Can you dye bath rugs?
Comments (9)DM just dyed her bath towels and bath rug a beautiful deep purple. She used Rit Dye and they came out great. I mean they look brand spanking new. In fact, some of the bath towels she dyed were decorative towels that had some lacey trim and the lace came up a teeny bit lighter which looks so nice on the deep purple. golddust - why not Rit? Geez, I hope she's not made some major mistake that she can't undo? DM's towels and bath mat were pale yellow and she wanted to change things up a bit. Had the Rit in the house and used it....See MoreNo More Rubber-Backed Bath Rugs
Comments (23)I had a stroke in 2001, spent 6 weeks in hospital getting rehab. When I was discharged, a visiting therapist came to my house to make suggestions for safety, etc. He suggested I get rid of all throw rugs, but I insisted on keeping my bathroom throw because it was pretty and part of a "set", you know those matchy-matchy sets with a tank cover and everything? So I was careful and nothing bad happened. His other suggestions included hand rails at all doors, stairs,etc. Plus several grab rails around the bathtub and toilet area. Again I resisted but I found attractive grab rails that double as towel hangers. Then in 2010 my husband had a terrible setback in his MS (Multiple Sclerosis). He had a bad reaction to some medication, had seizures and ended up in a Rehab Hospital for several months. Before he came home, I threw away that bath rug. I knew he would be coming home with a wheelchair and that darned old rug was a hazard. So out it went. I don't miss it one bit and the bathroom looks so much neater and cleaner without it....See MoreAre Bath Mats / Bath Rugs 'out'? PB? RH
Comments (52)Okay, I've never liked anything that *looks like* bathroom or kitchen rugs. That doesn't mean I don't like a rug in the bathroom though - I just want something pretty and decorative. I also don't like the fact that many bathroom rugs, people step out of the shower/tub wet on the rugs and then they sit there damp. I use a long oriental type rug in front of the double vanity. Nothing un front of the tub or shower. What we do is use the bath mats (like a thick towel) and lay those over the side of the tub when finished. They dry out quickly and are laundered often. That said, I'm certainly not saying what is in or out of style or what someone should do, just the personal preference around our house LOL. tina...See Morehalf bath rug/design dilemma
Comments (5)I agree that I would only do one rug, and probably the size of the one in front of the toilet ( or a bit bigger) but placed in front of the sink. I never thought about it, but someone had mentioned that having it in front of the toilet is not the most appealing idea ( sanitary etc). I would also go with some sort of pattern and color....See Morekaylie15
