Don't Think Too Small

Source: Decorating Dos and Don'ts - Good House Keeping
The "flying carpet" look of an area rug that "floats" in a room with its edges
far from the furniture is definitely not decor magic. Steer clear of floor
coverings that are too small to extend under both sides of a seating
arrangement, or beneath opposing or adjoining pieces of furniture.

Choosing the right size is important. If you need assitance, contact us.

Today's Shows: Top 10 Decorating Mistakes

Source: How to fix the top 10 decorating mistakes - Home & Garden - MSNBC.com

The Today Show's top 10 decorating mistakes featured "Rug too small for the room" as number 3 on the list.
"Mistake: Nothing adds more comfort and warmth, or defines a space, quite like a rug, and rugs are a great opportunity to bring in a strong decorative element, like pattern or color. However, a rug that is too small does just the opposite — it calls
attention to the fact that your floors are mostly bare and cold, and appears like a small raft in the middle of a pool A small rug leaves one yearning for more and ends up looking skimpy, like a skirt that is too short.
Solution: Rugs should be large enough that either all of the furniture should sit on top of the rug, or all of the furniture should frame the rug and sit just off of it. Before buying a rug, measure the dimensions of your room and make sure that the rug is large enough that your furniture arrangement can fit easily (without crowding) on top or frame the rug graciously"
While choosing your rug, remember that size is one of the most important factors to consider. We have included a Choosing Rug Size section at our site, if you need additionally resources.
