Shag Area Rugs

Shag rugs can make your living room, bedroom, or even coffee area look cozy and appealing.

These rugs are thicker and softer than regular rugs — the kind that kids and pets love to lay down on and feel the fibers rub against their skin.

A shag rug is a perfect addition to any room in your house that needs some cozying up! And at Luxe Weavers, you get shag rugs that fit with traditional and modern homes alike, and at affordable factory-direct prices!

Where can I place my shag rug?

Shag area rugs look great at the center of a living room, drawing the attention of guests to it. You can place it right in front of your sofa and it becomes a foot warmer during the winter.

Another idea is to put your shag rug at the corner of a room (such as by a window) to create a comfortable reading nook. It’s extremely comfortable when you relax on it while drinking a cup of coffee!

What size shag rug should I get?

At Luxe Weavers, you can get shag rugs in 3 sizes: 2 x 3, 5 x 7, and 6 x 9 feet.

You should get a size that won’t overwhelm the area you plan to place the rug. Looking for a rug for a reading nook? Measure the area to leave room around the rug instead of having it override the skirting boards.

Same thing for the living room: it’s better to leave room between the sofa and the rug instead of having it go under the couch. It not only looks nicer but also makes it easier to clean.

Should I go for a patterned or plain shag rug?

A patterned rug will become the center of attention in the room you place it in. So if your living room, bedroom, or even games room is looking well… plain — a patterned rug will dazzle it up!

Meanwhile, if you’re looking for the fuzzy but want to remain low-key in your decoration (or don’t want the rug to steal all the limelight from your other decor), a plain shag rug is what you need.

History of Shag Rugs

Did you know that shag rugs date back to Ancient Greece?

Back in the times of Alexander the Great, palaces were decorated with flokati rugs weaved with goat hair.

The fluffy rugs decorated the large palace rooms and warmed them up in a time before central heating existed.
