Outdoor rugs are made to withstand lots of traffic and rough conditions, making them an excellent choice for homes with kids and pets. There is a tactile element, especially if you are enjoying the outdoors barefoot. Outdoor rugs can instantly make your otherwise brown decking area colourful and filled with pattern.
