    Question! Should I get a smaller rug for a twin size bed then?

  4. Joanna Crews on February 7, 2022 at 10:20 pm

    You should have an affiliate link: Your random vid was recommended. I watched. You highly recommended a random rug store. I went and bought a rug.

  5. D S on February 7, 2022 at 10:21 pm

    What size is the silver florid rug? That’s the one I’m eyeing. I didn’t really want blue though

  6. Nancy Valentine on February 7, 2022 at 10:23 pm

    Can you please tell me where your couch is from and name if you know it. It’s exactly what I’ve been looking for. Love it!

  7. Amanda Fiorina on February 7, 2022 at 10:25 pm

    I love your interior decorating on a budget videos

  8. zisforzoo16 on February 7, 2022 at 10:25 pm

    God bless YouTube…you can find literally anything I’m going to be moving out soon and I’m looking to decorate my place!

    Hopefully no one has gone out and bought an 8’x10′ rug for their queen bed and expected it to match the proportions in the image shared in this video (which is more representative of a 5.5’x7′ rug given that most queen bed frames are under 7.5′ long and about 5.5′ wide, and most bedside tables are 15" to 17" deep).

    When spaced a foot or more away from your bedside tables as recommended, an 8’x10′ rug would protrude at least 36" past the foot of the bed and 27" out to each side.

    Personally, I would recommend 6’x9′ rug for a smaller bedroom which would give you about 21" of rug on each side of the bed and 12" of rug at the foot of the bed if the rug was spaced just 1′ from your bedside tables. You could definitely go with an 8’x10′ rug in a larger bedroom, but don’t expect the proportions to look anything like example shared in this video!

    Hi not sure if you’ll read this comment a month halter, but wondering if the first off white vintage rug has grey and cognac colors or if theyre more of a beige and blue? Or if you wouldn’t mind recommending which one of all of them would go with grey and cognac? Trying to find a rug. It’s soo difficult. TFS❣️

  12. Ananya on February 7, 2022 at 10:34 pm

    Hi love your vids have been super helpful during my move 🙂 I have a question – what should be the size of the cowhide rug with respect to the jute rug when layering?

  13. Brent.Investing on February 7, 2022 at 10:34 pm

    Random Vid recommended after wife says she wants a new rug….. dang it youtube you got me! (She sent me photo’s from Costco too).
    She made me sell my dark rug we bought in Japan cause it didn’t match the new house lighter colors, /sigh… interesting video Sophia!

    hello. Love the video!!! I’m a new blogger. I’m not sure what is the proper way to ask: is it okay to share your video on a blog post, and of course, give you credit with a link to this video?

  15. Halle Morse on February 7, 2022 at 10:45 pm

    Hi there – I’ve enjoyed watching your videos. I’m on the verge of purchasing the Silver Florid Dreams rug (I think it looks beautiful in your space). Can you explain what you mean by “it looks a little more ruggish”? I’m not following that comment and would appreciate your take on the different in rug materials. Thank you!!

    Do I need to use a rug pad even when the area rug will be over carpet?

  21. KathyMacgregor1 on February 7, 2022 at 10:50 pm

    Thank you. I’m searching for a mute rug to layer and love the color of the one in your living room. Do you have a link to that one? Thanks

  22. Abigail Chamberlain on February 7, 2022 at 10:51 pm

    Was literally scrolling through rugs online when this popped up as a notification on my phone. The timing couldn’t be better. You’re an angel 😘

  23. Reel1 on February 7, 2022 at 10:51 pm

    1AM and I’m here looking up rug videos lol. Great style! Video was really well produced too, thanks.

  24. Bhavika Sicka on February 7, 2022 at 10:51 pm

    I’m from West Bengal, India. Jute is very, very cheap (affordable) I come from. Also, why are you promoting cow hide rugs instead of vegan rugs? It’s the 21st century, girl. Animals don’t need to die for your vanity.

  25. Paulina Carter on February 7, 2022 at 10:52 pm

    Cream rug with blue and orange looks amazing 👌🏽 good choice!
