Answer

Layering rugs in small fall spaces involves placing a smaller vintage rug—such as six by nine feet—over a larger neutral base like an eight by ten jute rug. This adds texture, warmth, and character without the need for repainting or major changes. The smaller rug’s patterns or colors bring visual interest while the base rug grounds the space naturally. Position rugs to define seating areas or walkways and ensure edges align neatly. This technique delivers an effortless, cozy feel that aligns perfectly with 2025’s nature-inspired and vintage fall decor trends.
