Your Guide to Choosing the Best Rugs for a Stylish & Cosy Bedroom
Imagine your first step out of bed landing on a plush, inviting rug rather than a cold, hard floor—bliss! At Rest Relax, we believe your bedroom is your ultimate escape, and the right rug transforms your space into a cosy, stylish sanctuary.
Whether you're adding warmth, introducing a pop of colour, or tying your décor together (especially with our stunning Bed Frames), here's your ultimate guide to choosing the perfect rug.
Why Your Rest Relax Bedroom Deserves the Perfect Rug
A rug isn't an afterthought; it’s essential:

-
Unbeatable Comfort: Softness underfoot enhances daily comfort.
-
Warmth & Insulation: Keeps your toes warm, adding cosy insulation.
-
Noise Dampening: Rugs reduce echo, creating a peaceful environment.
-
Style Statement: Inject personality, colour, and texture effortlessly.
-
Define Your Space: Anchor your bed, creating visual harmony in your room.
Finding Your Perfect Match: Key Considerations
Size and Placement – Getting it Just Right:
-
The Golden Rule: Your rug should extend 18-24 inches beyond your bed sides and foot.
-
Under the Bed: Typically placed partially under the bed, starting before your nightstands.
-
Runners: Great for smaller spaces or minimalist bedrooms.
-
Beds with Storage: If you have one of our clever Beds with Storage, ensure the rug placement doesn't block built-in compartments.

Material & Texture – The Feel-Good Factor:
-
Wool: Naturally durable and soft.
-
Cotton: Affordable and fresh, perfect for a lighter feel.
-
Plush Synthetics: Shaggy, soft, stain-resistant—ideal for comfort and practicality.
-
Natural Fibres: Jute or sisal offer rustic texture and durability.
Pile Height – From Sleek to Shaggy:
-
Low Pile: Easy maintenance, great for allergies and furniture placement.
-
Medium Pile: Perfect balance of comfort and practicality.
-
High Pile (Shag): Luxurious softness, ideal for bedrooms craving extra cosiness.
Colour & Pattern – Reflect Your Style:
-
Neutral Tones: Calming creams and greys complement almost any décor.
-
Bold Colours & Patterns: Make a vibrant style statement that harmonises beautifully with your furniture.
