Rugs

     Rugs. You've probably heard about these dandy little guys. People say rugs ground décor. Some people might even recommend certain sizes, furniture placement, and perfect angles for them.

     It may seem terribly overwhelming, so just scratch all of the things you've heard, brave up, and get a fun rug. Don't you dare let decorators scare you out of purchasing a rug!

     Rugs add a warmth and layer to any room, be it a bedroom, dining room, or living room.

     They come in all colors, patterns, sizes, shapes, etc. Rugs are especially important for cozying up those rooms with tiled or wooden floors. Who doesn't love sinking their feet into a shaggy or braided rug instead of cold tile?

     Note also in the picture above: Books and wood, as well as low seating and plants (soon to come!)

     If you're brave, you could even try layering rugs for a bohemian look. The result is super cozy!

     Action point: Get a rug if you haven't already. It doesn't have to be expensive! Try second-hand stores, Craigslist, or Target. :)

     How do you feel about rugs? Do they seem daunting or friendly? Expensive or cheap? Easy or only for pros?
