A 6x7 area rug can highlight your room’s decor by fitting into the overarching style, reinforcing the color scheme, and setting the appropriate tone. Rugs, decor, and furniture should all work together to create one cohesive style throughout the room. With that mentality in mind, you will naturally choose items that complement one another and help you create your personal aesthetic.
6x7 rugs are not one of the most popular rug sizes, but that does not mean that you are lacking in styles or color palettes. Some rugs may fit into a traditional rectangular 6x7 rug, but 6x7 oval rugs are another prominent option. Other rugs in this size may feature abstract shapes and designs to create beautiful custom designs. These facets will enable you to find a 6x7 rug perfectly suited to your style and room.
When you are shopping for your ideal 6x7 area rug, it is important to consider a few key areas.
Position: One of the first steps of the process is to finalize your room’s layout and decide where to place your rug. This step will also help you determine the rug’s ultimate shape and if 6x7 is the right size. For layout ideas, here are some general guidelines.
Living Room: 6x7 rugs can work well in accenting main seating areas in small living rooms. You will likely have the front legs of the chairs on top of the rug, although the exact layout depends on the shape of your rug.
Dining Room: In an ideal dining room, you should have about two feet of extra rug on each side of the table. 6x7 rugs can provide that much space if you have a small dining room table, but you can also make this rug size work if you have a more restricted dining area.
Bedroom: 6x7 area rugs can lay beneath the bottom third or two-thirds of the bed, but it can also serve as an accent in the middle of the bedroom itself.
Office: Rugs of this size are large enough to accent a deskspace or a small seating area for guests/clients.
Outdoors: 6x7 outdoor rugs are great options for decks, patios, porches, or other outdoor spaces. For specific layout ideas, refer back to similar indoor spaces.
Material: The material of your rug heavily impacts its tone, texture, and comfort levels. Bamboo, sisal, seagrass, wool, and sheepskin are a few examples that showcase the diversity of materials available for rugs. Each material has its own set of pros and cons, which is why you must decide what you want your rug to accomplish in the room stylistically, comfortably, and practically.
Pattern: 6x7 rugs come in a variety of shapes, materials, and patterns, which impacts their overarching style and tone. When choosing a pattern that complements your decor, look at the rug’s design for imagery, patterns, or motifs that appear elsewhere in the room. Making simple, thematic ties through the rug’s design can help create a cohesive room.
Color: The color palette you choose for your 6x7 area rug will also depend on the room’s existing color scheme. However, it is important to note that each color has its own tone depending on the shade, depth, and color combinations. Even neutral colors like black and white have their own tones, so you can imagine the variety that comes with other colors like blue, red, pink, and green. Considering how color impacts the tone of the rug and room as a whole is a vital part in choosing your ideal rug.
Where should you place a 6x7 rug?
Depending on the size of your room, a 6x7 rug can often be found in bedrooms, living rooms, and home offices. Be sure to leave at least 2 feet between the wall and the rug to give it a balanced feel and appearance.
Can you machine wash a 6x7 rug?
Some 6x7 rugs may be machine-washable, while others may require professional cleaning or spot cleaning with a damp cloth. It's important to check the care instructions provided by the manufacturer before attempting to machine wash the rug.
How do I prevent my 6x7 area rug from slipping?
To prevent a 6x7 area rug from slipping, you can use a rug pad underneath the rug. Rug pads provide a non-slip surface and help to keep the rug in place, even in high-traffic areas. Rug pads can also help to protect the rug and extend its lifespan by reducing wear and tear.
