Romantic Rugs

There are different styles of rug for different kinds of rooms and different types of people. Everyone's tastes vary. Some people will do for a classical Persian rug every single time. Minimalsts only want smart, modern geometric designs. Artsy folks might go for a bold color, and classicists might want a good classic look. Other people simply want a nice beige or brown rug, nothing fancy. On the other extreme, I have a friend who only buys carpets that look like Jackson Pollock paintings. I think they make the room look cluttered, but of course he never listens to me.

But what about the romantics among us?

Any romantic worth his salt is going to want a super soft rug in front of the fireplace- something that one can walk over, barefoot, to get that wonderful fuzzy sensation, or sprawl out on to snuggle up with a blanket. A new rug that will allure the sense of touch, making you run your fingers over it again and again. Something that will catch the candlelight, soften the room, make hearts flutter. It may seem like a silly idea, but an incredibly soft floor cover can completely change the dynamics of a room, and of a rendezvous. Guests who come over and find comfortable seating on the floor will be disarmed, lower their barriers, feel more at home.

There are plenty of carpets that match that description! Plus, soft carpets are always a win with small children, who, spending more time closer to the gorund and gamboling around in general, appreciate a soft surface on which to do so. And their little heads will thank you, too, because when an inevitable trip and fall occur, the soft cushioning of the living room Romantic rug will soften the blow.
