Whether it’s cold out or not, you want the inside of your home to be a comfortable, warm place. And the key to pulling that off? Rolling out cozy rugs! By adding a soft rug to your space, you’re establishing a solid foundation made for bringing in even more cozy layers through furniture and accents. Plus, who doesn’t love the way a super soft rug feels beneath their feet? Here, we’ll walk you through some of our favorite styles and show you how to seamlessly incorporate them into your home.

Embrace a Mix of Textures
Rugs with high-low, mixed piles are perfect for adding that extra dose of coziness. These designs are all about the texture, bringing unexpected character to any space they inhabit. We love the idea of incorporating a mix of materials and textures throughout your space—think velvet, faux shearling, tassels, linen—to enliven even more.
Snuggle Up to Faux Fur
We promise: Nothing will feel better on bare feet than a faux fur sherpa accent rug, and there are so many places you can add them in your home. Layering over a larger, soft rug next to the bed is genius (as seen above), but we also love draping them over the back of the couch or a bench or using them as added cushioning in kids’ rooms.
Sink Into Soft Shag Rugs
Shag rugs may call to mind old ’70s-inspired carpets, but we’re here to tell you that they are anything but outdated. With plush, ultra-thick piles, shags are the ultimate in cozy rugs and are perfect for bringing in all the warmth to any space. We love them the most in areas like the living room and the bedroom, where you’ll be relaxing and spending a lot of downtime.
Warm It Up with Cozy Wool Rugs
Wool rugs are an obvious choice for cozying up your space, thanks to their naturally warm, thick fibers. We’re especially partial to our washable wool rugs, which have all the thickness and comfort of traditional wool rugs, just with the capability of cleaning in the washing machine. Try adding one to mess-prone areas, like a kids’ playroom or the dining room, for a worry-free look that provides plenty of peace of mind.
Take It To the Next Level by Layering Soft Rugs
When it’s cold outside, you’re obviously going to layer up, wearing a sweater under a coat with a scarf and hat. It makes for a comfy, decidedly cozy look—and the same technique can be used with rugs. To up the ante on coziness, try layering rugs to infuse your space with tons of warmth and character. Bonus points if the rugs have different textures!
