area rug suggestions and layouts for living room?
Comments (24)I would stick with earth tones and find something that has just a small splash of the red in it so it will compliment the tile used in your hearth, like the rug above. These are similar with the same color pallette and at least have the colors in them and also include a little blue. This one is a different style in the same color scheme. If you go to HomeDepot.com and search for floor rugs, they have a HUGE selection, 2900 or so. I would suggest that you spend a little bit of time flipping through it just to see what you like. Save the images and bring them back here to show us. Once you find the rug, then you can pull a color from it for curtains in (if you're changing them) and maybe some sofa pillows or accessories. As for the mirror, I'm glad that you like that idea. I'm posting some pics to give you an idea of placement. You could even go with a round mirror, the only problem with the one you have is the scale is off so a larger round mirror could be pretty with the sconces. This one doesn't have the sconces but I love how it's just casually sitting on the mantel. Less formal. I'd probably not go any closer to the sconces than about 6 inches give or take....See MoreLog house living = LOTS of wood... living room area rug help please!
Comments (11)I have lived in 2 log homes. I understand your problem! Do you have any interior stonework also? Last time I was in this position, I tried to pull the base color of the rug from the lightest tone in the stone on my fireplace, so that I didn't end up with too much going on. Jewel tones do seem to work well, also. I like the last 3 you posted in the comments. It is really hard to pick unless you can see the rugs in person, too. I ended up ordering my last rug through a local furniture store, where I could see and feel samples. They ended up being very competitive on price. I tried ordering online first, and the colors always seemed a little "off" once I got them rolled out in my wood-everywhere house....See MoreChoosing area rugs for living room and kitchen
