Top 5 Affordable Rugs For Each Room

Design Ideas, Interiors

I spend a lot of time sourcing rugs for clients, and well, for my own home. I can easily spend hours onsite and online rug shopping and this past few week was no different. I have two current clients that need rugs for outdoor spaces and for their interior living rooms, oh and entryway, oh and dining. With rug on the brain, I thought I put together my top affordable rugs for each room in the house. It is safe to say I have actually seen and / or used these rugs in my own home or in a clients space and no regrets.

Top 5 Affordable Rugs For Each Room

Each space in your home requires a different style rug, whether it be for heavy traffic, warmth, layers, style or want. So, I broke it down by style and / or space.

1. Sisal / Jute Rugs

So, these rugs are everywhere and people love them. I will admit, I have one in my entryway and living room, but, its simplicity does not fit with my home decor, so both rugs are layered with a more formal area rug on top of it. In winter I add a blue rug over the jute for my living room, but, in the summer months I replace it with a cowhide rug. Give the space a lighter more airy feel.

The above 50% jute 50% wool rug was actually by Nate Berkus for Target. I bought it over 4.5 years ago and it has held about like new. I love the mix of wool in the rug, because then, it is soft on your bare feet.

Other favorites are:

World Market has great deals on outdoor rugs / mats and I still love my porch rug from last summers.

Wayfairs Eldridge Outdoor Rug is best deal online! Stylish and affordable, and comfy under your feet.

3. Entryway Runners

For the Entryway, I am a firm believer in a dark patterned Persian rug, vintage preferably of course. Guest can come in from our harsh winters wearing boots and wipe their feet, you would never know. My own vintage Persian rug has seen some harsh winters and you can’t even tell. I got mine from my favorite Etsy Shop BEHomeCo awhile back.

Otherwise, you can find Persian rugs that are not vintage/handloomed on Overstock and still get the same great look.

4. Bedroom Rugs

I believe these rugs need to be comfy under your feet, and if you possible, 100% wool. You spend many hours sleeping in this space, nothing wrong with being surrounded by natural fibers.

One of my top fave 100% wool rugs for a bedroom or great room is Potterybarn’s Bosworth. I love the feel, look and style. You can’t go wrong.

Another fave and current clients of mine have purchased this for their great room, and love it, as do I, is West Elm’s Blue Lagoon Rug

{Shop it Here}

Now, for a neutral comfy rug, Crate and Barrel’s Parker Wool Shag Rug is perfection.

5. Best Rug to Layer Over A Jute Rug

My number one pick is a good cowhide rug or a distressed vintage inspired rug like these.

Hope this gives you all a little shopping relief.

    Area rugs can add SO much to a space! I love that they can bring in all sorts of colors and just completely change the look of a room.

  3. Angela Tolsma says

    I had no idea that home depot had rugs. I love a good rug, though I love hardwood more!! I so wish my apartment had hardwood so I could invest in a good rug!

  4. Aish Das-Padihari says

    I’m crazy about jute and anything that’s natural plus has a natural look to it. Though jute rugs are not very easy to clean.

    • Cecilia Cannon says

      Certain jute rugs are horrible to clean! But, if you really get a good chunky one, you can cut out some strays that are stained. The tighter the jute rug the harder to clean

  5. Andrea says

    WOW this are all great rugs. I am currently living in a carpeted apartment and so miss my wooden floors when I lived in Boston. A couple of these would look amazing in my old apt.

  6. Danielle says

    I am in dire need of a new living room rug. I kind of like the designs of the indoor/outdoor rugs, but with a bedroom rug texture.

    • Cecilia Cannon says

      Yes, totally, those rugs are good indoors too, I like to add a good cushioned rug pad (like the ones from rugpadusa) to give those outdoor rugs a more indoor comfort.

  9. Lily says

    OMG We have a couple Jute Rugs as well in our living room, I love it but our dog went pee on one of them so it has a nice stain on it. Still trying to figure out how to get it out haha. But after reading this, I just may trying the layering over the jute rug 🙂
    Thanks!!
