Outdoor Polypropylene Area Rugs With Stylish Motifs
Everyone with a front porch or a doorway or a deck has at least thought about having outdoor rugs on which to wipe their feet, sit, read, or give color and texture to their outdoor space. The problem is that door mats are usually ugly, coarse and not very large and the larger outdoor rugs are not very durable, get musty smelling, and are difficult to clean, not to mention, that in the past, outdoor rugs were not at all snuggly for toes, not places to sit and read a book or to stretch out on, and certainly didn’t add much of a decorative element. Outdoor rugs consisted mostly of horrid indoor/outdoor fake green grass type of carpeting, that was never a very good idea. This has changed considerably. Let me tell you about some great outdoor rugs that are not just soft for toes, but durable, easy to clean and really funky in stylish designs with both modern and classic motifs.
Polypropylene Area Rugs With Sass
First, polypropylene is a thermoplastic polymer that can be made in hard resin forms or formed into soft durable fibers for carpets and area rugs. If you’re thinking they will feel like plastic or resin underfoot, then you need to take a few steps on the all new outdoor rugs that are 100% polypropylene but are very snuggly. One company that creates not only soft rugs but also funky designs is Surya, and one series is the Alfresco line which as the name implies is specific for outdoor use, although the fibers are so soft, their carpets could just as easily be placed beside the sofa. But, here is why they work wonders outdoors:
1. they’re ideal on a patio or deck or even on a high traffic porch area because they can be cleaned with a regular garden hose. Yes, just spray them clean!
2. they’re resistant to staining, humidity and even withstand UV rays in the full summer sun.
3. they’re designed in funky colors and natural looking textures and motifs that go with outdoor themes – there are beautiful combination's crafted in subtle neutral tones like beige, soft greens and browns.
4. Surya polypropylene area rugs are affordable and come in small and large sizes and lots of great shapes, like the normal round and square and rectangular ones, but also practical runners that are great for long porches, hallways, entryways and even garden walkways, be they covered or not.
5. motifs on these strong outdoor rugs are as diverse as the ones for indoors, like zebra and other animal prints, ultra modern contemporary and geometric shapes, classic leaf borders, plain natural patterns with flecks of color, dots, circles, lines and cosmopolitan abstracts. Yes, there also subtle outdoor designs that have palms or beach themes and even really funky 1950’s retro motifs, although they’re more whimsical than kitschy.
