Best Rugs for the Kitchen

Have you ever wondered about putting a rug in the kitchen?

What is the best rug to use in the kitchen?

Here is what I learned about putting a rug in the kitchen...


And here is the great answer!

I hemmed and hawed over whether or not to put an area rug in my kitchen. I had images in my head of it being covered with red juice, chocolate, and just being an absolute mess.

Well I bought a rug and that didn't happen!

After having my cabinets painted, and you can see that process HERE, I wanted something gray and off white like the paint.

I ordered this Striped Chevron Rug from Ballard Designs. 

This rug is an indoor/outdoor rug, the colors were perfect,
and it was reasonably priced too.

I figured that if it ever got dirty, I could take it outside and hose it off.

I am here to tell you that the rug has been down in the center of my busy kitchen for over 6 months now.

I have 2 teenagers and a twenty something living at home,
that means a lot of food and a zillion friends in the kitchen.


How did the carpet in the kitchen hold up? 


The carpet doesn't have 1 spot on it, everything seems to 
bead up on it like magic. 

I will be totally honest here and tell you that I only sweep it off once a week. (I did not win Housekeeper of the Year)
