Incorporating Orange and Brown Rugs into Your Thanksgiving Decor

For many, the Thanksgiving season — and fall in general — are some of the most exciting times of the year. Why?

That’s easy: it’s the diversity of color. Fall is full of deep reds and bright oranges, among many other colors. Bringing these into your home, especially when incorporating orange and brown rugs into your Thanksgiving decor, is a fun experience for many homeowners.

Here are a few tips to help you start this process.

Take a look at your other Thanksgiving decorations.

Do you already have a box full of Thanksgiving decorations that you’ve already put up? Or are you holding off on decorating until you buy your rug first? Either way, consider your existing decor’s colors, patterns, and shapes. If you plan to keep these decorations, look for a rug that would complement these. 

However, if you plan on starting fresh, begin with your rug. Find your ideal orange or brown rug, and then purchase new decorations that will accompany it.

Consider the psychology of color.

However, when considering all aspects of decorating for Thanksgiving, don’t forget about the psychology of color. Orange itself tends to evoke the idea of excitement, newness, creativity, and overall happiness. On the other hand, brown often creates emotions along the lines of dependability and resilience.

Now, consider these colors in the context of what you want to express with your Thanksgiving decor. The possibilities are endless, and you can get creative with orange and brown rugs during this time of year.

Think about which shapes best suit your room.

Next, rugs don’t just come in one shape. Most people think of an area rug as a large rectangular piece. Look for an orange and brown round rug if you have a small space. This can help your space feel much larger while bringing many of the emotions we just talked about into your room.

Go for contrasts.

When selecting your other decorative items, consider the contrasts they’ll create with your new rug. While you probably won’t want to repaint your room for a single season, the other accent pieces you utilize can help draw out the colors within the rug.

Remember that quality is key.

Lastly, we want to emphasize the importance of quality. If you plan to use this rug for each Thanksgiving season, you’ll want to invest in one that will last for a long time. A handmade rug will serve you far better in this area than one that is machine-made from a big box store.
