Rug size for a living room—help! 🏡

[syrdrs_]

Hey everyone! I'm unsure about what size rug to get for my living room. Should it fit under all the furniture, or just the coffee table? What's the rule of thumb?

Hey! Generally, you wanna go big enough so all your furniture at least touches the rug, like a big hug for your living space. If you can, try to have the front legs of all the pieces on it for a cozy look. 🛋️✨

Sure thing! Generally, a good rule is to get a rug that fits under the front legs of your sofa and chairs, tying the room together without covering the whole floor. 🛋️ It helps define the space while keeping it cozy!

Hey! 🖐️ For a living room rug, a good rule of thumb is to have it big enough to fit under all the main furniture pieces or at least the front legs of the furniture. 🛋️📏 It makes the space feel cohesive and pulled together. If in doubt, go a bit larger—better to have too much rug than too little! 😄👌

A good rule of thumb is to choose a rug that allows the front legs of your furniture to sit on it, leaving 12-18 inches of floor exposed around the edges. For a more cohesive look, try to have all furniture on the rug or just the coffee table if the space is tight.
