Purple Runner Rugs

Did you know that purple is seen as the safest interior design color? That's right, which is why it's hard to go wrong with one of these beautiful purple runner rugs.

Why A Purple Rug Runner?

Our luxurious purple runner rugs come in all sizes, patterns, and shades, making them versatile enough for any decor. Purple is known as one of the safest design colors because it goes with almost anything but instantly gives a room that expert feeling.

If you're looking for inspiration, we've outlined a few of the many ways an interior decorator might use one of these rugs:

• A plum runner rug in a home that has grey decor with orange and brown accents.
• A lavender runner rug in a chic apartment, padding the entryway hall to protect the floor.
• A pair of purple hall runner rugs in an L-shaped kitchen to bring bright color to the room.

These rugs can, of course, be used in several other design settings, but these ideas should be enough to get you started.

A Closer Look At Purple Runner Rugs

Interior decorators like to use purple runner rugs in hallways, entryways, kitchens, and other footpaths to protect the floor while brightening the decor. While purple is a natural color to decorate with, it stands out and can set the mood for an entire house.

In Feng Shui and color psychology, purple is associated with:

• Meditation
• Healing
• Calmness
• Restoration
• Marriage
• Love
• Abundance
• Wealth
• Relaxation
• Creativity

These associations make purple rugs great for almost any area of your home. For example, why not bring marriage and love energy into your bedroom? Abundance and wealth to your office? Creativity and relaxation to your living room? With a runner rug, you can set the mood for the whole house, one walkway at a time.

Is A Purple Runner Rug Right For Me?

Use the color wheel to make sure purple can fit with your existing decor colors. Think about different shades and tones to find a purple that complements your home's design--you can always search for online photos for inspiration. Because runner rugs usually sit in entryways and hallways, they need to go with everything in the house, not just one room.

The following tips will help you find the right rug for your space:

• Measure carefully. Runners shouldn't come closer than 6 to 12 inches to your wall. If your runner is too big, it'll look cramped. Likewise, though, if your rug is small compared to your space, it can make your area look awkward.
• Pick a material. Will your runner be in a high-traffic area exposed to dirt and moisture (like the entryway)? If so, you'll want a more durable material that can stand up to traffic and cleaning.
• Select a thickness. If your rug will sit under where a door swings, measure the space between your door and the floor. This measurement will tell you how thick your rug can be.

Choosing The Perfect Purple Rug Runner

Use the filters to look for rugs in your desired size, material, and thickness to help you sort through the hundreds of results. And don't forget a pad to prevent slipping and add cushion to your floor.
