Sisal 9x12 Area Rugs

Why A 9x12 Sisal Rug?

There’s something special about a 9x12 sisal rug. These babies are as beautiful as they are durable, and they go with any style you could imagine.

You’ve probably seen sisal rugs in hotel lobbies and other commercial spaces that experience heavy foot traffic. Sisal is a strong, versatile natural fiber that can withstand dirt, cleaning, moisture, and stains. These rugs come in a neutral golden color that can work in just about any space, adding an earthy and natural feel to the décor.

Below, we’ve included a few ideas based on how a professional might use a 9x12 sisal rug in a home. One of these might inspire your next design project:

• You can place a 9x12 sisal area rug in a living room, protecting one of the busiest rooms in your home from soil and stains. A rug of this size would likely be large enough to accommodate the space’s furniture, creating a cohesive design with natural appeal. If you have an extra large space, opt for a 10x12 sisal rug.
• You could use a 9x12 wool sisal rug for a softer take on this durable natural-fiber rug. The addition of wool also brings the opportunity for more diverse colors and designs, and it gives it an interesting texture.
• You might layer an 8x12 sisal rug under a smaller rug in a sitting area, creating depth to the area's décor. Layered rugs can make a space feel warmer and more inviting, particularly if you use complementing colors.

A Closer Look At Sisal Rugs 9x12

Interior decorators will use sisal rugs 9x12 in almost any room in the house. Because sisal is made from natural plant fibers, it's a renewable source and is better for the environment. Plus, sisal is strong enough to make rope and twine from, which means it can stand up to any traffic in your home.

Sisal is particularly useful for adding a nautical touch, thanks to its sandy color. Because the natural fiber can be a little rougher, some people prefer sisal rugs for their living rooms or bedrooms to be blended with softer materials like wool.

Is A 9x12 Sisal Rug Right For Me?

If you love the idea of a natural, durable rug that can stand up to anything, a sisal rug is perfect for your home. Especially since the tan color can work well with almost any décor scheme. Before you buy a 9x12 sisal rug, though, measure your space to ensure it'll be a good fit. You'll want at least a 11X14 area for this size of rug, and larger if you would like more than 12" between the edges of the rug and the walls.

Below are questions that’ll help you pick the perfect rug for your home:

• Is tan a good fit for my décor? Or would I prefer a dyed sisal rug?
• Is rectangular the shape I want? Or would I prefer a round sisal rug?
• Is 9x12 the right size? Or would something larger be a better fit?
