I like to have a little door mat type rug in front of my stove, sink and garage door. I change them out seasonally like now they are Christmas rugs. I also have one in front of the front door. We have tile floors so this helps to keep the floors cleaner. Do you have small rugs on the floor?

I have rugs all through the house, in a vain effort to keep it warm. This is a rented house, and has tile floors throughout. It's great in summer, really cool. But in winter it is ice cold and having something underfoot makes a real difference.
Every day I have to shake them all outside and sweep the house through. Then when the weather is bright enough to dry them I stick them throught the washing machine.
The only room I DON'T have rugs is the kitchen. I find that I've forever tripping over them, so it's safest not to have them somewhere where there's hot pans about.

We are having a hard time keeping ours down cause of Shilo who won't leave them alone. Nothing is sacred when it comes to that dog.

Hi sweet! Yes, I do have rugs on the floor in my kitchen by
my stove and sink. And you gave me a good idea! I should look
for some Christmas ones! I never really think about changing
them. I only look to change them and make sure that they
match the colors in the kitchen! I am actually waiting for
my landlord to give me a new kitchen floor which is taking
forever! I use the rugs to hide the really bad stains under
those spots. If I see some cut Christmas ones I will pick
them up! Thanks for the idea!

I have a full throw run in my kitchen where between my stove, sink and refrigerator because I have a while tile floor and I find the rug keeps the floor cleaner. I do not change it for the season because it is 8' X 5' and I have to make a cut out around the refrigerator.
I do have small throw rugs in each entry way of the house. I have five doors going in and out of my house. The rugs sure pick up a lot from coming into the house.

I like the way it makes the space look so homey. I rarely wear shoes at home either.
