I’m starting to round up some of my most frequently asked questions. First, rugs size.

Alternatively - before that I had just used one small rug on the side, which is a great option to save money too since this rug is a lot smaller.
We also had too narrow of a room and could not fit much of a rug. We ran the rug long ways and used a pretty small rug because the room was so narrow.
