Decorating with accent area rugs is one of the easiest ways to revitalize, update, improve and beautify any room in your home. Accent rugs can turn a drab room into one full of color. Or you can use accent rugs to create a focal point or define an area of interest. Accent rugs can add warmth to otherwise cold tiles, stone or concrete floors. Accent rugs will protect hardwood floor or wall-to-wall carpeting. And the right accent rugs can tie together all of a room's décor elements.

Accent rugs are extremely versatile and can serve numerous purposes in your home. Whether you are decorating your living room, family room, bedroom, kitchen, hallway or patio, there's an accent rug that is right for you. Unlike wall-to-wall carpet, which is normally best kept rather neutral, accent rugs can bring colorful patterns and designs into your room without overwhelming it. Plus, unlike carpeting, accent rugs can be changed with the seasons - or your mood - and are yours to keep should you move.
If you are lucky enough to have wooden floors in your home, accent rugs are the perfect compliment. With a little care your wooden floors will last forever. They don't collect allergens the way carpet does, are easy to clean and provide a perfect background for a beautiful accent rug. But even if you have wall-to-wall carpeting you can still use accent rugs. Simply place them in high-traffic areas to protect the carpet or use accent rugs to tie a seating area together. You can even put accent rugs on the walls to create an interesting display!
The Importance of Using a Quality Rug Pad
Experts in the home décor industry all agree that every accent area rug requires a good-quality rug pad underneath it. Not only does this promote safety in your home by preventing the rug from slipping, it also increases the life of your accent rug and makes it much easier to regularly vacuum. Never use tape or adhesive to anchor an accent rug to your floor or carpeting. This can easily damage both the floor and rug.
The Miracle Hold Plus rug pads we sell at Rugs Direct come with a 10-year warranty. They are guaranteed not to mar, stain or discolor the floor and to hold your accent rug securely in place. They come in a variety of sizes and are reversible for use on either bare floors or carpeting. Also, most accent rugs manufacturers require that their product be placed on top of a quality rug pad in order to validate their warranty against defects in workmanship.
Remember, every rug needs a pad. Click here to see the high-quality, 10-year Miracle Hold Plus rug pads available from Rugs Direct.
Useful Information About Accent Rugs
Accent rugs are a wonderful way to add life and simple radiance to any room or space. While very practical, accent rugs also are a fun and convenient way to reinvent any space. Vibrant colors, schemes and styles help to anchor and define any area in a very strategic manner.
Accent rugs can be used to pull all of the design elements of a room together. They are helpful in breaking the monotony a large area in a room. They can also be used to blend together the hues and colors of other rugs in great rooms, dens or large eat-in kitchens. They are especially useful in blending, complimenting and creating colorful harmony with any room's décor or furniture.
An accent rug works wonderfully in cozy nooks or in larger rooms where small sitting areas can be created. To do this, use several accent rugs ranging in size from 2' x 3' to 3' x 5'. Small areas can be brightened up with an accent rug, like your foyer, bathroom or kitchen. In an eat-in kitchen, they are a wonderful and trendy way to merger the family eating area with the functional cooking area.
Accent rugs can be used in every room of the house to highlight or compliment existing rugs, carpeting or décor that may need a face-lift. For example, a nice accent area rug in front of the recliner can make that old, favorite sitting spot breathe new life.
Most importantly, an accent rug accentuates the floor. Whether you are seeking fun and color in the kid's room, a snappy statement in the kitchen, a bright new look in the bathroom, protection around the fireplace, or a cozy and comforting addition to the bedroom, den or living room, an accent rug can transform the room with minimal effort and expense.
Modern manufacturing techniques are making it possible to create accent rugs with sharper, brighter print definition, increased cushioning for a softer feel and ergonomic benefits, and improved stain resistance. This serves to increase their versatility. For instance, in addition to an outside doormat, add an accent rug to the entryways of your home to create a warm and inviting feel. The accent rug will not only offer protection for your floors by providing an additional "walk-off area," but will also add a splash of color to complement your room's decor.
