Small Shag Rugs

Why A Small Shag Rug?

Is a small shag rug the cherry on top that your home needs? These beauties are versatile enough for any space, so you're sure to find what you're looking for.

Interior decorators love the small shag rug for its ability to add texture and personality to a room without becoming a dominant centerpiece. These little rugs come in all sizes and colors so that you can find one for your home regardless of your decor style.

A small shag area rug might sit to the side of your bed, in a little reading space, in the living room, or even in your bathroom.

The following decor ideas will help you imagine how a professional decorator might use a small shag area rug in a home:

• You will find small plush rugs of all colors in bathrooms around the world. The high pile feels luxurious and soft to curl your toes into after a shower, and it's the perfect texture to wake up to. You do need to be sure your rug dries completely after every shower, though.
• Small shaggy rugs work well when placed on either side of a bed. These rugs will insulate the floor, so you always have somewhere warm to put your feet in the mornings and nights. And they'll add gorgeous texture to the space.
• You might place a small round shag rug in a reading nook at the foot of a large comfortable chair. The rug might be purple, black, grey, or white, as long as it matches the surrounding decor and doesn't overpower the area.

A Closer Look At Small Shag Rugs

Using small shag or flokati rugs can still have a significant impact on your home's decor. Interior decorators use shag to add texture to a room that's otherwise minimalist or dull. Shag rugs today are nothing like the 70s eyesores that the name might make you think of-?they're soft, luxurious, and easier to maintain!

You can get shag rugs in an array of colors, designs, and styles, so there's something for every home. From blocky geometric prints to traditional floral designs, you'll find what your room needs.

Is A Small Shag Area Rug Right For Me?

Small shag rugs can fit in any home, but you'll want to pick where you put it carefully. These thick accents shouldn't go in high-traffic areas that receive a lot of soil, as they can become flattened and challenging to get clean. Make sure you put your small shag rug in a space with low to moderate foot traffic.

Once you pick the right spot in your home to place your small shag rug, you're ready to decide on:

• Size
• Shape
• Material
• Color
