How to Choose a Rug for a Bedroom
A bedroom rug can add softness, warmth and visual balance around the bed. Start with the bed size, room dimensions and how much rug you want visible at the sides and foot.
Choose coverage around the bed
Larger rugs can extend beyond both sides and the foot of the bed, while smaller rugs can sit beneath the lower portion of the bed or beside it.
Consider feel and maintenance
Bedrooms often suit softer textures because foot traffic is usually lower than in living rooms and hallways. Always check the individual rug's care instructions.
Choose colour and style
Neutral beige, cream and grey rugs can create a calm bedroom palette, while patterned rugs can add a stronger focal point.
