The Hottest Rug Trends to Watch Out for this Year

With 11 months left in 2016, how will you bring about the change you pledged to create this year? One place to start is in your home. Get inspired with these 5 rug trends to watch out for this year.

1. Soft Textures

The softer the rug, the better. Bring a whole new level of comfort into your home by laying a cozy rug onto your old carpets, hardwood, or tile.

2. Wall Art

Rugs aren’t just for floors anymore. Hang rugs on walls for a textural art piece that will leave your guests inspired -- and a little jealous.

3. Floral Figures

Florals for spring are definitely not groundbreaking. But florals all year round? Now that’s innovation. Florals patterns in subtle colors such as calm blues, ivory, and beige can create a fresh and welcoming atmosphere throughout the cold winter months.

4. Hallway Runners

Utilize your hallway space by adding a runner. Whether it’s in the entrance to your home or in a bedroom hallway, these runners can add style and flair to parts of the house that most leave undecorated. Plus, reduce noise in your hallways by muffling noisy footsteps.

5. Statement Rugs

Be prepared to see breathtaking rugs that bring rooms to life this year. Gone are the days in which rugs sat in one color, blending in with the carpet. 2015 brought us some bold patterns and rug ideas, and this year will be even more inventive than the last.

Rugs play a key role in establishing the atmosphere of a room. Shake up your new year with a rug that stimulates your creativity and originality. Happy rug hunting!
