You already know I am going to say it... your area rug is probably TOO SMALL. And here is the thing most people don't realize: a small rug doesn't just look off, it actually makes your entire room look smaller too. Size matters, friends. š
But here is the hack that completely blew my mind. My friend Daniel found a gorgeous large scale hand knotted rug ā yes they are an investment, but stick with me, and instead of using it in one room he had it cut down into two separate rugs. One went into his dining room and one into his entry. Not only did he get two beautiful, properly sized rugs for the price of one, but now his home has this seamless, cohesive color story flowing from the moment you walk in the door all the way through to the dining room. One rug. Two spaces. Zero compromise. š¤Æ That is the kind of creative thinking that makes a home feel like it was designed with real intention.
