Nursery Rug Ideas

Designing the perfect nursery is one of the best ways to get ready for baby! You and your little one will be spending a lot of time in the nursery, so you'll want to make sure it's a space where you’ll both feel relaxed and comfortable. These nursery area rug ideas are sure to inspire your nursery design.

Comfort All Around

If you're fortunate enough to have a large nursery with room for story time and playtime, we recommend having a large area rug fill out the room. Not only will that unify all the different areas of the room, but it will ensure that your growing child has a soft surface all over the floor as they learn to crawl, walk, and stumble through their safe haven.

Classic Prints

Oriental and Persian prints are considered to be timeless thanks to their history and transcendent styles. Whether you are creating a nursery that is boho, jungle, farmhouse, or completely contemporary, you'll find that Oriental and Persian rugs can complement the room's overarching style and elevate the tone of the entire room.

Round Braided Nursery Rug

Jungle Haven

Who knew a white shag rug could be so stunning?! With the help of the large greenery statement wall, the simple yet textural rug transforms this nursery into an inviting and lush jungle haven just begging to be enjoyed.

Braided Beauty

A round braided blue and green rug sets the tone for this toddler nursery. The round rug centered in the middle of the room creates a dedicated play area while the mostly cotton construction provides extra softness and durability. Complete with a chalk wall for impromptu art sessions, this nursery is a child's dream.

Simply Vibrant

Tired of all the muted, neutral nursery color palettes? Know that you can go bold with color and still get stunning results! Whether you are choosing a boy's nursery rug or a girl's, you can play with colors like blue, pink, red, yellow, and green to create a room fitting for any gender.

Perfect Placement

There are many different ways to place area rugs in your nursery. Since the crib is often a focal point of the room, it's natural to have the rug near the crib or laying partway beneath it. Ultimately, it's best to consider your specific room's layout and size when choosing where to place your rug and what size is appropriate. Don't be afraid to seek out inspiration photos of what others have done in similar spaces.

Thoughtful Details

While the nursery is a heavily functioning room in the home, that doesn't mean it has to skimp on style. Don't be afraid to create a space that is just as much for you as it is for your little one. Add small, thoughtful details to take the space to the next level.

Luxurious Durability

This old world-inspired rug is made with transitional and contemporary spaces in mind. The combination of viscose and chenille create an extra silky handfeel, luxurious sheen, and rich high-low texture. Designed to be kid and pet-friendly, this elegant looking rug is perfect for even the busiest of households.

Go Green

No color is more rejuvenating than the color green, so what better color palette to use for a nursery? Go all in with a bold statement wall, green vintage-inspired rug and light wood accents like shown in the nursery here. The dark emerald tones may not be your standard nursery color, but the dark tones create a relaxing and nurturing ambiance for baby to sleep

Supreme Coziness

Even if your nursery has carpet, you can still add a rug to the room! Like this nursery, you may choose a rug that is the same color as the floor but put an emphasis on a new, cozy material. Alternatively, you can choose a rug that complements an accent color elsewhere in the room, such as a pink girls nursery rug or something similar.

Whimsical Nursery Rug Ideas

Whimsical + Cozy

A whimsical, multi-colored rug takes center stage in the corner of this artistic nursery. A statement rug like this is perfect for adding color and style to an otherwise neutral room while providing a soft place for little hands and feet. The wool construction is an added bonus by being durable and resistant to moisture.

Classic Glam

This neutral nursery is anything but boring! A large traditional medallion rug with hints of grey and white add beautiful texture to the space with its high-low design and subtle shimmer of viscose without being overwhelming. Add comfy and warm accessories to give the nursery an even more welcoming feeling.

Other Considerations

When you're choosing a rug for your nursery, it is important to consider the room as a whole. If you have a large mural or focal wall like this adorable nursery, then you may want to use a simple neutral rug. Or, if you want to lean into the adventurous wilderness theme, you could choose a rug that very specifically fits that theme.

Growing Up

The rug that you place in your nursery doesn't have to just fit a limited stage of life or gender. In this room, a large neutral area rug fills the room. Not only is the design simple, but the color, texture, and material all lend themselves to growing up with your child. You can decide how long you want a rug in the room
