What’s your flooring like? Tile? Wood? Wall-to-wall carpeting? Engineered hardwood? Flooring is tricky.
Tom and I recently replaced a 25-year-old plush peach carpet with hardwood flooring. While we love the look of hardwood it does have a few disadvantages.
Wood is ideal in summer. But come winter, it’s cold to sit on and we were craving a cozy and comfy carpet.
Who wants to play board games on a bare hardwood floor? The kids were complaining and we were no less content. A change was needed.

Area rugs for every room in your dwelling
I was just reading how hardwood floors topped with area rugs is trending. The caveat? The price.
It’s way too expensive to purchase area rugs for every room of your home. Especially when some L-shaped designed rooms require two rugs.
Unless you purchase from Boutique Rugs with 60% off your purchase when you buy with my link. We all win big. You will not be disappointed at the value you get for your buck. And I can’t thank you enough for supporting my website.
After all, you want area rugs for your living room, dining room, kitchen, bedrooms and even a runner for your entryway. Especially in high traffic rooms. I love having an area rug to protect my hardwoods.
Moreover, you’ll be equally pleased when you see the product you get for the price. Tom and I went to the most “budget” area rug carpet store in Western New York and guess what?
The Boutique Rugs price was still better with the discount.
Not to mention better selection. I like a wide selection to choose from and bet you do too. No doubt, you want the rug to match the style of your home.
We’re talking 50K plus rugs to choose from online at Boutique Rugs in varying sizes as opposed to under 100 rugs at a local store. See the difference?

Wall-to-wall carpeting versus area rugs
How do you feel about wall-to-wall carpeting? Okay, how do you really feel? No judgment here! I get it!
Wall-to-wall carpeting is nice for the first few months until it get stained and is impossible to clean. With three young kids, two stinky dachshunds and a cat, life is messy. Bad things happen to good carpets.
So I favor hardwood flooring. Easy to clean. Yet it’s so cold here in Buffalo, NY! You might as well be sitting on ice.
Besides, you don’t get a great selection with wall-to-wall carpeting. The color and styles are very limiting.
Wall-to-wall carpeting is {insert big sigh here} dated and so circa 1980’s.
Choosing an area rug is a way to personalize a space making it uniquely yours. You’re building design into a space starting with the vibrant foundation going upwards.
Whether your style is farmhouse, bohemian, southwestern, coastal, traditional, vintage, contemporary, animal, geometric, spots, solids or stripes….I promise you will find a rug you LOVE from Boutique Rugs with an even better budget price.
Size is vital with area rugs…
I’m not going to lie. Choosing a rug from Boutique Rugs was an agonizing decision. There were so many gorgeous rugs that would have looked equally well in my fireplace room. As in….drum roll please….a whopping 50K+ plus to select from!
Ultimately, I went with the Bodrum area rug that is one of Boutique Rugs Best Sellers. Over time, I’ve learned that going with a companies Best Seller list is almost always a safe bet.
With 774 reviews with a 4.8 star rating out of 5, how could I go wrong with the Bodrum? And with 33 sizes to choose from in round, square, oval, rectangle or a runner, you can’t go wrong either.
The Bodrum area rug is a mammoth 7′ 10″ x 11″ rectangle and looks so fabulous in my space that I am patting myself on the back right now!
The biggest challenge in choosing a rug is the size. It’s vital the size suits the room. A too small of rug looks squished and smug. But go too big and it may not fit.
It’s aesthetically pleasing to leave a little hardwood exposed, approximately 18 inches on all sides of a rug. The hardwood provides a pretty and natural border, but more importantly, gets protection from the rug.
Also important, you need to consider furniture placement. Do you want to put all the furniture on the rug, half on/half off the rug, or not on the rug at all?
Setting the tone of a room with area rugs
The power of a good area rug is that if you choose wisely, it sets the tone of the whole room.
There’s no doubt my “rug style” is bohemian. It’s what I love in a rug and what I got with the Bodrum rug from Boutique Rugs.
I selected the Bodrum rug because it’s bohemian beautiful and reflects my taste. I also like how it was made in Turkey! So many luscious rugs are fashioned in Turkey.
But it was the color combo of the Bodrum area rug that won my heart. I needed color in my fireplace room and vibrant color I got!
The Bodrum area rug has a cream background with navy, pink, light blue, burnt orange, yellow….essentially every hue in the rainbow bringing life to any room. No wonder it’s one of their Best Sellers!
Not to mention, the art of blending. Rugs with lots of color not only create a focal point but blend the rest of your decor in the room. Last, let’s not underestimate the power of multiple colors hiding dirt and cat hair.
In a perfect world, we’d all vacuum every day. But we live in a very imperfect one…don’t we?
Perfect pricing with Boutique Rugs
So it’s true. If you buy rugs for every area of your home you’re going to go bankrupt. Who can afford that?
But with Boutique Rugs you can afford multiple rugs. Here’s how.
My Bodrum Rug was priced at $570. Not a bad price for a rug measuring 7′ 10″ x 11″ but I wanted cheaper. Don’t you?
So with my affiliate link and 60% off you’ll get the rug for $228. How can you beat that price? You really can’t. Plus FREE shipping? My head is spinning right now.
Perfect style paired with perfect pricing from Boutique Rugs.
Tiny tip for area rugs…
Don’t expect a rug ordered online to lay perfectly flat like a pancake when you lay it down on the floor. It won’t.
Realize that it’s been rolled up a while in storage and shipping. But in about a week? The magic will happen and it will flatten. Yes…even the corners!
Final area rug thoughts…
Can I be blunt? Life is too short for an ugly rug.
An area rug is an object that draws the eye each and every day. Do you really want to look at a rug that you dislike?
Here’s to hoping the dog pukes on it so you can justify throwing it out!?
Don’t live your life this way. I want pretty rugs and you deserve pretty rugs in your home as well.
Boutique Rugs website is so user-friendly and easy to navigate that you will quickly find what you are looking for~ if you can make a decision!
Choose a carpet based on size, price, color, style, material, best seller or new arrival. Easy peasy.
While there don’t forget to look at their home furnishings. You will swoon over Boutique Rugs pillow covers and poufs. And their mirror selection is wonderful!
But the best part is this~ Boutique Rugs prices are so reasonable that you can afford to buy several rugs for your home, not just one. Throw in a little home decor.
Better still. You can also afford the rug pad! All shipped free. Life is good!

