Jute rugs from natural fibers that are durable and long-lasting. They're also a great choice for any season, but they're especially popular in the spring and summer months because they're breathable and cool. If you live in a cold climate, jute rugs can also help to insulate your home and keep you warm on cold days. No matter what your needs are, a jute rug is a great option. They're easy to care for and can be vacuumed regularly to remove dirt and debris.

In recent years, I reached a breaking point where I just completely gave up on having a runner in my kitchen. I had gone through three in two years (and to be honest, it probably should have been more than that—I kept one of them around for way too long). Most of my runner-related drama came thanks to an unwieldy 2-year-old human and her frenemy/fur sibling, my sweet-as-can-be papillon, Lulu, who is house-trained—but also 15 years old and in poor health. Our dining room rug had suffered as well.

The same goes for wet areas, such as kitchens or bathrooms. A rug with Latex will prevent slipping while the cotton will feel soft underfoot after a shower.

If we could only recommend one rug made with jute, we'd have to go with the Harriette from Lulu & Georgia. This handmade, artisanal-quality piece is woven from ultra-strong jute ropes. The undyed fibers are a golden straw-like hue, offering an endlessly versatile, down-to-earth aesthetic. From dining rooms and living rooms to bedrooms and entryways, the design works in every room and complements virtually any decor scheme. Your rug should be the first thing you sink your toes into after stepping out of bed. So, when choosing a new rug for your bedroom, you want it to feel soft and comfortable underfoot. Go for calming colours rather than bold shades to create a soothing vibe.

Our Sloane Easy-Jute Washable Crosshatch rug. Photo by @alexa.elizabeth.style. What are Easy-Jute rugs? After washing: Many, many washes later, and this rug looks pretty close to how it did when it arrived. I’m pleasantly surprised, and now I love this thing. The ease of throwing it in the washing machine and dryer whenever and as often as I’d like brings me an unexpected sense of joy. And fun fact: You can home-wash/dry all of the brand’s rugs, even its largest size (10-by-14 feet).
