The Best Dining Room Rug

I absolutely love our new dining room rug. It’s the perfect color, size and it’s all wool. It’s from Loloi Rugs!

The Best Farmhouse Dining Room Rug

I have been looking for a new dining room rug for a while. I had something specific in mind. I wanted wool. I wanted a hooked rug. And I wanted the colors off-white, tan, grey, pink, and brown.

Loloi Dining Room Rug

I was approached by Loloi Rugs and I couldn’t believe it when I found this rug. #sponsored.

It’s from their Norabel Collection and it’s in Ivory/Blush.

Here is a close up of our rug. Isn’t it gorgeous?

It looks perfect with our floors. It looks great with our unique painted walls. And it matches all of the decor I have stored in our butler’s pantry. Hah!

I took this photo of our table and the rug underneath. Isn’t it incredible how well it looks?

The Best Farmhouse Dining Room Rug Colors

There are so many colors in this Loloi rug that it would match just about any table setting. I had so much fun setting the table based on the color of the rug!

I pulled out some of my glassware. The cranberry glass is vintage. But the tall flutes with the etching are from Anthropologie. They were one of my Christmas presents. And I love them!

Frequently Asked Questions

Are wool rugs better?

Wool rugs are more natural and last a lot longer than polypropylene carpet. Wool rugs are flame resistant, while the chemicals in synthetic rugs might make them highly flammable. I actually don’t like the smell of synthetic rugs. Polypropylene rugs are cheaper but they are not good for the environment.

Are wool rugs worth the money?

Wool is a strong and natural fiber and wool rugs typically are a bit more expensive. Keep in mind that wool rugs last for decades, are highly durable, and keep their color and pattern over time. A rug made of wool will typically be softer and more plush.

How do you clean a wool rug?

Shake out the rug and vacuum it. Make your own cleaning solution with one bucket of cold water and 2 TBL of Woolite. Use a sponge to swab the rug with cleaning solution. Use another sponge with water to rinse the rug. Let dry.

  3. Ohhh it’s so pretty, lovely, & classic I love it!
    I’ve been looking for a rug for my Sophie’s room (she’s 6) I’ll have to check some of these rugs out.

  4. Very pretty rug, looks nice in your dining room. Love it for spring and summer and nice contrast with the floors and table, adding light. We had all of our main floors sanded and bleached last year. Love them and have started leaning towards a more Swedish look in my old age. I only have rugs in front of sofas, which is four rooms, but the kitchen, dining and master bedroom are bare and clean looking. Finally found a textured ivory 9×12 wool rug for the family room after looking for months.

    1. Thank you Jillian for reaching out with your kind comments. Your home sounds beautiful! I hope that you join me here tomorrow for Sunday Morning Coffee!

      1. Family room, a front sitting room (loveseat) which some would use for an office but hubby put his in the basement, which is a walkout basement with windows and doors. Another family room in basement (two couches) and a little sitting room upstairs where my husband likes to sit in the mornings. It has a loveseat rather than a couch. Ha Ha! Apparently we sit around a lot. 🙂

  5. It’s beautiful Leslie! The pattern and texture reminds me of mosaic tile you would see in old Rome or Greece. 💕

    1. Linda, that is a beautiful description. I really do just stop and stare at it, it is so pretty! Thank you for your comment. I hope that you join me here tomorrow for Sunday Morning Coffee!

  6. Absolutely gorgeous! I was wondering why you wanted wool and then found your answer in the post. I love wool sweaters, mittens and blankets in Michigan because of the insulation of it but also shocking ability to clean easy. A wool rug in my house would make so much sense! I’ll ha e to prioritize that!

  8. Lovely colors!. Do you have tips for placing large rugs over carpet? I have tried on dining room in the past and the table sunk into the rug and distorted it

  9. What a beautiful rug Leslie. It looks lovely and perfect in a classic home like yours or in a French chateau. That’s what I call getting your moneys worth.

    1. Hi Tammy, the color in my dining room is a bit unique because it’s a bit of a chameleon. Depending on what time of day and the light in the room, it looks different colors! Thank you for asking. Have a great day!
