Trust Us: How to Choose the Right Rug Size For All of Your Rooms

If you like the look of a rug in a formal dining room, opt for 6'x9' or larger with a pattern (to hide splatters!) and low pile (for easy cleanup). This 8'x10' Safavieh Vintage Olivia Area Rug ($561) fits the bill on both counts, and it's available in seven different colorways to match your decor. Plus, it's silky-soft yet low-maintenance — what's not to like?
