Distressed Area Rug - Add Some Old World Charm and Warmth to Your Floor

If you are decorating your own space or a rented space, you don't have to spend thousands on the flooring.  Sure it would be nice if you could add some old oak plank flooring to accent your industrial or rustic styling, but this is not always practical.  But what you can do is add some rugs.   Love the Steampunk Style?  Check out this PAGE.

You could add a distressed area rug that looks old and worn and yet is perfectly in good shape but simply accents your old world style pieces and industrial floor lamps or whatever style you choose.  

An area rug doesn't have to be large to really make an impact on a room.  It could be just in front of the couch or your favourite chair and not only look super cool but keep your feet warm too.

Just make sure to use some non slip lining under them if you are placing them on tile, hardwood or any shiny surface, to stop them from moving around, or pin them down with the coffee table etc.  You don't want to be tripping.

As I check online I found some really cool ideas for industrial style area rugs to compliment your pieces.  Some are more affordable than others and it all depends if you want a splash of color or simply a distressed old look
​

You can take a plain room and decorate it from top to bottom in industrial, rustic or old world design using industrial floor lamps, or table lamps, or light fixture if you own your space.  Even if you rent you can get creative with portable rustic ideas, such as table lamps, artwork, faux brick walls, and distressed area rugs.  

I was quite excited to find these online with Amazon, as my local decorating and lighting store simply did not cater to this look.  Adding the area rug is a way to complete your look without replacing flooring.  Sure it would be nice to have wide plank old world floors, but this is not always possible.  But with all the products you can find online now, you can minimize the things you don't want to show by adding pieces such as the distressed, vintage and old styling floor rugs.  Depending on your budget many come in room sizes to cover any floor.

If you have a blank wall, cover it with faux industrial curtain panels, or artwork,  or even a large old world clock is a quick and easy way to change your decor.

So if you want to update your room to match your personality, don't automatically think renovation, it can be done if you get creative with pieces and before you know it, this room will be your soft place to land at the end of a long day!
