  • Using More Than One Area Rug

    With people getting more interested in affordable and easy to maintain home decorating ideas, wall-to-wall carpeting is taking a back step and giving way to area rugs. Most of us think that there should only be one area rug in a room and that area rugs used at the same time should all be similar or at least have the same color. This cannot be farther from the truth. In fact, area rugs of different designs, shapes or colors will give your home a more unique quality because the rooms are distinct and thus, show their own personalities. Even using more than one rug in a room is fast becoming a trend in many homes. Of course, it's sensible to say that when you use quite a number of area rugs, you just don't throw one after the other like a rave party. Look at the colors, styles, sizes and the function of the rugs before deciding which rugs go with the others.
