Need to fill a large room? Go for a spacious, colorful option like the Bodrum Area Rug, available in several sizes, including a beauty that’s 6 feet, 7 inches by 9 feet. Prefer something smaller? Try a 2-by-3-foot rectangle Ringwood Area Rug (made in Turkey) instead. You’ll easily match decor with at least one or two colors in the rug. Boutique Rugs offers free shipping on all orders and easy returns within 30 days of purchase.

Wayfair Rugs

Aside from a wealth of outdoor furniture, Wayfair has a healthy rug assortment that includes area rugs; bath, kitchen, and stair tread rugs; hallway runners; doormats; outdoor rugs; and youth rugs. When you’re ready to begin browsing the site, you’ll be able to shop by categories like:

Once you’ve made your choices, Wayfair offers additional pieces, like non-slip rug pads for placing underneath rugs on hardwood or other slippery surfaces. Be sure to check for sales, too.

Ruggable

If you’re susceptible to spills, a washable kitchen rug might be the perfect choice for you. Ruggable prides itself on stain-resistant, water-resistant, machine-washable rugs, available in just about every style, color, size, and pattern you could want. These will easily match bedding or other colors or styles you’re combining, too. You’ll be dazzled by their categories, which include:

There’s a trick to using Ruggable Rugs, which is explained here. It’s super easy, though, so no worries! Basically, the rug cover and non-slip rug pad fit together until it’s time to wash. Then, they easily come apart. Here’s a video demo.

Willaby

Perfect for a household with littles, Willaby’s hand-loomed, machine-washable rugs are all-natural, modern, and non-toxic. Crafted by hand by an Amish family, Willaby rugs are made without the use of electricity, and no shred of fabric is wasted.

With the Willaby rug collection, you’ll get soft, subtle, natural colors like snow, goldenrod, root, citrine, sea, moon, and multi-stripe, and you’ll likely find these to be the softest rugs you’ve touched.

Choose from small, medium, runner, and area rug sizes (check the site for detailed sizes), and consider buying a non-slip pad to go underneath your rug (sold separately). All rugs are 3/8-inch thick. While you can machine-wash these rugs (on the delicate cycle, please), we recommend letting them air-dry rather than machine-drying them. Tumble drying on low is acceptable if you must.

When you order, there’s a standard three-week wait time. Not sure if you’re ready to order? Email them to request a fabric swatch of your preferred color.

Hook & Loom

Earth-friendly Hook & Loom rugs use no dyes, no chemicals, and no latex in their products. They insist on fair trade policies for their workers  and use only eco-cotton (i.e., recycled cotton) and natural, un-dyed wool.

Available in earth tones and shades of gray, the company’s wool rugs are offered in loom-hooked, supple woven, thick flatweave, and classic flatweave. The eco-cotton rugs are either loom-hooked, flatweave, or braided.

Scroll through these options to select an un-dyed wool rug, or opt for an eco-cotton rug here. Before deciding on your rug, be sure to look at the following:

Don’t forget your non-skid pad for underneath your rugs, too. You’ll find these rugs to be durable and created with exemplary craftsmanship. Free shipping is always provided.

These innovative rug makers are sure to exceed your expectations once you start browsing their sites. We’re pretty sure you’ll find every color, style, and size available, as well as the right look for any room you’re decorating. Easy to order online and very reasonably priced, we’re certain these rug brands hold something for everyone.

How to eliminate that musty ‘basement’ smell
Mold and mildew are big basement problems, but they can be solved
Finished basement with wood paneling

Do you avoid spending time in your basement because of its unpleasant odors? Whether it's finished or not, basements are typically cool, damp, and have little airflow going through them, which are all factors that contribute to its musty smell. Unfortunately, it takes more than general cleaning practices and air fresheners to rid the space of mustiness for good. Take a look at some of these tried-and-true methods for how to get rid of musty smell in basement spaces, so you can keep it smelling light, airy, and fresh.
1. Find the culprit of the musty smell

If you smell that common musty stench, the culprit is often mold or mildew. Since basements tend to be damp and have little airflow, they are common hot spots for mold and mildew growth. The first step in preventing further growth by sealing any leaky spots and inefficient drains.
Leaking windows and doors
Check your basement's exterior doors and windows for signs of moisture. Since leaks on the first floor can often drain into the basement, check the windows and doors on the main floor as well. If you find moisture around these entry points from rain or condensation, re-seal the area or call a professional to repair it.
Leaking pipes
Whether pipes are visible in your basement or not, you need to check them regularly for leaks. Examine any water and sewage pipes for signs of leaks and repair any cracks or poor seals. If plumber's tape or epoxy putty can't repair the leak, it's time to call a professional.
Dried-up drains
Basement floor drains direct water out of the home to keep the floors dry and prevent them from flooding. The stagnant water in this drain also traps bad odors emanating from the sewage system below. However, these drains can dry up from infrequent use, releasing stench into the air. If you notice smells arising near your floor drains, just pour a few cups of water into the drain to block the gases from escaping.
