Southwestern Wool Rugs

Why Southwestern Wool Rugs?

When you use southwestern wool rugs in a room's décor, it becomes more inviting and aesthetically appealing. Get ready to transform your décor!

From cowhide to cacti, Southwestern style interior décor is not a passing trend—it’s here to stay. It has been around for hundreds of years, but it has become even more popular in homes today. Rustic and cozy, Southwestern style can be sprinkled throughout the house or used as an all-in approach. And southwestern style wool area rugs are perfect for either method.

If you’re ready to use rugs to add more southwestern flair to your home, here are some of our favorite rustic looks:

• You could place a 5x8 wool southwestern rug in the bedroom beside the bed. The soft surface will feel like walking on clouds every morning, and you'll have the chance to add warm colors to your space. Consider a red/brown theme with turquoise accents. If you have a larger room, you can go for an 8x10, 9x12 or larger rug pick.
• A southwestern wool runner rug works well in hallways that don't receive a lot of soil and moisture. Halls often need more personality to make the space feel inviting, so this is an excellent chance to use bold patterns and bright colors.
• You might use a southwestern flat weave wool rug in a low-traffic dining or living room. Wool is a naturally durable material, but it doesn’t take well to higher levels of soil and moisture. The flatweave design will, however, make it more durable and easier to clean.

A Closer Look At Southwestern Style Wool Area Rugs

One of the best things about Southwestern décor is that you can make it your own without compromising on taste or style. It can be subtle and neutral or bold and bright; it's all about rustic charm and earthy colors throughout the space.

For example, you might use a light-washed wood for your tables and chairs with soft browns and tans used throughout your home.

Are Southwestern Wool Rugs Right For Me?

As long as you love the southwestern style and want to integrate it with your existing décor, Southwestern style wool area rugs will work great in your home! Just remember to place them in areas that don’t receive elevated levels of soil or moisture and follow all cleaning instructions carefully.

Before you make your purchase, make a list of things to look for in specifications. The points below should get you started:

• Color: Examine your existing décor to decide what color or colors would work best for your rug. Pick something that will go with your current palette.
• Size: Measure your room carefully and test your rug dimensions in masking tape on the floor to double-check yourself.
• Thickness: If the rug will have a door that swings over it, measure the space between the floor and the bottom of the door. This is the maximum thickness to prevent catching.
