10 Cheap Rugs For Your Space That Don’t Sacrifice Style Or Quality
Cheap rugs should of course be inexpensive, but unfortunately that reduction in price can mean that the rug of your dreams is actually scratchy, sheds a lot, or isn’t quite the style you were hoping for. A low price point doesn’t have to mean you sacrifice style or quality though, which is why you should check out these ten cheap rugs that will help make your space feel like home without looking or feeling any less comfortable. Just remember that you’ll be looking at a price point between $50 and $200- depending on the size of the rug you need- for a rug with style, decent quality, and that will ship to your home.
1. This Geometric Area Rug
Sleek and simple, this rug is great for high traffic areas that need to feel a bit more like home. There is no shag on this rug, so you won’t have to worry about crumbs getting stuck in it or stains sinking in so you can never get them out. A nice geometric design will keep your space looking modern, and add some visual interest to your straightforward, unfussy design concept.

For people who don’t really like to lay on the ground and prefer a more streamlined look, this thin jute rug will add just the right amount of comfort. I am in love with the ability to choose a color for this natural fiber rug, as tan can be a bit of a bland color at times.

5. This Beautiful Blue Moroccan Rug
A bright blue and crisp white combo in a Moroccan style rug looks a bit more contemporary than rustic earth tones or bright, classic reds.

6. This Hand-Woven Geometric Neutral
Cheap rugs can absolutely be hand-woven and cotton. This certainly isn’t the cheapest rug on the list, but it is a great deal. Neutral white and gray tones become interesting with a geometric pattern bringing them to life. The beauty of this rug isn’t just in the contrast of the pattern and the neutrality of the color, but the versatility that these things provide. This rug can easily transition from bohemian, to urban, to modern, to Scandinavian, to any number of design aesthetics.

7. This Very Modern Abstract Rug
Abstract rugs really shine with lots of natural light, lighter tones of wood, and plenty of neutral colors. This style of rug feels very urban to me, but I can also see it thriving in a trendy Californian chic design. No matter how you choose to incorporate this abstract piece into your home, I would try keeping the pieces around it a bit more simplistic so as not to overpower this little explosion of color. Cheap rugs can easily look very expensive if you dress them up right.

8. This Cozy Sheepskin Runner
Perfect for someone who wants just a little bit of warmth under their feet, runners are cheap rugs that will accent a space without filling up the whole room. Place this gorgeous runner near a chair, or down a cold hallway and enjoy the cozy cabin vibes! Try all sorts of different sizes to suit your needs, but beware of the larger price tags on the larger styles. A runner is a great way to skirt around this!

In the most affordable size of 3′ x 5′, this hand-braided wool area rug will add an amazing texture while maintaining durability and style.
