Kitchen Rugs




Kitchen rugs are a handy way to change the appearance of a room, whether you are hiding a wear spot, or providing comfort for tired feet. Kitchen rugs are often used to finish a decor style and add decoration to the room.

The kitchen is one room in the house that often has a decor style, e.g. Country, Contemporary, Modernistic, etc. and for every style there is a kitchen rug that will complete your look and style and fit right in.

Around the Sink Area
Kitchen rugs around the sink area is a popular trend. It adds comfort to ones feet while doing tasks at the sink and the sink area is usually visible so it also adds to the kitchen decor. You can choose between oval or rectangular rugs depending on the available space.

Around the Table Area
Placing a large kitchen rug underneath your table will make your eating area a focal point (while keeping your feet warm in the winter). The type of table you have and the decor in your kitchen will play a large role in deciding what type of kitchen rug would look best.

A Swedish style or Ikea style kitchen would look fabulous with a black and white, or black or white kitchen rug. Country kitchens are always fun and lively so you could choose a kitchen rug that has a solid colour in the centre and an outer band that carries your kitchen theme. Of course the centre colour is supposed to accentuate your kitchen colours.

In the Entrance
Most kitchens have a door from the outside that enters into the kitchen and this is a perfect place for a kitchen rug. It will get noticed when you enter into the house and it can easily be tied to your kitchen colours or theme. This rug does not have to be overly large but it should cover enough area so that guests step onto the mat when entering your home. Putting a rug here will save on tracking dirt and mud through the house, and it will keep dirt trapped at the door.

Kitchen rugs are available in a variety of sizes and colours so you shouldn't have any trouble finding the right size or colour for your entrance. If you have a large entrance you might consider an oval rug. For smaller areas the rectangular shape works great.

Nooks
Many kitchens have a breakfast nook or something similar with high bar stool style,  chairs and a long counter area for those quick meals when you are on the move. Runners make a great accent around a nook. You can place a runner on one side or even on both sides. The runners will also catch food spills and crumbs, so make sure the runner you choose is easy to vacuum and wash or at least stain resistant.
