Transform A Room With A Fake Sheepskin Rug

By Jason Allen


Many people want to decorate a room in their home but are often intimidated by the process. Keeping things simple helps with cost and maintenance but the space can still become fabulous with just a few touches. Things like a fake sheepskin rug can transform a living space with one step.

Unlike area rugs of yesteryear, these new models have a look and feel like they came from the outdoors. The difference is that most are safe for machine washing but it may be best for a professional cleaning service to handle stains. There are also many colors and textures to complement any room theme.

Dark grey and off white are often good choices for those who like to keep the room theme neutral. Light or white faux fur rugs work better in homes that are cleaned frequently or have little foot traffic. Bright colors are great for bringing a splash or focal point in a room. Sometimes little things, like candles or pictures frames, can be practical accents that do not cost much.

Many are in love with the texture of a real sheepskin rug but may want an alternative that does not involve animals. These days, rugs may feel smooth and silky but are made from synthetic materials that are easy to clean and store. The great thing is that there are no hard rules in which should be used in a space, as some may desire contrast by using a coarse textured rug in a room that may be considered contemporary or modern in style.

Although some may go for a look they saw in a magazine, experimenting is a lot more fun. People live different lives and may have needs, like having their media collection within arms reach instead of against the wall. In some cases, it may be more practical to hang an area rug like a large picture, as opposed to laying it on the floor. Those with pets or small children in the home may want to consider doing this to avoid possible spills.

Anyone without a clue as to the direction they should take may want to look online for inspiration. There are many social media sites with ideas and tips that cost nothing. Many of these deal with common situations like small spaces, dealing with walls, or choosing the right color theme combination. By looking up a color wheel, one can see the many possibilities.

While most buy a large area rug to cover and protect a carpet or floor, it may also have other uses. Place it against a furnishing of a like hue or use as a place to sit near a coffee table or fireplace. Anyone with concerns about excess dirt can talk to a cleaning specialist about treatment that prevents stains from setting in.

Living in a bland space is no fun for most people. Even renters can find some creative ways to make their home look fabulous without breaking any rules. By exploring what books, magazines, and websites have to offer, one can find a look that will satisfy their needs. After a while, others may think that a trained interior decorator was used.
