What Is The Point Of A Rug? 10 Reasons Why Your Home Needs A Rug!

Does my room need a rug? Is it necessary to have an area rug? Let us share our top 10 reasons why you need a rug in your life.

1. BRIGHTEN A ROOM WITH A RUG

Very often dark floors can take a lot of light away from spaces, particularly in hallways and areas with no windows. The simple addition of a rug can instantly lift a room. You can play it safe with a semi plain rug or embrace a bolder patterned rug as a statement piece. Not only will your room look much brighter but a rug can add character to your space.

2. RUGS INSTANTLY WARM YOUR HOME 

A rug can easily warm a cold room while adding a decorative touch. A bedroom rug can heat a bedroom for a warmer wake up call or a living room rug can help create a cosy area to relax in. The good thing is, rugs aren’t permanent. You can rely on rugs for extra heat in the winter and change them up in the summer months.

 3. COVER IMPERFECTIONS & PROTECT YOUR FLOORS

Accidents happen such as spillages or dropping things on floors which can cause tiles to crack. Rugs are the perfect quick fix to covering imperfections on floors. Adding a rug to a floor can be much easier and cheaper than getting the floor fixed.

Wooden floors in high traffic areas can be exposed to wear and tear every day and will eventually start to look worn in areas. A rug can help avoid this. For example, a runner rug in a hallway can protect the floor from scuffs and marks. An inexpensive solution to protecting your floors.

4. CHOOSE A WASHABLE RUG FOR AN EASY CLEAN 

Forget having to scrub any stains or spillages on your rug. Instead, choose a washable rug. When shopping for kids rugs, pets rugs and bathroom rugs, at Kukoon Rugs you can shop the best washable rugs. This means any accidents or general wear and tear are no longer a big issue and your rug can easily be popped in the washing machine for a fresh feel. See our guide to machine washable rugs here. 

5. ARTWORK… FOR YOUR FLOORS!

Forget artwork for your walls, we’re talking artwork for your floors. Also known as rugs! Bring in colour and patterns to a plain room to make a statement and give your room the real WOW factor. 

6. RUGS ARE COSY & COMFY

Does a rug help keep a room warm? Absolutely. Keeping your toes warm and snuggling up for a cosy night in is made much better with the addition of a shaggy rug. Look for a deep, soft pile shaggy rug for extra warmth. 

7. FRESHEN YOUR DECOR

Tiring of your decor but can’t afford to fully redecorate? Rugs are a great way to change up a room on a budget. You can choose a different colour or style of rug which can transform a room instantly. Unlike fully redecorating, if you want to mix it up more often you absolutely can!

8. GIVE A WARM WELCOME 

Your doorway, foyer, porch, hallway or whatever you refer to it as can be made even more welcoming with a doormat or entrance mat. Entryway rugs can give all your guests a warm welcome while keeping the outdoors outside. Keep your indoors squeaky clean with the addition of a coir doormat. You won’t regret it!

9. YOUR GARDEN LOVES RUGS

Adding an outdoor rug to your garden can warm an area, soften your patio space and really enhance your outside space. Available in large rug sizes and in different styles, your garden needs an outdoor flatweave rug.
