Guest Picks: 20 Outdoor Rugs to Bring Inside

Bringing the outdoors in is a great way to create a beautiful and practical home. By using outdoor fabrics on your furniture and outdoor rugs on your floors, you can remove any nerves and just enjoy your home. Indoor-outdoor rugs can be scrubbed and bleached, and some are even soft to the touch. Consider using one as a runner up your stairs, under your dining room table or even in your family room! — Abby from Abby M. Interiors
