fit perfectly on your floor. Dare you dream of adding a round rug to your decor? Maybe you have never tried to use a round rug in your decor, but the good news is that you can use a round rug to make your room look great. Round rugs can come in different sizes, materials, and colors. Adding these round rugs to a room can go a long way to highlight a certain area in your room.
How can a round rug help your living room? Let’s say your living room is large and you have a TV/entertainment center in one corner, a sofa, two chairs, and a loveseat in your living room, as well as a coffee table and two end tables. You may also have some other furniture scattered around, but these are the main pieces. If you want a focal point in your living room, simply place your sofa in front of your TV/entertainment center, but far enough back that you won’t strain your eyes while watching TV and you can walk in front of your sofa with ease. Then add the two chairs on either side of the sofa, but angle them to where they also face the TV. Add your coffee table in the center, facing the sofa, and place a round rug under your coffee table. You can also make sure that the rug goes under the front legs of the sofa and chairs. Doing this highlights a focal point in your living room. The only thing that you have changed is the way in which you have placed your furniture. Everything else stays the same. Your focal point is now on the round rug.
You can use the round rug to make any room brighter by choosing a bright colored rug. Rooms that should be bright include a hallway, bathroom, and kitchen. Hallways should be brightened up with a round rug because it feels cozier and warmer. You can use a round rug in your bathroom for a neat and clean look. In the kitchen you can add a round rug in the center of the floor or near the kitchen door so that the round rug becomes the focal point.
The material you choose for your round rug is a matter of preference. Some people like the antique look of rope woven rugs in a round design, while others prefer a natural look like bamboo rugs. In today’s world, we can make almost any custom selection when it comes to rugs that best suit our needs rather than everyone’s needs together.
