			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Rugs play a very important role in our homes. They can decorate and enhance any room. If you will look to any interior design books or magazines, you will notice that 98% of the rooms being shown have rugs. It surely complements the furniture and other ornaments, pulling them together to create that perfect ambiance.</p>
<p>One of the easiest ways to redecorate your home without spending too much is through home rugs. In an instant, a perfectly chosen rug can turn a dull room into a lively one. Not that it beautifies an area, but it also serves as protection from cold tiles and concrete floors and it also prevents hardwood floors from unwanted scratches.</p>
<p>If you are planning to modify your houses with rugs, you should be aware that there are several factors that you need to consider. Of course, to create the perfect environment, these elements should go well together. And how do you that?</p>
<p>First, you need to consider the size that you need. As for this tip, you need to get your measuring tape and measure your room. The appropriate size for your area rug would be 24 inches shorter than the shortest wall of the room. What if the entire room is carpeted? No problem! It can still be placed over wall to wall carpeting.</p>
<p>Living Rooms. You need to consider your furniture layout. Do you have one or more conversation area? If you only have one, you may want to put one big rug to emphasize it, making it the center of attention. If you more than one, you may want to place rugs in these areas to group and define them. Another thing to keep in mind is that there should be 1 to 2 ft empty rug extending from the furniture.</p>
<p>For bedrooms, the main object of the room is the bed. You may want to put a rug underneath it to fully enhance this space. When placing the rug, one third of it should be under the bed. It should also extend to about 30 to 36 inches on its side.</p>
<p>To create a cozy dining area, you may put rugs wherein the table and the chairs could fit in perfectly. As a rule, your rug should be 40 to 48 inches bigger than the size of your dining table. It is important that when you place your rug, your chairs, even when pushed back will fit it.</p>
<p>The type of rug is also an important factor to consider. Rugs are actually made from different materials. There are natural materials such as wool, cotton and grass rugs which usually cost more. Synthetics, like nylon and polypropylene/olefin, on the other hand are a lot cheaper.</p>
<p>Lastly, let us go the fun and most exciting part; you need to choose the suitable color and patterns. Dark colored rugs tend to create an intimate space in the room while light colored rugs can expand the area. To hide falling hairs, pet hairs and dirt, you may opt to choose heavy patterned rugs to conceal them. You may choose Oriental rugs for traditional themed room, bold geometric patterns for a modern, sophisticated room and a braided area rug for a countryside themed room.</p>
<p>Adding rugs to your floor can greatly change your room in an instant. Combining your style and personal preferences, you can create that perfect ambiance for your home in a relatively easy and affordable way.</p>
