12 Ft Runner Rugs

Why A 12 Foot Runner Rug?

Looking for the perfect 12 foot runner rug to decorate your home? We have thousands of options from southwestern to nautical, and everything in between, so you're sure to find more than a few that would look lovely with your decor.

Interior decorators use runner rugs to set the mood for a home. Hall space is commonly neglected, but it has huge design potential. And with something as substantial as a 12 foot rug runner, you can change how people perceive your entire home.

The following ideas will show you how to use a runner like this in different situations. Each is inspired by professional decorating choices. Take a look to get a better idea of how you'd like to use your rug:

• You could place a 4x12 rug runner in a hallway that's around 6x14. This would keep 12 inches of space between the rug's edges and the walls, so the space doesn't look cramped. A 4x12 rug runner would also work in a hallway that's 8 feet wide.
• A 2x12 runner rug would work well in a thin hallway that's around 4x14 feet. This would keep space between the walls and the edges of the rug without making the rug too narrow to be useful. A thin, long shape like this would look wonderful in a bright color.
• You could use a 12 ft braided rug runner made from a durable material if your home has a long walkway at the entrance. The durability will allow your rug to stand up to frequent traffic without sacrificing style.

A Closer Look At The 12 Foot Rug Runner

Rugs are used to create the background for a space. They add color, texture, and patterns to make an area more inviting and comforting to be in. This is perfect to balance the sterile or dull atmosphere that many halls have. A 12 foot rug runner is ideal for long hallways that need a little something extra to feel cozy.

Because runners are often placed in the most trafficked zones in the house, you'll want to research care instructions for your rug's material. And consider making your home a no-shoes zone to protect your runner from excess soil.

Is A 12 Foot Runner Rug Right For Me?

If you have a hall that's at least 14 feet long, a 12 foot runner rug is exactly what you need. Measure the hallway's width and subtract 2 to 4 feet from it to find the ideal dimension for your rug. If your hallway is smaller than 14 feet long, select a shorter runner length.

Look at the questions below to decide on your rug preferences:

• What color(s) will go with my home's theme and existing decor?
• What material would I like my rug to be made from?
• How thick of pile would I like on my rug?
• Would I like to match my rug's style to my home's decor?
