Avoid These Rug Placement Mistakes

I have a rug rule. First, I’m going to tell you what my rule is and then I hope that you will tell me whether you agree or even submit your own rug rules below.

When you’re doing a rug, never bisect a doorway. There’s a sub-clause to that rule which is I don’t ever want to see a corner in a doorway.

Yet another sub-clause? I don’t ever want to have a corner in a walkway. I don’t like walking across corners of rugs. You either have a clear walkway or you have carpet completely covering that area.

There’s something about walking across a corner that bothers me!
