Area rugs come in all shapes, including square, rectangular, hexagon, octagon, oval and round. With the wide range of rug materials, styles, designs and shapes that are available, you are sure to find several that are just right for your situation.

We’ll show you lots of useful tips for decorating with area rugs as well as valuable information on their care and cleaning.

There's also a section about the terminology used when discussing rugs and rug making.

When the time comes for you to pick an area rug (or more than one), ask yourself these questions:

  • How much foot traffic will the area rug get and will there be children or pets on the rug?
  • Do you want a rug to fit in with your existing furniture or furnishings or will you get new furniture and/or furnishings to go with the area rug?
  • Do you want the rug to draw attention to some part of the room or to create a theme?
  • Will the rug be used for artistic expression or to personalize your environment?
  • Do you want a rug that will last for decades and become a family heirloom?

Some of these things may not apply in your situation while other items may deserve some consideration before making the final decision about picking the right area rug(s). You’ll be able to see for yourself what is best for different circumstances.

Another thing to consider is if the rug will be in an area where there is moisture and/or wet feet, such as near a shower or a bathtub. If so, be sure to get a rug that is well-suited for the conditions.

You'll be glad to know that there are plenty of area rugs to choose from, no matter which style suits you best or how much your budget allows!