You are right – life it too short to have an ugly rug.
Gorgeous rug and I so need it..
I could really use a new rug. Thanks for the chance!
I absolutely love this rug, my style leans heavily towards bohemian. I may or may not have a serious love for rugs. They can totally change a room without fully redecorating and you aren’t committed to wall to wall. I love my hardwood so I go for rugs to change things up.
Your rug is PERFECT! I will be shopping this weekend. I can’t believe the huge selection.
I would like the email for raiseyourgarden.com
I tried a few times and do not use gmail so could you provide another way.
Also I was unable to place the code for your rug email. Is there an easier way to do this from this email?
Thanks
I just moved in and got great idea from you for my garden and home. Thank you. Like I said I just moved in and really could use this beautiful rug. Great well written articles…very enjoyable and helpful.
I am more for traditional and symmetry. But love the vibrant colors of this rug
I’ll be looking for a fabulous room size rug when I tear up the wall to wall carpet in my office. I can’t wait to dump it. Southwest is our style.
this rug is beautiful my wife would love this
👍
We have hardwood floors in our house and use hand loomed rugs made locally all over. Your rug is very pretty…..and apparently fun!
This would be so great! I have some wood floors that are very cold during the winter and a rug would be so much better on my bare feet. These are very lovely too!
Our rug style since we live where it is cold too is carpet in living room and bedroom. I do put area rugs over carpet as hey make me happy!
the baby of the house is growing so quickly! We have a combination of wooden floors, tiles and wall-to-wall carpets. I have one throw rug under our dining room table and would love another one in our lounge. But that will have to wait 🙂
I am more farmhouse style.
I live in a small one bedroom apartment with a comfy boho style.
We have wood floors, carpets, tile- a new rug would be amazing
Oh wow! You chose such a gorgeous rug and your kids look like they’re enjoying it so much.💜 I am in love with their Transitional/Vintage styles and am drooling over their one of a kind rugs. Wow! Just stunning. They look super quality.
Farmhouse all the way! Thank you!
I would love to be able to buy a new rug for my living room.
You have the most beautiful products!

thank you!
Something new to freshen up for the new year.
Rock it up and no sweeping things under the rug!
Cool website first time on it think I will save it
I have hardwood floors too and you are so right. The floors can get cold! Also, a pretty rug can pull a room together and a rug is easier to keep clean than a fully carpeted room.
A rug brings a room to life.
These are beautiful. I’d never heard of the company before. Definitely worth a look!
I like a combination of traditional and contemporary in a rug
Great rugs I wish I could afford them Such high quality
