Teal Rugs; Bringing a Splash of Colour to your Home

Bring a Splash of Colour to Your Home with Teal Rugs

Every year it seems there’s a new colour that’s the year’s must-have. And because you’ve read the title already, you may well have guessed that 2014 is all about… that’s right: teal.

Perhaps the best way to describe teal is that it’s an almost perfect mix of green and blue. A peppy, vibrant colour with a lot of life, it’s no surprise that teal rugs are proving so popular this year. And here at Rugs Direct we’re never ones to shirk the trends, so we’ve got a host of superb teal rugs for you to try out for size. Here are our favourites.

Whisper Dark Teal Rug

If textured rugs are your thing, then you’ll just love this Whisper Dark Teal Rug. Crafted with a long pile to give a soft sheen, this rug is made in China from 100% polyester. Its rich teal colouring is enhanced by the design of the pile itself, with shades of light and dark appearing in its midst depending on the way each fibre has fallen. A truly eye-catching teal rug that’ll be at home in any room.

Nina Blossom Teal Rug

Made in Egypt using a hard-wearing material to ensure this teal rug will stand the test of time, the Nina Blossom Teal Rug is one of our customers’ favourites. Immediately striking, the rug is notable for its intricate and ornate design which uses teal as its backdrop. The design is hand-carved into the rug, making every one of these teal rugs a truly unique and individual piece.

The Peaks Matlock Teal Rugs

The Peaks Matlock Teal Rugs are actually a collection of rugs that are a true celebration of the colour. Made from a durable 100% acrylic material, this is a hard-wearing teal rug – but the real star of this show is the eye-catching design. Rather than simply sticking with a flat teal colour all the way through, this range of rugs uses unique patterns to explore the various shades of teal – and it’s something that makes them truly special.

Are you ready to bring a real splash of colour to your home with one of our teal rugs? Then why not explore our ever-growing range of teal rugs today? And if you have any questions, you can call our friendly team on 0845 838 8638 for some free expert advice.

Matching rugs for each room by using Rugs Direct Online

Matching your rugs with each room is an art, and with some simple thought, modern rugs can transform areas of the house.

If your living room or area has a door on to the garden then it is great to try and connect the two, when the doors are wide open. Now summer is approaching (I know some would say it is here!), it is time to start thinking about how will you entertain this summer if, just as you are outside the temperature drops a little and people would prefer to be inside or that light shower arrives just as the BBQ has been lit. You don’t want to lose that garden feel or connection as your guests enjoy the evening.

Using bright colours in your rug that match the flowers in the garden is a great way to connect that living room and the garden. Or if you have a hanging basket outside any bedroom window, match the rug with the window box arrangement and the eye will be drawn to both and create the connection with the outside.

A fresh bright new rug next to the outside door may also encourage guests to take shoes off as they enter the house, especially good when your parties are interrupted by light rain. Then you can provide your guests with a wonderful luxurious feel as their bare feet step into your house. 

The other benefit is if people step in from the garden onto the rug first without removing their shoes, then once they have gone you can remove the rug for cleaning and your carpet or laminate will still look wonderful for the rest of the week.

Buying rugs online can be a great way to assess which rug in which room, as you can walk around with the laptop or tablet and see if the colours are the right ones or that particular room

A New Year, A New Look?

Revitalise Your Home For 2013

The rush and excitement of Christmas is well and truly over and 2013 is now in full swing.  A new year can bring about a lot of questions about ourselves from our career goals to our lifestyle. 

A New Year means a whole new set of possibilities and opportunities and we often find ourselves clearing out the old and bringing in the new. 

For some of us this allows us to let go of the past and welcome a new beginning and fresh start. For others it is simply spring cleaning coming early or taking advantage of some Christmas money to spend on ourselves for a change. 

Whatever your reason may be, one of the easiest ways to revitalise your home or work place is by adding a rug to it. Not only does a new rug instantly lift a dull and faded carpet, or create a soft warm feeling underfoot on hard floors, it also adds colour, warmth and personality to any room. 

Rugs come in a variety of sizes and prices to suit all rooms and budgets. They range in style from traditional designs to modern and elegant, to funky ‘out there’ designs! There really is a rug to suit every room and every personality. 

 

If you are in search of a new you and a new home without moving or picking up a paint brush then browse through our website and see what takes your fancy. You can even add rugs to your ‘wishlist’ and come back to them another day.

 If you have any questions we are always happy to help on the other end of the phone or by email.

Rugs Direct - Newsletter - (05/09/12)

We haven’t had such a great summer this year in the UK, so how about cheering yourself up with one of the fantastic new quality rugs we’ve added to Rugs Direct from the renowned carpet designers, Asiatic. They are world leaders in fashion rugs and have won awards for their well designed and innovative products. 

From their contemporary rug collection we’re featuring the Jazz range. These rugs are made from 50% polyester, 30% wool and 20% viscose and are heavy with varying pile heights that accentuate the subtle geometric patterns. The plain colours have understated metallic highlights adding to an opulent and sophisticated feel. These are chic rugs that will add both luxury and distinction to your room.

Keeping the emphasis on luxury, we have the Kura range made from 100% polyester with all the benefits of an easy to manage yarn. These rugs have been hand tufted with a dense and deep pile, making them very soft underfoot. An organic scroll design has been etched into the thick pile creating a distinctive pattern. Luxurious and beautiful these are some of the best examples of modern rug design at affordable prices.

The Brilliant rug collection is again hand woven from 100% polyester but this time they’ve used a loop pile. The loop weave creates a thick pile and reflects the light giving a lovely shimmering effect. These rugs bring a warm yet sophisticated feel to any space.

If you’re looking for modern rugs combining luxury with a slightly minimalist feel these are three ranges to take a look at.
