Kitchen Runner Rugs

Kitchen runner rugs make that first sip of coffee in the morning that much cozier.

Since kitchens usually have limited wall space, they take a little more creativity when it comes to adding color and texture. A kitchen runner rug is an easy, effective way to visually warm up the heart of your home.

The Skinny On Kitchen Runner Rugs

Runner rugs are traditionally 2x8 or 2x12 feet, but you can find tons of size variations depending on your exact needs. They're typically rectangular, but you may also find them in oval shapes. Their long, narrow dimensions make them a great fit for kitchens, where they help protect your high-traffic floors and may even add a little extra traction for safety.

Running Through History

Runner rugs have existed for about as long as humans have been weaving rugs"?which is to say, centuries. It's believed that runner rugs were first created by nomadic groups in the Middle East, who relied on small, portable looms that limited the width of their weaving.

Since runner rugs may have originated in what is now Persia and Turkey, they're often seen in oriental styles. But with their spread in popularity has come vast stylistic and manufacturing diversification, and they can be found in virtually any style and material today.

Modern manufacturing methods have been especially good for kitchen rug runners, as more durable and better traction materials have been developed.

What To Look For In A Kitchen Runner Rug

Kitchen rugs come in all sorts of materials, textures, and styles"?so many, in fact, you may be overwhelmed! Here are a few things to look for when searching for the kitchen runner of your dreams:

  • A kitchen rug runner should have non-slip rubber backing for safety.
  • Since your kitchen probably gets plenty of wear and tear, make sure you're mindful of the construction and material to make sure it's a good fit for your lifestyle.
  • Most indoor/outdoor kitchen runner rugs can be wiped down with a wet cloth or even hosed down, for easy spill clean-up. Some are even machine washable!
  • Natural fiber kitchen rug runners have an appealing look and texture, especially for rustic and hygge styles. But, they may not last as long as synthetic materials, which are typically easier to clean.

Finding The Best Kitchen Runner Rugs For Your Style

Once you decide on what material or construction will be the best fit for your runner, next you can decide on the perfect style.

  • If you love the modern look, a black and white runner will add a beautiful, sophisticated edge to your kitchen.
  • A green or blue kitchen runner will add a fun pop of color that will look stylish year-round.
  • Striped kitchen runners are a great way to visually expand the space, and add some playfulness!
  • For a homey, vintage vibe, check out farmhouse style and braided rugs.
  • Use your curtains and hand towels as color inspiration, and try a complementary color. For example, if your kitchen curtains are yellow, try a burgundy runner rug.
  • Contrast is a good move"?a rich-colored rug, like navy or crimson, will transform a white kitchen. A bright color, like white or beige, will look chic against a dark floor.
