Want to spruce up your outdoor room, patio, or deck? An outdoor rug just may be the answer. Outdoor rugs made of synthetic fibers like polypropylene, also known as olefin, are extremely strong and weather resistant. They are also resistant to stains, mildew, and fading, making them a practical choice for any outdoor space. Outdoor rugs give a softer, more comfortable indoor feel to any outdoor area.
Today’s outdoor rugs are really beautiful, too, boasting decorative borders and patterns that rival any indoor rug. In fact, many people choose to use outdoor rugs in their indoor spaces because of their durability and visual appeal. Use a smaller rug as a welcome mat and a larger one underneath the dining room table to define the space. Outdoor rugs are ideal for busy entry ways, hallways, kitchens, and living areas, too. Cleaning an outdoor rug is a breeze. Spray the rug with a hose and allow it to air dry. Tough stains require only a mild detergent and warm water for cleaning.
Whether used in outdoor or indoor spaces, an outdoor rug can significantly improve appearances as well as invite more frequent use.
I love these outdoor rugs! I bought a smaller one at first to use in my entry way, and I had to get one for the kitchen, too, for under the dining table. I don’t mind it so much now when my little ones drop crumbs and spill juice — cleaning these things is so easy!
