How to Do I Choose A Rug for My Dining Table?
Which rug is the best for my dining table?! To answer this question, you must keep a few things in mind. The shape of your table dictates the shape of your rug. Therefore, square or circle rugs are best for a circle or square tables, but they can be more difficult to find in large sizes. Speaking of size - your rug should be large enough so that when your guests have scooted their chairs all the way out they are still on the rug with a couple of inches to spare. You don't want your guests taking a spill backwards! Oh and one last things, for all that is good design in the world, please think twice before putting a circle rug under an oval or rectangular table.
