This West Elm Decor Gem Can Handle Rain, Heat, and Everything in Between
There’s no better time to decorate your outdoor space than the summer. The warmer temperatures signal it’s time to dust off the patio set and perhaps add a few new pieces to your collection — more specifically, a gorgeous outdoor rug. Lucky for you, I found the perfect one that can be used year-round: the Yin-Yang Outdoor Performance Rug from West Elm.
What Is the Yin-Yang Outdoor Performance Rug?
While the modern, chic outdoor rug is especially great for hosting during the summer, it works all year round, withstanding even the toughest of elements from rain to snow. This is thanks to its weather-resistant polyester yarns, which not only make the rug durable, but also easy to clean (a must in my book).
Whether you’re enjoying your outdoor space by curling up with a good book or hosting neighbors for a backyard cookout, or you simply just want to make the space feel a bit cozier, this rug is sure to complement any decor style. The stylish rug is available in four different sizes — 5’x8’, 6’x’9’, 8’x10’, and 9’x’12 — and ranges from $299 to $799.
Each one is hand-woven in India, which adds an organic look and means each one is unique. It also adds visual interest to the neutral gray, cream, and tan colorway. The design is modern and sleek, but not so trendy that it will look outdated in a year. And although it’s listed as an outdoor rug, it would look great inside as well — and its super-soft polyester yarn is easy to clean, which is great if you have pets, children, or are spill-prone (or all three!).
This rug is the perfect year-round piece that can spice up and add flair to anyone’s outdoor space. I would style it with an outdoor couch and chair set, as well as an outdoor table, complete with pillows to add extra coziness.
