Guest Picks: 20 Affordable Area Rugs
Bring some interest to your floor with one of these budget-friendly patterned area rugs
The floor in front of my couch is looking awfully bare. The requirements? A fun patterned rug that doesn't cost more than $1,000. — Melanie from You Are My Fave
Hand-Hooked Chelsea Southwest Multicolor Wool Rug
I don't usually go for Southwest motifs, but I saw this rug in a bedroom that wasn't themed and the colors and patterned looked modern and fresh.
Bead Silhouette Printed Rug
A modern pop of pattern and color. It's on the small side but would make a great addition to a kitchen or laundry room.
Island Graphite Chevron Rug
A nice neutral rug with a subtle chevron pattern can be easily added to any room.
Up-Close Cranesbill Rug
This contemporary abstract pattern will add color and interest to your floor. I like that the main color is a nice shade of gray instead of a white that dirties easier.
Expanding Colorscape Rug
My husband is concerned with the coziness of the rug we choose. This will give him the softness he wants while not compromising on the pattern I want.
Rosa Area Rug
I like the safe color of this one. It wouldn't be hard to match and it sill carries interest.
Chrysanthemum Area Rug
Although florals are often seen as girly, the large-scale pattern and navy color of this rug make it a little more masculine. At least that's the argument I would give to my husband.
Droplets Hooked Wool Rug
This droplet reminds me of the classic stem pattern from Orla Kiely. That's a win in my book.
Houndstooth Flat-Weave Wool Rug
Houndstooth is one of those classic patterns that I don't think I'll ever tire of. If you stare at it for too long it might cause a headache though.
Nomad Sculpted Rug
I usually don't go for red, but combine it with a nice gray and it looks sharp enough to blanket the floor.
Spinnaker Woven Cotton Rug
Dash and Albert have stripes down. I love how brightly colored this rug is, as well as the affordable price.
Firouz Shadow Ikat Ivory Rug
This ikat pattern looks way more lush and expensive than it really is. It almost looks like something from the pages of a magazine.
Handmade Alexa Modern Damask Wool Rug
How long has the damask pattern been around? Long enough to know that it's always going to be a classic.
Amy Butler Hand-Tufted Ivory Floral New Zealand Wool Rug
Amy Butler knows how to work a pattern, and this floral rug is no exception. It's a great price for the designer look.
Tattersall Black/Ecru Woven Cotton Rug
I feel like this one would fit in well at a cabin. It kind of screams "mountain man."
Handmade Alexa Pino Suzani Rug
I haven't really considered lavender, but I'm thinking it could definitely work paired with navy and gray.
Homespun Modern Trelllis Charcoal Rug
Gray is my favorite neutral, and this trellis pattern feels classic yet fresh. Is that possible?
