This week's Daily Dose is about selecting the right Area Rug. There are no hard and fast rules about color, it is more about selecting the right size, weight, and dimension for your space.
Tonight, I want to address the most common question I get; "Can I put and area rug on top of carpet?" The answer is "YES". In fact, I encourage it if you have plain, low pile wall to wall carpeting. In this example, you can see how the texture and pattern of this rug fills the vast flatness of the wall to wall carpet and adds much needed dimension. When you place an area rug over carpet, you just want to make sure it is thick and heavy so that it lays flat and stands up to activity; also, add a rug pad specifically for between area rugs and carpets, this will help extend the life of both your area rug and carpet.
