Rugs for a Perfect Memorial Day Weekend Picnic

Don’t we all yearn for those long weekends when we can relax, chill and have a good time? After weeks of burning out and working long hours, we really do look forward to long weekend holidays. Now that Memorial Day Weekend is approaching, a lot of us might be getting away and traveling out of town. However, for those of us who are in town, why not make the most of it and make our Memorial Day weekend, memorable. One of the best ways to go about the same is by planning a family and friends getaway, kind of like a picnic.

Planning a picnic is fun, yet overwhelming. The first thing that crosses everyone’s mind is food. We all want to pack yummy food and drinks and make our picnic fun and enjoyable. However, we seldom forget about the most important thing- where will everyone sit and be accommodated while eating food? Rugs are the best answer to this and here we are going to tell you about different rug options you can use for your fun picnic.

• Outdoor Rugs

There are a variety of factors to take into consideration while choosing a rug, especially for a picnic. One of the most important factors is to ensure that the rug is suitable and conducive enough for an outdoor area. When we are placing a rug outside, it is best to avoid expensive silk rugs and Persian rugs. An outdoor rug should be easy to use, clean and maintain

• Jute Rugs

Jute rugs are natural fiber rugs and are environmentally friendly. Such rugs are sustainable, easy to use and clean. Jute rugs are usually handmade in shades of brown, cream, beige and similar earthy tones and shades. Jute rugs are perfect to use for this Memorial Day Weekend picnic. Yak Carpet is a pioneer in custom order handmade rugs and such jute rugs can easily be found at reasonable prices.

• Dhurries

Dhurries are versatile in nature and are handmade in wool as well as cotton. We recommend using cotton handmade dhurries for an outdoor picnic, in bright, vibrant colors, something that will make the picnic fun while adding vibrancy to the whole picnic. Also, dhurries are inexpensive and one can easily spend a few bucks to pick a colorful dhurry for this Memorial Day weekend, picnic.

• Kilims

Rustic kilims placed under a mahogany tree with wind sifting through one’s hair. This might sound straight from a movie scene, but we can make your movie buff goals come true by placing a beautiful rustic, old world charm kilim and making the space kind of like a bohemian. Lastly, kilims are inexpensive and easy to wash and clean and shall add that extra spruce to an outdoor picnic.

• Chindi Dhurries

Chindi dhurries are seldom unheard off, however, such dhurries are gaining immense popularity, especially for outdoor rugs. The specialty of such dhurries is that they are bright; colors and most interestingly handmade out of recycle material.
