@maeproperinteriors WELL FOUND | AREA RUGS
The kind of piece that quietly sets the tone for an entire room.
This week’s Well Found is all about area rugs, with a collection of 8x10s under $600 that feel far more considered than their price point. Think warm wool, subtle pattern, vintage inspired details, and a little color mixed in.
Because finding an affordable rug is easy. Finding one that actually looks good is another story.

Transcript
Sourcing area rugs that are affordable that actually look good can take some time. Welcome to my well found series where every week I'm sharing the pieces that caught my eye. This week is all about area rugs, and I found some really good eight by 10 options all under $600. Starting with one of my favorites and one that I actually have in my own home is this wool rug by Nate Berkus. I'd style this one in a more contemporary or transitional space paired with medium to dark woods and earthy neutrals. Next is this handwoven rug that would be such a fun way to bring in a little color into an entryway. And lastly, this rug from McGee and Co. It's great for higher traffic areas such as a living room or a dining room, and the mix of colors make it really easy to work into an existing space. I especially love the vintage influence on this one. I source several more options, so comment rugs and I'll send them your way.
