Help Find a Suitable Rug for Master Bedroom

6 years ago

Hey Houzzers! :)

Just like subject line says, need some help finding a rug for our master that works with the look/theme. I'd like a 9' x 12' and as reasonably priced as possible... any links or even ideas/photos would be so much appreciated!

Here are a couple of pics. Still need art (commissioned, currently being worked on), intend to put an antique white mirror over dresser; obviously not done decorating, but these will give a good idea of the overall look.

I'd like to keep it light and possibly tie in the blue/gray color of bench and lamps (they are the same shade of stormy blue) and different shades of white.

Thanks in advance!

I love your room and would continue in the soft colors you have already.

Hi anomoley-

What a peaceful room!

You haven't said what type of rug you are looking for-

A Persian rug? Other Oriental rug? A contemporary floral? A modern geometric? What is your price point?

What will be the colors in your commissioned art? Please say there will be more color than stormy blue and white! That room definitely needs some zip even though it is a bedroom, and some zip would not make it any less restful.

Here are some carpets in your colorways. They are all 9 x 12, the size you need under a King bed.

This is a wool and silk hand-knotted rug made in Jaipur

These next two are Chinese made rugs in the Aubusson style. They come in every color way with all sorts of patterns and colors, they have very soft colors and are considered quite romantic in look. You can get them with a much lighter, white/ivory overall look with only little touches of color, and carving of the pile for a three dimensional feel and look.

Once you have your art and your carpet, I would add some more color to the room in the form of pillow shams in a print or colors that coordinate with the carpet and/or the artwork over the bed.

I would get a live plant for the room, if you can find space for a large potted one like a great kentia palm, that would be great. If not, there is always space for a glass cylinder with straight and curved lucky bamboo. Even "brown thumbs" can keep those alive.

What a nice room! Love the window sill and white walls. Great scandi feel, indeed. Also love the armoire and its contrast with the white walls and spare modern style. Agree with scooting it towards the wall a smidge or two more. That R&B bed and the elephant print are gorgeous. When I saw the print, I thought why not use that fabric as a headboard? Either hung from a pole to match the sill or covering a padded board. (Whatever is easier to clean.) To my eye, the "sill" gives the feeling of a headboard. In the pics at least. I'd keep the rest of the bedding mostly white. I think a dark vertical print across the armoire would look good too. I'd choose sleek and closed nightstands and add a tall-ish white ceramic vase to hold some greenery on one or both. I'm not a fan of large rugs in bedrooms simply because I hate vacuuming and I have a dust mite allergy. If I had a concrete floor, I think I'd opt for washable area rugs on each bedside. Hope you'll share pics when it's "done",

How sweet! :) I think this looks so cute and soft: https://www.rugsusa.com/rugsusa/rugs/rugs-usa-carved-polka-dot-shag/Ivory/200OZOT02A-2808.html?srcid=GSN&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIntSNhKrA9AIVdxPUAR1ftgmiEAQYAyABEgJCmvD_BwE The fun colors work without being too busy, I think: Of course any solid color would work, too, either neutral or more bold. https://rugs.com/yellow-9x12-marrakesh-shag-area-rug-6288714?gclid=EAIaIQobChMIsu_6lazA9AIVtxTUAR2p7woEEAQYAyABEgKAG_D_BwE

That is a gorgeous room--you have a wonderful design sensibility!

I'd try to add a rug with some soft color and pattern, something like these:

Anatolia Vintage Area Rugs, Light Blue, 10'x14' · More Info

Sierra Mar Capri Robin's Egg Oriental 5'6"x8'3" Karastan Rug (33008) · More Info

or a textured natural fiber rug like these:

Safavieh Natural Fiber Collection NF458 Rug, Bleach/Natural, 8' X 10' · More Info

Safavieh Natural Fiber Collection NF454 Rug, Blue/Natural, 8' X 10' · More Info

here's a flatweave stripe:
Surya Ravena Rvn-3012 3'3"x5'3" Rug · More Info

The first 2 are more traditional, and the last 3 more neutral and contemporary, but I think any of them would work in your beautiful room!

What a beautiful, soft, romantic room. At first I was thinking of a large soft cream rug, but then thought maybe a vintage faded bohemian rug would work well too as it brings in that old world (looking) element into your room. Make sure the rug you do decide to get is large enough for the bedroom

You all are wonderful, thanks for your kind words and also your ideas. I wouldn't have considered a more colorful rug, but looking at these in soft palettes, they really would work quite well.

The art will be softly colored (nothing bold), but WILL incorporate bits of color other than white and blue. And we will be placing a plant in the far right corner between dresser and nightstand, there is plenty of space there for a large one.

In fact, if anyone has ideas for a large plant which would thrive by a north facing window in a west facing room, that would be much appreciated.

Any other tips or ideas welcome... otherwise will update when this comes together a bit more. :)

havingfun: Thanks for your ideas! I love the 4th one down, I think I'd like that best... but it doesn't come in a 9x12 size. I like the Pottery Barn one too, but not sure if it would look a little too monochromatic? I'm planning to photoshop some rugs into the room and post them up when I get a chance, for some feedback. :)

Thank you <3

celerygirl... you have some skills!! =-O

Thank you so much for doing that, super helpful! I do intend to put a mirror over the dresser for sure, I think it'll be nice to have it reflect the window from across the room... and I love the mirror you chose, that window-like shape looks awesome (and not what I expected I'd like!).

Also really love the rug now! Wish it came in a 9x12. =-/

You ROCK!!

Just an update: The beautiful rug havingfun found was eliminated because hubby felt it was too much blue, and we read that it sheds (which would be terrible for us because we're clean freaks).

The images I'm posting here are of rugs we're currently considering. Here's the link to a poll I started: https://www.houzz.com/discussions/help-choose-a-rug-for-master-bedroom-dsvw-vd~5184549 please participate. :)
