How To Measure For Round Rugs

Many of us use floor rugs at home as part of our decorating. We pick these rugs based on our personal preferences and the current theme that we have at home. One type of rug that is really versatile and can be used anywhere in the home is the round rugs. So how do you purchase the right sized round rug for your home? Purchasing these rugs should not be a tough or near impossible task. All you need is to remember some pointers and the rest is easy.

The first thing we need to do before purchasing the round rug is to look at the available space. How big is this space? How big a rug do you want? Most times, you would need a rug to cover up most of the space yet at the same time still allow for some space between where the rug ends and the wall begins. So first of all, measure the furnished area where you want to place your rug. Then, subtract about 24 inches from the width and length of the area. This will be your rug size or the diameter of the rug. With this technique you will have a nice border of about 12 inches from the perimeter of the rug to the wall.

The above works well for a living room, as in a living room, all your furniture are placed either entirely on or off the rug, with the exception of the sofa, which can be placed with the two back legs on the floor. However, if you are looking for a round rug for a dining room, your method is slightly different. In a dining room setting, you need to have all your furniture on the rug even when the chairs are all pulled back. For this, you need to measure the table length and width and add about 54 inches to this. This will give you a nice 27 inch border all around the table so that your chairs will still be on the rug even when they are pulled back.

Once you keep these pointers in mind, you will find it much easier to narrow down your search for the right sized round rug for your home.
