San Diego, CAA: How to pick the right sized area rug
Choosing the right size area rug for your home is important. There are many things to consider. Do you want your furniture to overlap the rug, or would you like to nest your rug in the center? What about shapes, how will they compliment your decor? A photograph of a room can be very helpful if you bring it to your flooring retailer. Using masking tape or newspaper to outline where the rug will go can be a helpful tool for visualizing the final effect. Take paint chips and fabric samples you have with you when you purchase rug or carpet. I would recommend that you leave at least two feet from the wall to the rug.
