Finding a good rug can get expensive fast, so that’s why it’s definitely worth it to wait for a big sale weekend to make the splurge. With the Labor Day weekend holiday, there were tons of opportunities to snag the rug you love for way less, just in time for a little autumn refresh. And the good news is that many of those deals are still running right now! Whether you love the boho vibe or like to keep things traditional, there’s a rug for you.

Kista Rug

West Elm can get pricey, but their rug selection is full of deals—especially during a sale. This striped rug is handcrafted from durable New Zealand wool and made in a Fair Trade facility, and comes in four larger sizes. Despite having a bit of an eye-catching motif, this rug is super versatile, combining elements of Scandi and contemporary style.

Gianna Recycled Yarn Kilim Indoor/Outdoor Rug

Pottery Barn has a huge range of rugs, including a whole section of popular (and sometimes hard to find) kilim options. This multi-colored find looks like an authentic vintage rug, but it’s actually made of fibers from recycled water bottles in a Fair Trade facility. It comes in seven sizes, and (best part) it works both indoors and out.

Ovid Tangerine Area Rug

It’s no secret that we (along with everyone else) love this rug. What makes it so good is the traditional design paired with the modern tangerine and teal colors—it feels fresh and different despite the classic style. Plus, it’s surprisingly versatile, and will look just as good in a traditional space as it will in a more eclectic home.
