5 Reasons Your Rug Is Wrong

The right rug can completely transform a room, while the wrong one can throw off the entire design. In this episode of Dear Alice, we're sharing five common rug mistakes and explaining how to choose the right rug size, style, construction, and material for your home.

We discuss why a rug should anchor your furniture, how to use color and pattern to build a room's design identity, and what to know about hand-knotted, hand-tufted, hand-woven, and power-loomed rugs. We also break down the pros and cons of wool, silk, cashmere, jute, and viscose, helping you choose materials that suit your lifestyle and the way you use each space.

Plus, we share practical rug care tips, including how to vacuum properly, when to rotate your rug, how to choose a rug pad, and how to protect your investment for years to come. Whether you're furnishing a new home or refreshing a single room, this episode is full of interior design advice to help you choose a rug that feels beautiful, intentional, and timeless.
