Teal and Pink Rugs

How a Pink and Teal Rug can Highlight your Room Decor

Pink and teal are two colors that can be combined to either convey a sense of elegance or youthful excitement. Whatever your style, decorating with a pink and teal rug can highlight your room’s decor by establishing the room’s tone and style. 

Decorating with a Pink and Teal Rug

Pink and teal area rugs are extremely versatile because of all the patterns, designs, and shades of color that they’re available in. When you’re decorating with a pink and teal rug, think about the overall style of the room and allow that rug to either be the focal point in a neutral room, the basis of the color scheme, or one of many colorful pieces. 

Choosing a Pink and Teal Rug

Starting your search for the perfect pink and teal rug may seem daunting, so here are some topics to consider when it comes to choosing your perfect rug. 

Position: One of the first steps is deciding how you’re going to position the rug with the other furniture and fixtures in the room.

• Living Rooms: The living room is where a rug can be placed entirely under the furniture, under the front two legs, or centered in front of seats/in the middle of a sitting area. 
• Dining Rooms: Rugs are commonly placed directly beneath the table, with it extending outward enough that the chairs can comfortably sit on the rug when they’re pushed in or pulled out. 
• Bedrooms: One of the most popular layouts for bedroom rugs is to have it under the bottom ? of the bed and extending outward, but that’s not the only option. You can place it completely under the bed, to the side of it, or have a small rug elsewhere in the room to establish another area, such as a reading nook. In a kids room, you can also decorate with a teal and pink shag rug for extra plushness and style.
• Kitchens/Bathrooms: Both of these spaces are a bit more defined because their fixtures are set in place, but you can use a pink and teal rug in these rooms as well. If you have the space, try placing a runner in front of a double vanity or along a kitchen island. If your rooms are smaller, a 2x3 pink and teal rug also works well in front of a single sink.
• Outdoors: You can always decorate with a pink and teal rug on your patio or in your backyard by a seating area or dining set. Ensure that your rug is safe for outdoor use before placing outside.

Size: Once you know how you’re positioning the rug, it’s time to finalize the size of the rug. Remember, the size will vary depending on how you layer it with your other furniture and larger accents.

Shape: Rectangular and round rugs may be the most common shapes, but pink and teal rugs come in other shapes, such as oval, square, octagonal, and more. Decorating with a differently shaped rug can set the mood as much as the rug’s actual design, so if you’re looking for an extra way to make a statement, consider decorating with a uniquely shaped rug.

Pattern: Teal and pink rugs come in many different designs and patterns to fit into a bunch of different design styles. Oriental and Persian rugs that feature teal and pink are great for more elegant and traditional spaces, but you can also find rugs that show off abstract artwork, geometric shapes, or even actual artwork for more contemporary spaces or kids’ rooms. 

Shades/Pairings: Both teal and pink are available in many different tones and brightness, and it’s often the brightness or dullness of these colors that makes it fit into certain design styles. Richer, deeper colors can fit well with elegant designs, while pastels accentuate youthfulness and make the room feel brighter. You can also choose other colors to pair with teal and pink, such as cream, gray, red, blue, and so many other colors. Whatever your style, you can decorate with a pink and teal area rug that will make your room stunning.
