Tips on Decorating with Round Rugs
Decorating with round area rugs is one of the easiest ways to revitalize, update, improve and beautify any room in your home. Round rugs can turn a drab room into one full of color. Or you can use round rugs to create a focal point or define an area of interest. Round rugs can add warmth to otherwise cold tiles, stone or concrete floors. Round rugs will protect hardwood floor or wall-to-wall carpeting. The right round rug can tie together all of a room’s décor elements. Best of all, round rugs are…round!

Round 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 a round rug that is right for you. Unlike wall-to-wall carpet, which is normally best kept rather neutral, round rugs can bring colorful patterns and designs into your room without overwhelming it. Plus, unlike carpeting, round 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, round 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 round rug. But even if you have wall-to-wall carpeting you can still use round rugs. Simply place them in high-traffic areas to protect the carpet or use round rugs to tie a seating area together. You can even put round 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 round 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 round rug and makes it much easier to regularly vacuum. Never use tape or adhesive to anchor a round 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 round rug securely in place. They come in a variety of sizes and are reversible for use on either bare floors or carpeting. Also, most round 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 round 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 Round Rugs
Round rugs are the perfect solution to many decorating problems. Round rugs are excellent choice when you wish to remodel or reinvent any room in your home. Round rugs are a small investment that can breathe new life and beauty into your home without the hassle and expense of a major renovation.
Round rugs have become very popular because of their versatility. Round rugs are not just for covering hard surfaces, although that is their most common application. Round rugs can be placed over wall-to-wall carpet to serve as a focal point, or under a dining-room table. They are an easy way to change the look of a room with hard wood floors. If your wall-to-wall carpet isn't in the best shape, a round rug can be a quick fix to conceal the wear and tear from years of use, while at the same time giving the room a much-needed makeover.
Round rugs have found favor among homeowners mainly because many newer houses feature floor surfaces such as tile and hardwood. Round rugs can warm up a room instantly, add splashes of color or define spaces in a room. They can also be modified or changed throughout the year with each passing season.
Rooms can easily be coordinated with round area rugs. They look wonderful in bedrooms and play rooms for children and lend an uncommon functionality in the kitchen or breakfast nook. They have always been a favorite accessory and continue to maintain their popularity in dining rooms and foyers. Integrating an area rug with décor is essential. If the rug will be your focal point, consider one with a central medallion. Choose a rug with a subtler pattern if your upholstery or wallpaper contains ornate patterns, Choose a round rug with colors that coordinate with your décor. A lighter-colored area rug will make the room seem more spacious; a darker one will create warmth.
Like rugs of other shapes, round rugs come in a variety of styles and fibers. Many round rugs use a combination for improved appearance or strength. Some common round rug fibers are:
- Acrylic — resists sunlight, stains and mildew
- Polypropylene (olefin) — stain-resistant and extremely popular
- Nylon —versatile, durable and easy to maintain
- Wool —durable, soft and is considered the superior fiber
- Cotton —softer than wool, but less durable
- Jute — the softest, but fades easily in direct sunlight; sensitive to
moisture
- Sisal —strong, durable and colorfast
