Custom Rugs
Custom rugs are an excellent way to enhance the style and comfort of any living space. They are designed to fit perfectly within your home's dimensions, colour scheme, and decor, offering a personalized touch that is both unique and functional. If you're considering a custom area rug, there are a few steps you'll need to take to ensure a successful outcome.
Step 1: Choose a Design
The first step in creating a custom area rug is to choose a design. There are several ways to approach this, depending on your preferences and needs. You can start by looking online for inspiration or visiting a showroom to see the different styles and materials available. You can also work with a professional designer who can help you create a custom design that fits your specific needs and preferences.
Step 2: Choose a Material
Once you have a design in mind, the next step is to choose a material. Area rugs can be made from a variety of materials, including wool, silk, cotton, and synthetic fibres. Each material has its unique features, such as durability, texture, and feel. You'll want to choose a material that matches the design you've chosen, as well as your budget and lifestyle. Typically, we recommend wool as it is the best material when it comes to overall rug quality.
Step 3: Choose a Size
After choosing the design and material, you'll need to determine the size of your custom area rug. This will depend on the dimensions of your living space and the placement of furniture. You'll want to measure the area carefully to ensure that your rug fits perfectly and complements the space.

Step 4: Choose a Colour Combination
The next step is to choose a colour combination that complements your design and enhances the overall look of your space. You can choose bold colours or more subtle hues, depending on your preferences and the style of your home. You can also choose a patterned rug or a solid-coloured rug, depending on your taste and the overall look you want to achieve.
Step 6: Wait for delivery
Once you've placed your order, it's time to sit back and wait for your custom area rug to be delivered. Depending on the complexity of the design and the materials used, it could take anywhere from a few weeks to a few months for your rug to be completed.
Step 7: Enjoy your new rug!
Finally, once your custom area rug has been delivered, it's time to enjoy it! Place it in your space and enjoy the warmth and style that it adds to your home.
