Area rugs

The husband has been picking on our area rug in the dining room for weeks now and keeps talking about wanting to replace it. I wasn't opposed but didn't really feel that it was an urgent need so I didn't really pay attention and just left it to him to handle (and if you know us, this really means that nothing gets done because the husband just talks but doesn't really action on anything).

It wasn't until I sat down on the couch recently that I realized how shabby our living room rug had gotten. The edging on the back perimeter had been falling off but I figured I could glue that back on but I had not noticed until recently that there were areas that were already threadbare (i.e. the material had worn down). With this realization, I took another look at our dining area and agreed that yes, husband does have a point. 

Got a few rugs off of Amazon, these are made of synthetic materials that are non-shedding (for context, the previous living room rug shed A LOT). Not spectacular but not bad at the price-point and will be happy if they last us a few years. 

In retrospect, replacing these rugs is a no-brainer. The old rug in the dining area was from 2014/2015 and the rug in the living area was from 2018. 

Living room rug: 9x12 (next time, a 10x10 would probably be a better fit)

Dining room rug: 8x10
