Cowhide Rugs

Rugs are a topic I've been meaning to write about for some time now. In fact, my inspiration folder is brimming with so many rug finds that I've decided to break it down, starting today with cowhide rugs.  If you've seen my interior boards on Pinterest you will have picked up on my love of these.

Cowhides have a beautiful look and feel. I wouldn't hesitate to use them in any style of interior decor whether classic or contemporary. Designed to last, their timeless beauty will inject class and elegance into any room of your home and that's what I thought I'd share with you today.

Living Room

In living areas cowhide rugs make a stunning centrepiece. As well as different animal print options, cowhides now come in a range of colours, metallics and stencilled prints. I'm lusting after the gold speckled one in the first image below.

Dining Room

Cowhide rugs look great placed beneath a dining table. Durable and easy to clean they are a practical option as well.

Bedroom 

Perfect for bedrooms, this is where I've placed my first cowhide rug at home. It's only small, but it's a start. I'm hoping that one day I'll have a lot more! Lovely and soft underfoot, they look super stylish on wooden floors.

An alternative to carpet, cowhide rugs not only look amazing in kidsooms they provide warmth and cosiness for your little ones.
