Medium Area Rugs

What color rug would go best in my room?

My dad and I are redoing my room because he is in the process of making his house look nicer. Previously, my room had pink walls and disgusting carpet from when my sister lived there. Painted the walls a neutral green, and the wood floor is a light-medium brown color. My shades and couch are a neutral brown color. I'm looking to get an area rug but am not sure how to match it to the rest of my room.

My couch and drapes are roughly this color: http://www.homedepot.com/Browns-Tans/Paint-Interior-Paint-Stain-Paint-Samples/h_d1/N-5yc1vZ1xi3Zbp6yZ1z13zm9/R-202179100/h_d2/ProductDisplay?langId=-1&storeId=10051&catalogId=10053

If it were my room, I'd go with a dark forest green rug. Then I'd have some forest green throw pillows around and maybe, if you are clever, sew a dark forest green ribbon around the edges of your curtains. Bring the paint swatch of your walls with you and make sure the two greens look good together before you buy a rug.

Have fun!

Turnout Rug Horse Safety Alternative

Every horse owner knows what a wonderful animal a horse is. Of course, tying it down and restricting its movements during rain and winter is not something that any horse owner likes. On the other hand, there is the aspect of protecting the animal too. A good solution to this predicament is the turnout rug. These protect the horse so that it can roam out in the open in all seasons.

These turnout rugs can be classified into three categories based on their weights. The heavy weight rugs have over 300 grams of filling that keeps the horse nice and warm in biting cold conditions. The lightweight rugs have up to 150 grams of filling and are more to protect from rain with some warmth. The medium weight rugs are in between for wet but not so cold conditions. You can pick one of these depending how the local weather changes in your area.

If you live up north where you get everything from rains to real cold and dark winters, you would need different set of rugs for each season. This is not practical as you really cannot invest in multiple rugs. An good alternative in that case is to purchase under rugs. These are not as expensive as your turnout rugs and when used with a lightweight rug can serve as a heavyweight rug too. Just add as many layers of these under rugs are your feel necessary and cover them with a lightweight rug.

The important thing in any rug is its waterproof feature and comfort. All rugs tend to have long lasting water proof coating, so you really do not have to re coat the rug every year. The comfort part is really important. Some of the rugs are designed in parts to allow maximum freedom for the horse to move. Some others use frills to provide that extra space.

If you are using multi piece models, you need to wrap the neck and hind quarters of the horse with separate pieces. In that case, take special care that the main large part of the rug covers all the parts properly. There should be no gaps between the three pieces, else the entire purpose of the rug is defeated.

Other rugs tend to be a single unit to avoid gaps in the design. In such case, you must ensure that the rug is large enough to allow free movement for the horse and at the same time not too loose. The rug must cover the belly completely.

One of the problems with using such rugs is that the horse may graze near the fence and branches which can tear the rug. The modern, good quality rugs that are rip resistant and you must always prefer these. These will ensure that they serve you well are deliver good value for money.

All in all, the turnout rug is a real boon to the horse owners. They can protect the animal in rough weather and not restrain it. If picked properly, these rugs can serve you for years with minimum problems and great comfort to the horse.
