Natural Fiber Outdoor Rugs

Why A Natural Outdoor Rug?

These lovely natural fiber outdoor rugs are perfect for any patio or exterior space you're decorating. And you can use them indoors, too!

For the eco-conscious, a natural outdoor rug is an effortless way to make your decor friendlier to the planet without sacrificing taste. Sisal and jute are popular natural fiber options for exterior spaces, and they both offer a rugged, earthy texture to enhance your decor. Interior decorators love using natural fibers in their designs, and it's never too late to join the party.

If you're not sure what type of natural outdoor rug you're looking for, check out our professional ideas below for some inspiration:

• An outdoor sisal rug can create an inviting and beautiful space when placed under a patio table or even in a smaller size at the front door. Sisal is a natural plant fiber that is popular even in commercial establishments for its durability and elegance.
• Many decorators use natural fiber indoor outdoor rugs as a seasonal patio or deck surface, bringing them in during cold or wet months to extend their life. Indoor/outdoor options are often favored for their softer surfaces and intricate designs.
• You can also place an indoor outdoor rug natural fiber option in your kitchen, living room, entryway, or anywhere else in the home that faces high exposure. These options are more durable and easier to clean than most indoor-only options.

A Closer Look At Natural Fiber Outdoor Rugs

Natural fiber outdoor rugs are rarer than you might expect. This is because many natural fibers like silk and wool have strict indoor-only requirements, lest they get ruined by water. Even jute holds up better when it isn't saturated with water or soil from outdoor use. But biodegradability is only more reason to buy one!

If eco-friendliness is what you're looking for, you'll find biodegradable sisal and jute options that will serve your exterior space well. Sisal will provide a longer life while jute is softer, but requires more care.

Is A Natural Outdoor Rug Right For Me?

There's no reason not to treat yourself to a natural fiber rug when sisal is an option for your material. This beautiful textile is durable, fashionable, and readily available. And if you don't mind a bit of extra care, jute is terrific too!

Before you buy, make sure you have a list of what specifications you're looking for. Check out the questions below if you'd like help starting your list:

• What size of rug do I need for this area? Measure carefully and test your rug dimensions with a masking tape outline. 6x9, 8x10 and 9x12 are some of the most popular natural fiber rug sizes.
• What color or colors am I looking for? Pick ones that go well with your existing decor.
• How thick of a rug do I want? Select a thickness that will work well for your intended use. If you're using your rug next to a doorway, take the door height into consideration.
