Spring is finally here! This past weekend, we took the time to clean up our outdoor space and get it summer grillin’ ready. This is the first time we’ve ever had an outdoor patio space, so we’re slowly starting to piece everything together.

Our friends at Rugs USA invited us to check out their huge selection of rugs and we decided to pick an outdoor rug to warm up our patio space.

Keeping in theme with our white and grey interiors, we chose the 5′ x 8′  Somerset Flatweave Outdoor Rug. I love how it’s got two tones of grey and provides a nice contrast with our white fence, light green brick walls, and concrete patio floor. We actually have a very similarly patterned white shag rug with grey diamonds drawn on it in our living room (similar to this one from Rugs USA) so it matches with our interiors as well!

The pups were quick to explore our outdoor space and new rug. I love that it helps keep their paws cleaner when they’re hanging out with us outside. Of course, they still get a wipe with a wet towelette before coming back into the house.

The rug is made of polyester which is suitable for sitting outdoors. It’s also a nice material that’s been easy to sweep leaves off of, so makes cleaning and maintenance a breeze.

Thanks so much to the Rugs USA team for sending us this lovely rug for our outdoor space!
