If you are changing places or simply wish to change the look of your rooms but are tight on a budget, then buying some rugs might do you better than you are currently imagining. Rugs are a healthy alternative to carpets as they don’t require that much maintenance and surely are the ones to fill the room with color.
As to why we think that rugs are so important to at least have one of them in your place, we will tell you about it in the points below.
Healthy Environment:
Have you heard the saying that padded rooms or rooms with floor coverings have better air quality than the ones with hard or wooden flooring? That is because the rugs trap the dust and pollution of the air into their fibers improving the air quality and it can be vacuumed later to be clean.
Sound Proofing:
Rugs protect our ears from the loud bangs or thuds of daily life as they cushion our feet and reduce the force of impact or fall.
Brighten Your Rooms:
If you have rooms with walls and flooring of darker and deeper shades it is a wise choice to lay down a light-toned rug, it will break the monotony of the room and make it look brighter and cheerier.
Theme Changer:
It is amazing how much we can do by using a rug, you can use a rug to instill a sense of grounding in yourself or in the visitors to come, rugs are also used as separators, they can draw a line as to this area is for work and that area is for relaxation and creativity.
Safety First:
Just as having kids brightens your surroundings with them also comes the fear of falls and injuries, rugs do a good job at cushioning falls and preventing injuries, make sure to stick the rug via sticking mats or using linen cloth underneath so that it sticks firmly to the ground. Also, in our homes some places get slippery after cleaning or polishing, you can place a rug over that area to be mindful of the slippery corner.
Cleaning & Maintenance:
Rugs are easy to clean, any mess they get themselves into can be dusted off but the trusty vacuum, whether it be something done by the kids your adorable pet shredding his equally adorable toys, can all be swept under the rug and no one will know it. If there’s a spill then we advise you to clean it up as soon as possible, remove the excess liquid first with a towel or tissues and then clean the spot with professional cleaning agents available in the market, following the instructions of the manufacturer. Imagine such a thing happening to your carpet and you would have to change the whole lot because of a simple mistake
Nowadays homes come without carpeting and it can be difficult to install a carpet amongst all the monetary dealing. Rugs are a better and cheaper alternative more like a pocket-friendly option.
