Animal Print Rug - Where and Why

Take a moment and think about whether or not you have ever seen a animal print rug, and if you can answer in the affirmative try and qualify that answer with your honest opinion of how nice it looked. While these types of rug are to everyone's taste, there are some people who have a lot of affection for them and so any rug which some form of animal print on it will purchase it without a second thought. While these people are more than content to decorate their entire home with animal print rugs in all shapes and sizes, for others, they are not quite so keen to have THAT many of these rugs in their home. An off cited reason for this is that the homeowner is concerned that their home will end up looking rather drab and bland as everything looks the same due to the lack of imagination or difference. While such concerns are understandable they are unfounded, because these animal print rugs are very unique and diverse, and the claim that "no two are the same" is entirely true!

You may find it of some use to give some serious consideration as to actual reasons for you wanting to purchase one of these rugs, by far, the most commonly cited question is that the purchasers are avid animal lovers and can't get enough of them. Many people are uncomfortable with this, questioning the apparent contradiction and seemingly outright hypocrisy of "love for animals" and the active support of purchasing a rug that is made from their pelts. This is a fallacy, as animal print rugs are synthetic material which feature printed animal shapes, and so are not made from animals!  If this was a concern for you, and was deterring you from purchasing one of these rugs then hopefully your mind is now at ease.

Of course, it should also be noted that these animal print rugs are very fun and attractive art! There is a common (mis)conception that all rugs are drab, dull and tedious affairs, utterly devoid of any color, vibrancy or "charisma". Animal print rugs have all of those three things in spades.

One of the great aspects of animal print rugs is that they manage to combine (rather effectively it should be noted) function and form in a very competent balance indeed and so while they will fulfill the practical requirements (warmth and protection for your flooring) they will also add personality to the room. Given how unique and engaging they are, you can be rest assured that they will be an attractive feature for the room, and a real conversation starter!

A common concern raised by homeowners is that they do not have any idea as to where their newly acquired carpet would look best in, in reality, the answer is: anywhere you so choose! It really is entirely up to you where the rug will be placed, and it is only you who can actually determine if it suits the "feel" of a particular room.
