How to Use and Save Money on Acrylic Area Rugs in your Home

Want the look of wool without the hefty price tag? Try acrylic area rugs. Acrylic rugs were created to closely resemble wool rugs but their man-made fibers cost less. The beauty of acrylic area rugs lies in the fact that they’re static and mildew resistant and hold up well against fading, stains and sun damage. While these rugs are generally used in bathrooms because of their moisture-resistant nature, acrylic area rugs can be used virtually anywhere else in the home. Your acrylic area rugs have the same luxurious look and feel of the very best designer wool rugs but at a fraction of the price. White rugs, black and white, pink rugs, and green rugs are all available in acrylic. So if you’re looking for wool area rugs discount, don’t shop for wool at all. Shop for acrylic area rugs and you don’t be disappointed. You’ve probably heard the term acrylic before, especially if you’ve shopped for paint, plastics, or even fingernail polish. But did you know that acrylic can also be used to make area rugs? Acrylic area rugs are a great low-cost solution that can help anyone on just about any budget find the perfect rug for any style preferences. These fibers are durable and won’t rip, tear, or stain even with extended use. Best of all, since they aren’t delicate and all-natural like wool or bamboo rugs, these rugs can hold up to a lot of cleaning and stay looking beautiful for a long while.

What are Acrylic Area Rugs?

Acrylic rug fibers and other types of acrylic, like paint, aren’t the same thing, but they are very similar. Acrylic fibers are made from polymers, and the term “acrylic” actually includes a lot of different synthetic materials such as nitrile fibers and vinyl. The process by which acrylic material is made is a little bit complicated, but the end result is a beautiful, cost-efficient product that doesn’t lose much in terms of the quality you might have come to expect from all natural products. In its usual form, acrylic fiber most resembles wool fiber in terms of look and feeling, but it can also be designed to mimic cotton and even cashmere, especially in clothing.

Acrylic is a very popular choice for area rugs mostly due to its lower cost. However, there are a few other reasons that make it popular, such as its ability to be cleaned over and over again without causing problems—and even to be machined washed, if you have a rug small enough to go in the washing machine. While some people continue to swear by eco friendly fibers and hand made rugs, there are a lot of home decorators around the world who are happy to use machine made acrylics in their interior designs.

Best Sizes of Acrylic Area Rugs

Acrylic rugs can be purchased in all sorts of sizes. Find them in anything you need, from small to large to extra large. Since acrylic rugs are so much more affordable than many other materials—like wool and chenille, for example—you can afford to go a little bigger with your area rug than you ordinarily would. Pick something over 10’ wide for the perfect living room or dining room addition, or stick to rugs at least 6’ wide for everything else. Even if you have a smaller living room, be sure to pick an acrylic rug that’s large enough to decorate the majority of your sitting space, especially if you want to work with a traditional or transitional design.

On the other hand, since acrylic is so easy to work with, you should be able to find these rugs in unique smaller sizes fairly easily as well. Purchase an acrylic rug under 4’ in width to use as a throw rug in any room of your home. They make great entryway rugs, perfect sink and stove or hearth rugs, and even excellent accent pieces for your dining room or bedroom. If you want a small rug to place at the feet of your favorite rocking chair, you can find an acrylic shag rug in purple, white, blue, green, or any other solid color for a comfortable, fun style you’re sure to love.

What Shapes of Acrylic Rugs are Available?

Pick up an acrylic area rug in a traditional shape to help you bridge the gap between traditional styles and modern, contemporary colors and patterns. These rugs are largely available in rectangle and round shapes, and you can easily find plenty of runner rug options to suit your needs as well. Choose bold, vivid colors in these traditional shapes to help you work with a more modern flair. You might also want to go for thick, bright stripes if you’re trying to put together a room that tends toward the more contemporary in terms of style.

On the other hand, you can utilize a round acrylic rug with a very old-fashioned and traditional floral or geometric pattern to make a beautiful transitional space you and your whole family are sure to love. Choose a round acrylic rug in brown, gold, or jewel tones like dark green or navy blue to begin with, and pick one that has a simple pattern in neutral colors like gray, white, black, or even soft pink or blue to help balance it out. This can be the perfect start to help you create a beautiful space you’ll want to use for entertaining again and again.

What is the Best Room for Using Acrylic Rugs?

Synthetic blend rugs such as those made from acrylic can look amazing in any room of your home, but they have their strengths and weaknesses like any type of rug. Acrylic rugs look best in the bedroom simply because they’re available in so many different piles and textures to help you find the one that works best for you. Choose a high-pile acrylic shag rug for your bedroom and enjoy stepping onto a soft, comfortable, very plush surface every morning. Use acrylic with a shorter pile in the living room, dining room, or kitchen if you’re looking for something easy to keep clean and even easier to decorate with. These also make great rugs for kids’ rooms and playrooms since they’re so resistant to staining and can be cleaned with just about any type of rug cleaning products. Choose acrylic rugs in bold solid colors for kids, or pick one in an animal print for a fun playroom option.

If you love the look of eco friendly and natural fiber rugs like cotton or chenille but you don’t have the budget to spend on these rugs—or you don’t want to worry about the cleaning concerns that go along with them—synthetic rugs can help you have the best of both worlds. Acrylic rugs are especially easy to keep clean, and even if you have a busy household, you won’t have to worry about your rug taking too much damage no matter where you use it. These rugs come in plenty of sizes, shapes, colors, and patterns, and you’re really on limited by your own ideas when you’re looking for the perfect acrylic rug for your space.
