BEST SOURCES FOR INEXPENSIVE INDOOR-OUTDOOR RUGS

If you had a chance to check out my great room makeover reveal post, you might remember that one of the tasks left on the Redesign To Do list for the space is to purchase a new area rug. We’ve also got “replace flooring” as a task on this list, but that massive project has been put on hold for awhile. It occurred to me that there’s really no reason why I can’t begin the fun process of hunting for the perfect area rug now. After all, there’s no reason I can’t just place the area rug on top of our existing stained and tattered carpeting, right?

In fact, I’ve already done this in my home office:

You may be wondering if that area rug is an indoor-outdoor rug…and the answer would be YES! In fact, if you take a little tour of my home, you’ll see that I use indoor-outdoor rugs quite a bit around here:

…and an indoor/outdoor rug in the kitchen.

It’s pretty obvious that I’m smitten with indoor-outdoor rugs. So what’s the attraction?

• They’re extremely durable (perfect for high-traffic areas)
• They’re super easy to clean, which comes in handy when you’ve got kiddos and pets
• They can handle moisture because they are actually made to withstand the outdoor elements
• Typically, they are FAR less expensive than your average indoor area rug

Since I’m such a huge fan of indoor-outdoor rugs, I’ve become quite familiar with the best places to shop for them. Today, I’m excited to share my Go-To source list with you! These online resources have made the cut for my “Best Sources” list because they all offer a wide variety of indoor-outdoor area rugs at affordable price points.

WAYFAIR

When I’m on the hunt for a pretty and inexpensive area rug, Wayfair is the first place that I look. I’ve purchased several of my rugs from Wayfair, and I’ve never been disappointed. They ship orders with lightning speed (I typically receive my order within 1-2 days of placing it!), and the shipping is free with any order over $49. Here are a few of the beauties you can currently score at Wayfair:

POTTERY BARN

Who doesn’t love Pottery Barn? You typically pay top dollar for the quality of home furnishings and accessories offered by this beloved home decor retailer. But I’m often surprised at the deals they have on indoor-outdoor rugs.

Take these examples. You can snatch up several of them in a 5’x8′ size for less than $150!

WORLD MARKET

I’m guessing that “inexpensive indoor-outdoor rugs” isn’t the first thing that comes to mind when you think of World Market. But…I’m telling you, it should be on your list of places to check out if you’re in the market for a new area rug. The rug style in their collection tend to have a more global-eclectic flavor with lots of colorful options. World Market often has a great sale going on as well, so you can save big if you time your purchase right.

Here are some examples of what you might find at World Market:

PIER 1

Pier 1 is an oldie but a goody when it comes to home decor sourcing (Fun fact: I actually worked in as a Pier 1 associated back during my college days!). Although their selection of indoor-outdoor area rugs is often limited when you visit their stores, you’ll find a really great selection on their website. More often than not, your rug order will meet the minimum requirement for free shipping too!

Here are some options at Pier 1 that I’m currently crushing on:

HOME DECORATORS

If you’ve never spent any time shopping on Home Decorators, go grab yourself a cup of coffee, put your feet up, and prepare to be wowed. They offer some truly one-of-a-kind indoor-outdoor area rugs that you won’t find anywhere else. Just take a look at some of these options:

ONE KINGS LANE

Holy Cannoli, do I love One Kings Lane! I can always count on finding unique home decor at great prices when I visit this site. One word of caution…they typically have limited quantities of each item, so if you find something you HEART, you better grab it.

Here are just a few of the gorgeous indoor-outdoor area rugs I spotted on a recent visit to the One Kings Lane website:

So there you have it! Have I convinced you that indoor-outdoor area rugs are where it’s at when it comes to redecorating? I better get cracking on finding that perfect rug for our great room. Exciting 🙂
