Rugs are so easy to incorporate into a home, but what about in a carpeted space? Weโve created the perfect guide to adding a rug in any room, even one with carpet
We love rugs. What can we say? They bring beautiful texture, gorgeous color, and a comfortable touch to absolutely any room, including those with carpet! While itโs easy to add a rug to hardwood or tile, carpet is a different story. To transform your space in a snap, weโve created a guide to help you incorporate a rug into your carpeted room.

High Pile, High Style
If youโre carpet has a low pile (meaning the looped fibers are short and the carpeting isnโt very plush) go for a rug that has a contrasting high pile. Shag rugs are the perfect addition to a low pile carpet because they add comfort and texture. The Hygge Collection has awesome contrasting pile height and is available in a handful of colors.

Play With Texture

If you love texture like we do, youโll love adding a natural fiber rug to your carpeted space. The beautiful tones of natural fiber rugs help to warm up your room. This can be a game-changer when you have a cooler toned carpet that just isnโt cutting it. Want to know more about why we love natural fiber rugs? We have a whole blog about it! Check it out here!
Make a Statement with Vintage Inspiration
Design by Crazy Wonderful
We love a vintage-inspired moment and we wonโt let carpeting stop us. When it comes to adding a vintage-inspired rug to a carpeted space, color matching is key. Choosing a rug that features a color that is similar to the carpet will help tie the two together. This is especially important when the pile height of the rug and carpet are similar. Your vintage-inspired rug should be a focal point of the room, tying things together and making your space cohesive.
The Layla Collection is perfect for low pile carpets. This gorgeous collection of vintage-inspired beauties features neutral and vibrant tones that will wow!
