When most people think of floor coverings, they think of very large rugs that cover a great deal of flooring – and they almost always think of oval shaped ones as well.
Today, there are an incredible number of different styles, shapes, and sizes that can be used for quick fixes in decorating dilemmas.
For example, if you want to purchase new furniture, but the furniture doesn’t match the paint or paper on the wall, or it doesn’t match the flooring in the room, larger floor coverings can actually be used to tie all of the different colors together in the room, taking away the problem of ‘not matching.’ It’s just a question of finding the right one to make that happen – and they do indeed exist.
They can also be used to tie different areas of a room together. For example, in many rooms, the furnishings or decorative pieces that are used in the room appear ‘scattered,’ without any rhyme or reason, and without any visible path for moving through the room.
Huge rugs can change all of that, pulling the pieces together so that they do not have that scattered appearance, and clearly marking foot paths through the room.
When they are on the floor they even have a dramatic effect on the ceiling of a room. They can be used to make the ceiling appear to be higher or lower. This is done by electing some that have the right mix of colors, and the right pattern – as well as the right shape to give the illusion that you desire for your room. As you can see, they really can offer you quick fixes to decorating dilemmas, saving you both time and money in the long run. It’s just a matter of visualizing what you need, and then selecting ones to make it happen.
