3 Types of Rugs for Your Home


If you have hardwood flooring anywhere in your home, you can leave it bare as is or you can lay a rug on top. While a hardwood floor is beautiful on its own, it can get too cold or too hot depending on the weather. A nice rug gives you a place to step on when you are barefoot, and it helps keep the floor less dusty. Handmade Persian rugs, for example, are available in a variety of sizes, styles and color schemes. They are a wonderful addition to your home and a stylish accent.

Here are three more types of rugs for your home to consider.

Wool Rugs

Wool rugs are popular due to the softness of their material. Most are handwoven or hand-tufted. They tend to be bright in color with minimal upkeep required. Wool is great for homes that house children, pets and those who tend to be clumsy because wool is stain-resistant. The wool's yarn does not absorb oil and dirt very well so it stays cleaner, longer. Wool rugs are also durable because their fibers bounce back to shape very well.

To keep it clean, you are advised to vacuum on a regular basis. If liquids are spilled on the rug, blot the area instead of rubbing.

Natural Fiber Rugs

Natural fiber rugs tend to have a flat and woven look. Their structure adds a calming element to any room, especially if you opt for a neutral color. Some natural fiber rugs are made from natural plants and grasses. To give them stability, and so their life can be extended, some manufacturers add a latex backing.

To keep it clean, blot spills immediately with an absorbent cloth. If stains are difficult to remove, you might consider using a professional cleaning service. 

Cotton Rugs

Cotton rugs are known to be affordable. They are also available in a variety of styles, colors and patterns every season. These rugs can be cleaned in your washing machine.

Handmade Persian rugs, among other types of rugs, are a great addition to your home.
