Rag Rugs

Make an Impression Underfoot with Rag Rugs

Whether in the hall or entryway, a cotton rag rug adds texture to the room. Solid shades of blue, grey or yellow bring a subtle expression of color, while many-hued mats blend different patterns and tones into a single design. Either way, the chunky weave provides an engaging appearance and feel underfoot. In the foyer, decorative elements—vases, botanicals and wall art—in coordinating colors make a unified statement. Alternatively, use a rug to brighten up the kitchen or utility room, arranging it beside the sink to catch drips as you wash dishes or laundry. Find a rag rug that's reversible for added versatility. Then, draw its color as inspiration for other linens in the same area, such as towels and curtains.
