Bathroom Rugs - The Centrepiece Of Your Room

by NIALL ROCHE

No modern bathroom is truly complete without a bathroom rug of some kind. These rugs are available in a wide variety of shapes, sizes and styles - there's something for everybodys taste out there. From your contemporary round bathroom rug to big shaggy bathroom rugs you're spoiled for choice when shopping online. Another nice thing about a rug like this is that it allows you to update the bathroom itself by just changing the rug and some of the basic accents and accessories in the bathroom - you don't always need to redecorate the entire room.

This can obviously save you a lot of money down the line as you won't need to totally redecorate your bathroom to give it a fresh look and feel each time you want to change it up a bit. Visualize your bathroom as it currently is and then change it a bit by changing the bath rug for a new style or color. Visualize how this can and will change your bathroom. Isn't it amazing how such a small change can make such a big difference to the entire room?

Bathroom rugs are popular for a lot of reasons but the main one is safety - their original purpose was to stop people from slipping on a wet or dramp floor after bathing or showering. The bathrug eliminates this fear because it gives the bather a stable and comfortable surface to dry themselves on. Bath rugs are really useful in a busy house with kids where you'll have the shower in use for hours at a time. If you have a very large bathroom rug then it can span that distance between the shower and the sink so you can move from showering to brushing your teeth and shaving in safety too!

These days bathroom rugs have moved beyond mere function. They obviously do still serve a purpose in terms of providing a safe surface to stand on after showering or bathing. It's just that they've also become a very real and very common bathroom accessory and are now normally integral in the design or remodelling of any bathroom; in much the same way that carpets or throw rugs are in any other room. Bathrooms are now becoming as much a statement of a persons individual style as they are a functional room that all humans need. In a way your bath rug will form the centerpiece of the room and will attract a lot of attention from visitors and say a lot about your taste and style.

Some people worry about being able to find the perfect rug.... don't worry it does exist and will complement your bathroom completely. It doesn't matter what style or pattern you're looking for you'll be able to find a match for it in at least one of the online stores and at a great price too. Some of my own personal favourites are dolphin designs (how can you not like dolphins?) and the new wooden duckboard mats that would be ideal for a more rustic bathroom design.

Your bath rug gives you a real chance to add a major dash of your own personality to your bathroom - make the most of this opportunity!
