I want to get a rug to put under my dinning room table but I'm not sure what kind would be best. I have three small kids.
With three small kids I would not put one there, but if you want one, then make it a colour and print that won't show stains and spills or you will be cleaning it all the time.
Grandinroad and Frontgate catalogs offer indoor/outdoor rugs that are absolutely beautiful and can be cleaned by simply taking them outside and hosing them down. They are inexpensive and soft to the touch and come in patterns from traditional oriental looks to contemporary. I started by buying one for my outdoor deck but since have added them to my foyers and study. I get qreat compliments on them. No one knows unless I tell them they are so indestructible and easy to clean. You can check with both of these companies on line as well.
