The Best Southwestern Rugs for Your Home

Rugs are fabulous ways to add style to your home. Not only are they nice to look at, but they protect your floors from everyday wear and tear. Southwestern-style rugs are particularly great for those who want to add a patterned, Western flair to their home. Here are some that we recommend.

Buying a Southwestern Rug

Here’s what you should consider:

• Size: Rugs come in a wide array of sizes to fit in any space. To make sure the rug you select isn’t too big or small for your area, measure where you want to lay it down.
• Material: Rugs can be made using a variety of materials. Some of these materials may be more durable than others. If your rug will be used in a high-traffic area or outdoors, make sure the blend they are made with is ideal for those situations.
• Care: Rugs are known for being highly durable, but some may need more maintenance than others. Some may need to be professionally cleaned, while others can be tossed in the washing machine. Keep in mind how much work you’re willing to put into maintaining your rug before selecting one to buy.
