What size rug do I need?

8 years ago

Need a rug for my bedroom - I have a King Sized bed with a couch (which we are going to re-cover) and thinking of putting table (in second picture) in front of the couch - it is a really large room.

    This arrangement really shows off your bed frame. I would move the sofa and table a little closer to the TV wall and still lower the TV. Just add rugs and decor! It will be beautiful!

    Runners on sides of bed as well. Forgot to add those.

      Pick a rug (oriental or North African would work well) large enough to fill the space between the sofa and the dresser. An oval coffee table would work.

      and under the bed? or only put a rug under sofa and coffee table - not buying a new one - the one is picture matches perfectly with furniture...

      Beautiful room! Before you select a rug, I would get your arrangement complete. You have a beautiful bed frame that is hidden by the couch. I would use the couch and coffee table as a separate sitting area in the room. Could we please see the other side of the room?

      I think a chaise lounge chair would look good at the end of your bed, your couch hides your pretty bed

      Can't buy any new furniture - need to use what I have, other priorities at the moment. Here is the room from the other direction.

      See pic below. I would lower your tv. Move the sofa towards the tv for a sitting area. Move dresser on right to wall near bed.

      Use one rug under the sitting area (large enough to fit under the front legs of the furniture or larger). One rug under bed area (see sizing pics above (from Irene Morresey).

      Sloane,since they make area rugs in certain sizes, I would use a 8x10 area rug with the 10 ft going across the widthe of the bed, otherwise we could measure and make a custom size that would fit the room size and the bed size....

      Ok. Switched things around - what does everyone think?

    • 8 years ago

      Okay, I like that. Now i would put a area rug under the table and couch and two carpet runners at the sides of the bed.

      Try moving your night stands so they face forward - no caddy corners. I really like your new arrangement. Your bed is beautiful.

      Beverly - where would I put the dresser? and the stereo? Already straightened night stands... :-) and would that be 8 x 10 rug?

      Is there room to put the 2 dressers next to each other on the tv wall?
    • 8 years ago

      Too many big white clumbering pieces in this room - it is getting busy!The bed with the cut out design is the busiest. The coffee table is much too large for the sofa. What is the room through the French doors? Is that the only access to it, or could you drape those doors and center your bed there? It is really crowding the windows at the end of the room and leaving you no room for drapes to soften all the big furniture.
