Rug shopping

I have taken too many pictures of my front room.
I have shopped online for rugs for too much time.
I have even gone to a few local stores (though not many due to *the foot*)

I cannot pick a rug.

First, buying a rug online is a big commitment! You don't really know what the color is. Sure it looks ok online but what about IRL?  And then if you don't like it...what? You have to ship it back?? That sounds awful. And expensive.

I'm not looking at high end rugs. I just don't have the cash for that. So it's not like I'm buying something that I expect to have forever. But still, spending up to $300 for something is a big deal in my world.

I have found that some websites allow you to sort of digitally put the rug in your space.  I like this feature a lot.  But I still just don't know what to get.  I'm not super rushed. I'm ok with waiting for the right  rug.  I'm just a little worried that I will never find it.

So if anyone reading this wants to help me out, here are some pictures of rugs in the space from different websites. Help!

First, here's a closeup of my curtain fabric:

I like this rug but haven't found a website that lets me see it "in the room"
I'm also considering this one for the entryway, which is connected to the living room, so it needs to have similar colors and go well with the buffet in the entryway.


Here's the entryway:

Also, I know I need artwork and stuff but seems like I should pick the rug first? Right?
I really don't know what I'm doing...

  1. I like #3 best. It has bold or darker color as boarder close to the edge and colors That are complimentary with your curtains and other colirs of your room. Aunt Mollie

  2. I agree rug 3 looks the best. I like the rug not pictured in the room but I think the bolder color in rug 3 does the most for the space.
