How to Place Your Rug

The right rug size depends on how you want it to interact with your furniture and layout.

Modern living room with yellow sofa, green wool geometric rug, and large windows.

In living rooms, rugs can sit fully beneath furniture for a unified look, or partially under front legs for a more open feel.

Modern dining area with wooden table and chairs on a green oval rug, pendant light, and large windows.

In dining rooms, the rug should extend beyond the table on all sides so chairs stay on the rug when pulled out.

Modern bedroom with wooden platform bed, blue rug, and large windows overlooking a scenic view.

In bedrooms, place the rug beneath the bed, leaving visible rug space at the sides and foot to frame the room.

Frequently Asked Questions

Start with your room layout and furniture placement. A rug should connect the main pieces of furniture — either with all legs resting on it or at least the front legs to create cohesion. Larger rugs ground a space, while smaller rugs can define specific zones. For more guidance, see our Rug Size Guide.

For living rooms, a rug should be large enough to fit at least the front legs of your seating arrangement. Common sizes include:

8x10 ft: Ideal for standard sofas and seating areas.
9x12 ft: Works well for larger living rooms or open layouts.
5x7 ft: Best for compact spaces or layering over a larger rug.
Check our Rug Size Guide for more layout ideas.

To ensure chairs remain on the rug when pulled out, the rug should extend at least 24 inches beyond the table on all sides.

6x9 ft: Fits a table for 4.
8x10 ft: Fits a table for 6-8.
9x12 ft: Fits a table for 8-10.
Check our Rug Size Guide for more details.

As a general rule, leave a border of exposed flooring around the edges of the room. This keeps the proportions balanced and prevents the rug from feeling crowded.

Why Choose a 5x7 Rug?
A 5x7 rug is a versatile option for a variety of spaces, offering the perfect size to enhance medium-sized rooms or specific areas in larger layouts. Whether you’re looking to define a seating area, add a soft surface beside a bed, or create a focal point in your kitchen, 5x7 rugs are a practical and stylish solution.

Popular Designs and Styles
At Jubi, our 5x7 rugs come in a range of designs to suit any aesthetic. Shag rugs bring plush comfort, while colorful checkered patterns add bold character. For a softer, earthy feel, boho and Moroccan-inspired styles work beautifully. Neutral tones like beige or cream complement minimalistic decor, while brighter hues like pink or navy blue make a statement.

Handmade Quality
Each Jubi rug is handcrafted using premium wool, ensuring a luxurious feel and exceptional durability. Wool rugs are naturally resistant to stains and wear, making them an excellent choice for busy households or spaces with frequent foot traffic.

Tips for Styling a 5x7 Rug
In the Living Room: Center a 5x7 rug under a coffee table or use it to define a seating area.
In the Bedroom: Place the rug at the foot of a queen or full bed, or use it beside the bed for a cozy morning step.
In the Entryway: A 5x7 rug makes a welcoming statement in larger foyers, adding both style and function.

Caring for Your 5x7 Rug
To keep your rug looking its best, vacuum regularly using a gentle setting. Spot clean spills promptly with a damp cloth, and rotate the rug occasionally to ensure even wear.
