Beautiful outdoor rugs – get this year’s ‘it’ accessory

Make your outdoor space as beautiful as your indoor space with these stylish and affordable indoor/outdoor rugs. Made from recyclable PET or polypropylene you don't have to compromise on style or comfort for the sake of a sustainable lifestyle. #outdoor #outdoorrugs #rugs #sustainablelifestyle #recycledplastic #patio #terrace #outdoorspace #indooroutdoor #summerliving #summerideas #draussenteppich

This summer, I managed to get my hands on a load of wooden pallets so my summer project kind of got decided for me! There will be a post coming once the whole project is finished but in the meantime, I thought I’d share with you the little projects in between.

An outdoor rug -Ties indoors & outdoors together

There are a few items I need to get, to bring this project together and one of those items is an outdoor rug. Now, outdoor rugs have changed enormously over the last few years and they’ve become the ‘must have’ of outdoor dining/sitting area accessories. Outdoor rugs are perfect for hiding the ugly, so if your patio stones are looking a bit the worse for wear, a large area rug will cover all that up. For instance, if you’ve just bought a house, the garden is usually the last thing on the list for renovations. An outdoor rug can turn your space from eyesore to eye candy in a jiffy!

I also wrote about outdoor rugs in the post, 5 Affordable ways to improve your outdoor space which is another great read if you need to revamp you outdoor space on a tight budget.

Eco-friendly outdoor rugs

Outdoor rugs are available in all sorts of colours and patterns, and at first glance, you can’t even tell that they are made of plastic. Now, when I say ‘plastic’, I mean recycled plastic – I must say, buying plastic products makes me feel more than a little uncomfortable these days. I mean, I know it’s unavoidable, plastic seems to be in everything, even the clothes we wear but if I can do without it then I absolutely will. I can’t keep watching all that TV footage showing the damage we are doing to our beautiful planet with the huge amount of waste we produce (who hasn’t seen the plastic whale footage and not wept buckets?) and then continue along my jolly way to my next plastic purchase!

Recycled & recyclable

Anyway, I don’t want to get all heavy on you, you came here for the rugs I know, it’s just – well you know, every little helps when it comes to sustainability and we have to start somewhere. That’s why I was so pleased to find these beautiful rugs which are all made from recycled or recyclable materials. This means that when they’re old and worn and need replacing, they won’t end up killing our precious marine life, they’ll be recycled into something even more wonderful for someone else to enjoy!
