Just got the area rug that i like but i am wondering about the size.
Is 5x8 rug too small.
The right sized area rug will bring warmth and balance to the room creating the perfect finishing touch.
The rug is 5x8.
A rug that is too small for your space can cause the room to feel uninviting.
Here are a bunch of pretty rooms that they ve tried to convince us have big enough rugs.
It might be worth buying the higher end rug in a 5 8 and layering it over a much less expensive 8 10 neutral fiber rug.

The salesperson thought 8x10 would be too big in the room but this feels too small.
A 5x8 rug can go in front of your sofa with no furniture going on it but then larger sized rugs are best practiced to have the front legs of your furniture on the rug.
The size of an area rug can dramatically alter the room s overall effect.
Almost any rug that feels just a bit too small can be stretched into service with a layer beneath that s at least a bit larger.
Or if a 5x8 is actually too small for my space.
A rug in a living room should really ground the whole seating around it tells everyone that this is where the conversation is this is the focal point of the room and a too small rug makes it feel disjointed and really just cheapens everything.
So i wondering if my eyes were just used to the bigger coverage.
