Inspired By Kilim Rugs

I’ve been inspired by some beautiful Kilim rugs I’ve spotted around the internet recently. I’ve wanted one of these for years, but have yet to get one other than a small DIY Kilim rug I made awhile back. Kilim rugs, also referred to as Turkish rugs are hand-woven rugs. Rather than your typical pile type rug, these are made using a process known as the flatweave. They have a very distinct style that is easy to spot. Here are some of my favorite spaces using Kilim rugs.

The Southern Loom made me do a double take with this amazing staircase covered in Kilim rugs. Amazing!! I mean really amazing!

The Kilim rug in the entry way shown here is the perfect finishing touch to this character-filled space.

 

Also from Amber Interiors (via Instagram) is this amazing ottoman covered in a Kilim. They custom make these for clients, so if you’re interested stop by and check them out!

 

The rug is the star of the show in this simple,  modern living room.

 

If you’re afraid to commit to a large rug, start with a small  Kilim rug in the kitchen.

 

A Kilim rug in the bathroom will take your design up a notch or two.
