Serve Up Style: 18 Dining Room Rugs That Will Impress Your Guests

Setting up the right dining room rug is like picking out the right shoes for a big event! It has to look amazing, complement the rest of the decor, and withstand a fair share of stomping and spilling!

The dining room is a place where memorable meals are shared, lively conversations unfold and sometimes, a meatball makes a break for it!

So choosing the right dining room rug is no small or easy task! There are so many options: Persian patterns or minimalistic chic, shaggy or flat-weave, stain-resistant or pure wool!

With a little guidance, you’ll find a rug that’s as stylish as it is functional – one that can handle everything from an elegant five-course meal to Taco Tuesday madness!

1. Classic Design

This stunning dining room features a classic design and a beautiful color scheme which the rug ties together!

The rug itself features a depiction of a vase or two faces, depending on how you look at it!

2. Cottagecore Style

Rugs can have a huge impact on the overall style of your space, so it’s wise to choose carefully! This adorable rug features moody colors, yet the flowers on it bring in warmth!

3. Checkered Patterns

From a classic checkered pattern to this exquisite design, checkered rugs always find their way into our hearts!

4. Snakes Under the Table

If you’d like a cool design, opt for something a bit more daring than the regular old rug!

This cream and black rug featuring snakes perfectly fits this modern dining room!

5. Simple Beige

If you’re not quite sure what you’d like to do with the space, beige is a foolproof way to go about it! It’s safe and chic! Plus you can always switch it up!

6. Washable Rug

When picking out rugs, you need to factor in how you’re going to wash them and how easy that task would be! This rug, for example, is easily washable!

On the other hand, rugs made of let’s say, wool, are very hard to wash and dry since they become very heavy and it takes longer for them to dry!

7. Neutral and Gold

Neutrals and gold can never do wrong in our eyes! They’re both very trendy right now but they’re also a classic color combo!

Getting a rug that matches and ties in the whole color scheme is crucial!

8. Round Rug for a Round Dining Table

We often say to mind the color scheme, but you’ll also need to pay close attention to shapes! It’s much better to pair a square with a square, a rectangle with a rectangle, and a circle with a circle!

9. All-White Dining Room

While this picture looks stunning, don’t even think about it if you have small kids! But there’s something about an all-white or all-cream dining room that seems calm and relaxing!

Along with a simple white rug that doesn’t take away from the rest of the space!

10. Color-Blocked Rug

If your space is a bit more on the neutral side, a rug is the perfect way to bring in more color! Pick one that won’t scream at you, but firmly demand attention!

11. Colorful Wool Rug

A colorful wool rug is still a daredevil’s choice when it comes to the dining room! However, it’s also the most durable rug out there! It won’t wear and tear, plus it looks stylish while being practical!

12. Coastal Rug

If you love a nautical theme, this striped rug will definitely hit the spot in your coastal dining room! You’ll feel like you’re eating at a five-star seaside restaurant!

13. Traditional Rug

If you like everything to be just a little bit rustic and worn, then a traditional rug is right up your alley!

These rugs withstand the test of time and they just become better and better with age!

14. Flat Woven Rug

This stunning handmade flat woven rug perfectly fits this mismatched dining room and ties in the new with the old! It also brightens up the space and puts the dining table in focus!

15. Eclectic Dining

Eclectic spaces are often very artsy and all over the space! But there’s always beauty in chaos, so pick a rug that will reflect that beauty and complement it!
