Where to Place a Rug in your Living Room

Hello! My name is Judy Williams on behalf of Expert Village and today we’re talking about different ways to decorate your living room on a budget. Okay, you’ll notice my cushion here on the floor and what I have done is gone ahead and laid my cushion down and folded back the excess. Then I’ll tilt my rug back and cut off what I don’t need. I wanted to make sure that I had that in place first. This cushion is just purchased at a local home supply store, it’s very inexpensive but wears extremely well. You’ll notice that this rug is folded in half right now. What I did was quarter my rug, I had it folded over and then pulled it back and I’m centering my medallion, the center pattern with the fireplace. As you pull the rug forward, if you’ll have someone on the other side just provides some tension pull it against you and walk together. It’s very easy to install one of these rugs. Thank you. You’ll notice now, that my medallion is centered with the fireplace. Once I have my rug in place, I had already predetermined the color of my walls because that is my large space and I selected across between the color that runs around the border of this rug and is repeated throughout the rug. That is the color that’s on my wall, just one shade deeper to add a little depth. There’s a lot of light in this room, so I wanted a little depth of coloring.
