Teal Rug Runners

How a Teal Runner Rug can Highlight your Room Decor

Stylizing your room with a teal runner rug can highlight your room’s decor by furthering the design style of the room, complimenting the colors of your decor, and serving to tie it all together for one cohesive space. Whether your style is modern, traditional, or anywhere in between, decorating with a teal runner can fit in with your design style and complete your room. 

Decorating with a Teal Runner Rug

When decorating with a teal rug, it’s important to consider what decor and accents you pair with it. While this can vary from room to room, remember that no matter which room you’re decorating, you don’t have to mimic the exact shade of teal you see in the rug. In fact, differentiating the exact hue but maintaining the same tone and mood is a great way to bring distinction to your room and allow each item to have its moment to shine. 

Choosing which Teal Runner Rug is Right for You

When it comes to narrowing down your search, there are several topics you can consider with how you plan to use the rug in your home. 

Position: The first obvious step is to decide which room you’re placing the rug in, but an important secondary step is determining where you’re placing the rug and how it connects to the rest of the room. While teal runner rugs are often seen in entryways, kitchens, and bathrooms, runners can also work in other rooms, such as living rooms and bedrooms. Here are several ideas to get you started. 

Living Rooms: A teal runner rug can work well in smaller living rooms, whether you place it in front of a small sofa or behind it in a pathway/walkway.

Bedroom: A teal runner rug can fit well up against one side of the bed if your bedroom is smaller or if the bed is placed in a corner and only has one side open. This is a great option because it gives a soft place for your feet to land in the morning and adds in that warmth and color on the floor.

Entryway: Runners naturally fit in many entryways, and choosing to decorate with a teal runner rug can be the perfect way to add in your personality and style.

Bathroom: Bathrooms can use runners along the entryway if it’s a narrow path or in front of a double vanity.

Kitchen: Kitchens often use runners in the same way that bathrooms can: placed in front of sinks or areas where you frequently stand still. Runners can also be great walkways for kitchens as well.

Size: Runners come in several different sizes, so be sure to look through all the options when deciding on which runner you want to use. Think about where the rug will be positioned and how it relates to other furniture and fixtures so that it’s not too big or too small for the space. 

Pattern: Patterns can also convey certain styles, although some patterns jump from one style to the next. Teal runners that have Oriental or Persian designs tend to fit in with more traditional interior design styles or elevated farmhouse and coastal styles. Other designs that are composed more of geometric shapes, stripes, and abstract color blending are typically paired with more modern styles. 

Shade: Teal comes in a variety of brightness and tones, so choose a teal runner rug that shows off the shade that fits your room’s mood. Some teals that are bright and vibrant convey more youthful tones, while muted teal rugs can add an air of sophistication. Distressed teal runner rugs also convey a sense of hominess, and in general, they fit in well with more rustic styles like coastal and farmhouse styles. 

Blends: Teal rugs can be purely teal, but oftentimes, they’re combined with other colors. Teal runner rugs tend to use teal with brown, gray, and black, but there are plenty of others that use more bold colors like orange and red in their designs. Regardless of what design style you’re pursing, the brightness and pairings of the colors are essential in establishing the mood of the room.
