Let's Talk Rugs

Hardwood floors have a rustic elegance that you cannot find with any other flooring type, okay maybe we are a little biased. Adding a beautiful collection of rugs to your hardwood floors increases the beauty and warmth in your home.

Let’s dive into some of our favorite places to put your rugs throughout your home for added beauty and to protect your floors.

Entry Way

Entry ways are the perfect place to put a rug on your hardwood floors. These are high-traffic areas that see a lot of dirt and other debris from shoes or animal paws.

Pro TIp: Do not put rugs with rubber bottoms on your hardwood floors. This does not allow your floor to breathe if water gets under them and can cause water damage to your hardwood investment.

Living Rooms

Living rooms are another high-traffic area but they are also a room in the home where you want to feel completely comfortable. Adding a rug will increase warmth and make your guests feel right at home!

Bedrooms

Bedrooms are another perfect place for a comfortable rug. Add depth to your room and avoid the shock of cold floors in the morning with an oversized rug under your bed!

Just a reminder: The National Wood Flooring Association recommends waiting six weeks to lay rugs down on a newly finished hardwood floor. It is also good practice to check and clean under rugs twice monthly.
