4 Placement Tips for Using Handmade Carpets in Home Décor



 Are you looking for a place to put your new handmade rug or carpet? Maybe you want a soft base for your floor, a décor piece to match your room setting, or a piece of artwork that brings color to your home?

Whatever your reason for choosing a handmade rug or carpet, you'll be amazed at how much you can do with a good rug. Handmade carpets are well designed, durable, have the finest stitches, and can be placed in every room of the house.

However, they’ll look much better when placed in the right location. So, where should you place your rug or carpet for the best effect?

Here are 4 places where handmade carpets look best at home:

1.   The Living Room

Of course, the living room will be the first place you’ll think of placing a carpet. Whether it’s a full-sized carpet or a smaller rug, the living room is the ideal location. Handmade rugs have great designs that can add color to any living room.

A full-sized carpet can be placed on the floor area of the living room to provide a soft and comfortable base. They also look more “homely” and can give your living room a warm feeling.

If you have a smaller rug, then it’s best to place it in the center of the living room. You can even place it under a coffee table or partially under the furniture.

2.   The Bedroom

Some carpets may have the same effect in the living room but will stand out perfectly in the bedroom. For example, unicolor rugs and carpets look perfect when placed in the bedroom. Just make sure the carpet's color matches that of the bedroom décor.

A professional décor tip would be to go one step further and match the carpet color with the color of your bedroom walls, bedsheet covers, and even decoration pieces!

Gabbeh Rugs, Oushak Rugs, and other high pile rugs are more suited to the bedroom as they are softer and more comfortable.


3.   The Hallway

Placing a rug in your home’s hallways is a great way to create an “elegant” look. You may have noticed that many luxury hotels and older homes use the same method. While a handmade rug in your home’s hallways won’t turn it into a 5-star hotel, it does have a royal effect.

Kilim Rugs, Runner Rugs, and other longer handmade rugs fit perfectly in the hallways as they are non-slip and can handle high foot traffic.

4.   The Barambah or Balcony

Lastly, you can always place a carpet or rug in the Barambah or balcony. Outdoor rugs are specially designed for this setting and look great in the sunlight. They are also designed with UV-resistant dyes, making them ideal for placing outdoors.

However, make sure you don’t use regular handmade rugs outdoors as sun exposure will cause the rug to face.

So, next time you are looking for the best handmade carpets for sale, make sure you choose from a reliable rug store. Getting handmade rugs online is easier than ever nowadays, especially if you have a rug supplier that provides you with 100% original rugs!
