Best places to look for a very large rug?

9 years ago

Any suggestions please on where to look for a rug?
It needs to be at least 2x3m ideally a bit bigger and made from natural fibres. I like viscose mix as it adds a bit of sheen.
My budget is not huge, max £400-450.
I'd like something quite simple, not flowery or fussy and practical as I have two young boys.
Not an easy brief I know.
(have looked at IKEA but nothing there appeals)
Thanks!

Hiya, Dunelm mill have a few nice ones. A wee trick for you that I had to do in my house... If you want one large mega huge rug, buy 4 with a deep pile and sew together with fishing line. OR look at Carpets, buy the size you want and then ask them if they would edge it for you. Many places will. Just another avenue for you to try, if you can`t see what you really want... Good Luck!

Hello John! :) October Squash painted on the back wall as a feature wall would look gorgeous and brighten up the room, making it really warm and inviting! Here is a link: http://www.paintbyconran.com/en-GB/collections/kitchen-garden/m/product/view/71/preserve-elements Also, have you thought about purchasing any nice throws for the sofas or bright pillows?! I like your plants, too. Perhaps even buy some more plants and make it a themed room? It would look really cool and the warmth of the orange wall and soft throws would balance out the tone of the room perfectly! Let me know if you need anymore help. Georgie :) x

Clara, There is lots to consider when decorating a room or deciding on colour. The number of windows is one of them but we would also take into account the light that comes into those rooms (is it northern light, south light, is it cold or warm), when do you use the room? what artificial light is there? what are your colour prefrences? what items are you placing in the room?.. the list goes on. By thinking about all of these elements individually, we can create a space that is right for you and use colours that work and are functional with the surroundings. For that reason I would always suggest seeking advise from a professional interior designer or colour consultant (we are available for a chat if you would like). If you choose to look at colours yourself, remember to paint your samples onto lining paper and tape to each of your walls, leaving on each wall for 24 to 48 hours, this will allow you to view it in all lights and at all times of the day. It is easy to say a colour looks great when you purchase it on a saturday morning but after painting you realise your only ever use the space in the evening light and it changes the look completely. All the best with your project and do keep us updated. Gina

Thank you everyone, that is a resounding two rugs either matching or complimentary. Got it. Celerygirl - that is an excellent size guide! I completely agree about it having the go under chair legs, I can’t wait to ditch that smaller rug I currently have. Thanks every one.

I like dunelm mills because you can get to read reviews before buying. That way you know if the rug meets your requiremets. I came across 'therange.co.uk', I saw some pretty looking rugs on their website too.

Thanks, will look at all those and at my local J Lewis as the website is limited for large sizes. Like the idea of putting 4 together but I cant sew to save my life!
