It's possible to have a working bedroom
without a rug or carpet, regardless of their size.
However, if you decide to include these items in your bedroom,
they may give your bedroom a major effect.
Therefore, it's worth thinking about getting them.
You can use a rug or carpet to add flair to your bedroom
in several ways.
Here, we are going to discuss dozens of the best of them.
These are 12 ideas on how to use rugs and carpets
to improve the aesthetic and functionality of your bedroom,
even if it is tiny or rented.
As always, Simphome curates the countdown.
No 12. The ideal way to lay a Rug over a Carpet
People put rugs on carpets for several reasons.
They may rent, thus they can't repair the carpet.
A rug is their best bet for covering the damaged area.
Regardless of the cause, you can place a rug over a carpet.
It can brighten your bedroom.
Still, there are things to consider
before picking this alternative.
When placing rugs over carpet, consider texture.
Most bedroom carpets are short-pile.
So, choose a thick shag rug can give texture.
Ensure the carpeting does not float
and fit with existing furnishings.
To achieve this, place the rug under the bed.
You can also put it under a table.
Last, note the pattern.
Do not place a patterned rug over a patterned carpet;
it looks sloppy.
Display only one pattern at once.
No 11. How to shine your bed with a rug
One of the most common methods
is placing the rug underneath the lower two-thirds of the bed.
However, it will only work
if the bed is in the center of the sleeping space.
If you want to go with this layout,
ensure that the rug size is at least 8x10.
It won't be as impressive to look at if it is much smaller.
You will also want the rug to be at the outside edges
are under your feet.
This way, you can step on the rug comfortably
when you get out of bed in the morning.
No 10. Runners on either Side of the Bed
A large area rug that can lie under your bed could be pricey.
Therefore, you can opt for runner rugs
for a more affordable option.
Simply placing a runner rug at each side-end of the bed,
you can instantly and affordably
transform the look of the floor.
Besides, they can offer warm landing spots
when you jump out of bed in the morning.
These runner rugs soften the floor
and help create an aesthetic balance that unifies the space.
No 9. Anchor Them All
Another standard method to lay an area rug
is placing them perpendicularly from the bed.
You need to push it all the way up against the wall
so that it lies right under the primary furniture
in your bedroom, namely the bed and the nightstands.
If you use this layout, you will get extra comfort
when you get up in the morning
because the rug completely covers the area around the bed.
Besides, the large rug will help you define
the most indispensable area in the bedroom
while anchoring the bed and nightstands in place.
No 8. At the End of the Bed
If your bedroom is relatively small
and you do not have enough space for two runner rugs
on both sides of your bed or horizontal orientation,
you can try this layout.
If you want to avoid the rug looking too out of place,
pair it with a bench seat at the foot of the bed.
Close examination revealed
that the rug does require a topping
to prevent it from flopping around.
No 7. A Neutral Carpet Selection for an Elegant Look
Decorating with neutral tones
and the soothing texture of the carpet
adds tenderness and tranquility.
It's ideal for bedrooms and living rooms,
where unwinding is key to a cheerful setting.
Here, the designers adopted neutral room plan,
including a warm grey carpet with a faint sheen.
Blending muted colors with reflective components
produces a modern, international look for the homeowner.
Neutral carpet and cashmere
add to the room's elegant ambience.
No 6. Introduce New Pattern with a Rug
If your bedroom is drab, a rug can refresh your design.
It's the easiest way to decorate
because you don't have to glue it down like wallpaper.
Lay it on the floor, and that's all.
If you introduce a pattern with a rug instead of wallpaper,
you can change its position to get a new harmony.
For example, this flatweave rug from Robert Stephenson
boasts a stunning geometric pattern
that complements the olive and ochre color scheme
and mirrors the bed's angular angles.

No 5. Try Round Rugs
The concept of a round rug may be foreign to some of you.
There is no downside to giving it a shot.
Occasionally, an oval rug would look nicer in a bedroom
than a rectangle.
If your want to highlight curved architectural details
or layer your carpet,
a circular rug is your safest option.
It's also an excellent choice for a bedroom
with rounded pieces of furniture.
This bedroom, for example,
has an upholstered chair and ottoman with a curved design.
Completed with a round rug
in the middle of the room to unify the space.
No 4. Balance the Rustic Look with a Rug
Area rugs do not come in a wide array of designs
for no reason.
Their materials, shapes, and colors offer functionality
and style at the same time to meet your need.
If your bedroom is devoid of color,
feature distressed finishes,
and use stone flooring to accentuate the rustic style.
A wool or nylon rug
can also help add more comfort to your space.
No 3. Highlight the Special Feature in Your Bedroom
You might fall into the belief that an area rug
should highlight the bed,
so you tend to lay it around the bed.
Nothing could be further from the truth.
You can always lay the rug
to accentuate other pieces of furniture, too, if you want,
such as the armchair or the dresser in your bedroom.
For example, you can lay a medium-sized rug
under a plush armchair to create a comfortable reading nook.
The rug will also complement the end table
and floor lamp nicely.
No 2. Round the rug under the legs
You can place a round rug under the bed's foot
to create a soft landing spot.
However, some bedrooms cannot use one or two round rugs.
It's usually a smaller bedroom
where conventional rug measurements wouldn't work.
There are also bedrooms (especially in older homes)
with floor vents preventing rugs
from being placed on top of them.
A round rug comes in handy in this situation,
and it's a great way to add coziness to the bedroom.
A rug is also essential if the bedroom has hard flooring.
