Treat Your Feet to Shag Rugs

Indulge in the textile experience of running your feet over one of the shag rugs from Pottery Barn. This fresh take on a retro design is sure to become a favorite part of your room decor. The key to making any room look professionally designed is to add layers of visual appeal with a color scheme and a variation of rich textures. Shag rugs give you the opportunity to do both.

Choosing the Ideal Shag Rugs For Your Home

Make any room a more inviting and cozy experience by topping your hard floors with shag rugs. Not only will these rugs protect the floors in your high-traffic areas, but they'll also encourage you to kick off your shoes and enjoy the soft texture. As you start to browse all the contemporary style options, consider the following:

Choose Between a Solid or Pattern: An area rug is a large textile in any room. Keep it simple and classic by selecting a solid color or make it a fashionable statement by opting for a design with a visual pattern.

Consider Color & Scheme: Every room should have a clear color scheme and overall design theme. Consider the look you're trying to achieve and select shag rugs designed to reinforce your personal design style.

Look at Fine Design Details: Little things can make a big difference when it comes to the design of an area rug. A fringe border, raised pattern and material content can all play a role in helping to make that final selection between your favorite designs.

Select a Size: Take a few moments to measure out the space available, making sure to accommodate for the furniture that will be in place. The front legs of a conversation set should be anchored on the area rug. Use the measurements from your room to determine which of the many size options makes the best choice.

Once you experience the plush comfort of these shag rugs for yourself, you'll want to feature them in every room of your home. Use an area rug in a child's bedroom to provide them with a comfortable place to play. Choose a round rug in a small conversation area or opt for a rectangular rug under the desk in your home office. Once you make your final selection, consider pairing the design with a rug pad. Not only will it provide a little extra padding beneath the rug, but it will also protect your hard floors while keeping the rug you've selected securely in place.
