Indoor Outdoor Rugs: Beautiful and Practical Accessories


If you are blessed with living in a pleasant climate, a lot of your time will likely be spent outdoors. This means that your outdoor living area will matter as much to you as the inside of your house.

You will most likely have given careful thought to the décor of your deck, patio and swimming pool area. A beautiful and inviting environment in which you will enjoy relaxing, working, playing, dining and entertaining guests will include attractive garden furniture such as lawn chairs, hammocks, garden swings, day beds, patio table and chairs, and summer seats. You may also have a chiminea, a barbeque pit, a water feature and ornaments. All this enhances the appeal and comfort of your outdoor living space.

Indoor outdoor rugs are an addition to your outdoor décor that you may not have or even have previously considered. These soft yet durable outdoor rugs bring style and design to your deck or patio with their vibrant colors and eye-catching patterns. There is a wide range of sizes, shapes, colours, styles and patterns so you are sure to find something that will complement your existing furniture and decoration.

Looking good

Using outdoor rugs can completely revamp the look of an outdoor area and give it definition. They add color to outdoor furniture that is typically of a more natural or muted tone. If you have solid colored furniture it is a good idea to enliven your outdoor living area with a brightly patterned rug. Bold designs also ensure that it becomes the center of attention. If you already have patterned cushions on your chairs and sofas then a plain or solid colored rug may be a better option. Therefore, it is important to consider the furniture you have outdoors so that the rug you choose will match and set off the outdoor style you have created.

So soft

Apart from using indoor outdoor rugs to enhance the look of your garden area, they also have many practical uses. People love them because they are so soft of your feet, enabling you to move from indoors to outdoors without having to put shoes on. This makes outdoors much more homey and really feel like an extension of the inside of your home. Of course, this makes your deck or patio much more safe and pleasant for children to play on and no doubt your pets will appreciate the added luxury too. Outdoor rugs also create a pleasant ambiance for guests and provide a nice soft carpet for them to move around you as you socialize together.

Protective

As well as adding comfort to otherwise hard surfaces, indoor outdoor rugs also protect surfaces, particularly wooden decking floors, from weather damage, scratches and food or drink stains.

Versatile

Indoor outdoor rugs are extremely versatile so you can place them wherever you want. Because they are durable, many people also use them indoors in areas that are used a lot as they will withstand much more abuse than indoor carpets. Therefore, they are a great solution for utility rooms, garages, children's bedrooms and games rooms.

Combining both aesthetic appeal and practical use, indoor outdoor rugs are a great accessory to your outdoor living area.
