Blue 6x9 Outdoor / Indoor Area Rugs

How a Blue 6x9 Outdoor Area Rug Can Highlight Your Room Decor

A 6x9 blue outdoor rug can highlight your other decor by contributing to the space’s color scheme and style. If you’re designing from scratch, then you can use your outdoor rug’s pattern and color palette as inspiration for what other colors you’ll incorporate. To take your design to the next level, look at the rug’s pattern and/or texture and find other ways to incorporate it into the decor. This way, the space is cohesive and each element works together to create a jaw-dropping space.

Decorating With a Blue 6x9 Outdoor Area Rug

When you’re decorating with a blue 6x9 outdoor area rug, you’re not limited to one shade of blue, type of style, or design. Even beyond all the different looks for 6x9 outdoor rugs, you don’t even have to use the rug outside! Because of their durability, these rugs can also fit into indoor spaces where you see a lot of foot traffic and messes. 

Choosing Which Blue 6x9 Outdoor Area Rug is Right for You

As you shop for your perfect rug, consider these key areas to help you narrow your search. 

Position: One of your first steps should be to determine where you want to place your rug. For a rug of this size, you’ll likely set it up with your main seating area. Depending on the size of the space and the furniture, you may have the rug entirely in front of the furniture or you may have the seats’ front legs anchor the rug. Otherwise, you can place it under a small dining set as long as there’s about 2 feet in excess on each side/end for the chairs. 

Shape: The shape of the rug comes into play with the footprint of your space as well as your ideal layout. Rectangular rugs are a popular choice, but blue 6x9 outdoor area rugs are also available as ovals or other shapes. Different shapes work well in unique layouts, but as an added bonus, the shape of the rug itself can impact the tone. However, at the end of the day, you should choose the shape that fits your layout best, since it’s not the primary factor in determining a rug’s style. 

Pattern: The design/pattern of the rug is one of those key factors in determining the style and tone. Because blue is a popular color in a variety of interior design styles, you’ll find that there’s a wide array of patterns and designs available for blue 6x9 outdoor area rugs. In particular, you’ll find many designs that show off oceanic icons and classic beachy stripes, but others will highlight unique textures, geometric patterns, oriental medallions, and so on. Study your favorite style and look at your other decor for guidance in choosing a pattern that will work for you. 

Color: You may have narrowed your search to blue 6x9 outdoor rugs, but there’s still the matter of choosing what shade of blue you’re looking for and what other colors you want to include in the rug. Neutral colors like beige, grey, and ivory are common for those nautical outdoor rugs, but depending on the brightness of those colors, they may lean in another direction entirely. So when you’re looking at colors, focus on the vibrancy of those colors, what tone they strike, and how they fit with your style.

Shop for sizes similar to blue 6x9 outdoor / indoor area rugs such as 6x11, 6x8, 6x10, 7x9, and 7x8.
