We have about 10 rugs in our home at the moment. Those are the ones on display. And then I have a handful that I can’t part with, but they don’t go with our style in our new place. They’re just collecting dust in storage so I thought I’d research ways to incorporate them into our pad in some way before getting rid of them! Here are 10 things you can and should try before parting ways with your old rugs!
