By Susan Foster


Most of the professional decorators love to select different rugs. It is because when it talks about the design, the items which are used on floors can deliver various packing textures, patterns, and colors into a one comfortable and a soft package. But with having no idea on selecting the perfect one, for sure, you will keep on thinking about what should be the proper fabric, type, size, and pattern.

The sizes of the rugs that are going to be placed in a nursery is highly dependent on what type is being preferred. A nursery rug is either large or small in size. Large sizes are suitable for those who want all the pieces of furniture to be anchored. While the small sizes are best for sitting independently off them. Hardwood type of floors are recommended to have the larger ones.

When choosing large sizes, see to it that you are overlapping the pieces of furniture, especially the crib, specifically the front legs, on carpet edges. You also need to make sure that all empty spaces in a room are filled in. Leave at least some few inches in between the pieces of furniture and rug edges.

If you prefer to have the smaller rugs, you can surely achieve a proper highlighting of specific areas and items such as the crib and the cozy reading corner. However, to have this would come with an important rule which is having small accent rugs which are big enough in order to set an entire accent pieces and the pieces collection. However, actual placements are dependent on the item.

Other people prefer to have a certain item which is focused, and probably, the most common item is the crib. So try to place the carpet at center of that crib. Make sure that you are also overlapping the front half of crib on the carpet. In setting off the other areas specifically, group the needed items directly unto the carpet.

Balancing the elements. Before purchasing a carpet, you need to consider some important things. Try to determine things which are missing on the design. Consider the necessary elements being used such as the colors and the patterns. Determine as well the various textures. And once you already have figured out what was lacking, filling in the gaps would be the next step.

If the selected choices are of large neutral palettes, try to have something with different colors. And when the choices have many solid colors, breaking them up with some bold patterns is recommended. When considering texture, try to focus on creating contrasts. If you are having a basic low pile type, choose the shaggy rug.

Selecting appropriate materials. Manufacturers are going to provide you with various options for the materials, but there maybe times when choosing for a choice is difficult. For this reason, you need to consider your priorities importantly. The material you will choose should be durable, washable synthetic, and strong.

You do not to worry on the toxic residues when you opt for the organic fibers such as cotton and sisal. Wool rugs are best suggestions as well.
