Fresh accent in the interior: carpet grass

The use of polyethylene materials that mimic grass is very popular today. These carpets adorn a variety of rooms.

Features of herbal patterns

Everyone knows that golf and soccer fields often use fake grass. However, so far only the most “advanced” people in design matters decide to use this coating at home.

Carpet grass is perfect for indoor use. It reminds of summer, filling the inhabitants of the house with energy, relieves stress and tones.

Such products consist of artificial blades implanted in a plastic border. In this case, the villi may differ from each other in length and density, as well as in color.

Artificial grass carpets can be matched to any room - thanks to a variety of models and different prices.

Modern manufacturers produce models with different pile lengths for a reason. This is an important indicator that determines where it is recommended to use a carpet, how to care for it.

So, carpets with a long fluffy pile, which is pleasant to the touch, are appropriate in residential premises, while more rigid models are most often used on the street or terrace.

No less important is such a parameter of products as density. It is she who most often affects the appearance and price of the carpet. The thicker the pile, the longer the carpet will look good, since such a coating has the ability to hide imperfections.

This carpet is suitable for walking barefoot or lying down. Typically, such models are offered by trusted manufacturers, from better materials, which affects the cost of the finished product.

Dimensions

Carpet grass does not limit the designer in solutions. You can cover the entire floor in the room. To do this, use artificial grass in rolls. You can locate the material locally, in the middle or by zoning certain areas.

The “room lawn” option is very popular when the carpet is located in the center of the room, surrounded by other interior items. Then it becomes a gaming zone or simply represents a bright accent of the whole interior.

I must say that this technique is used not only in homes, but also in children's, psychological centers. All because of the calming effect of green, which motivates people to interact and sincerity.

You can combine several different longitudinal carpets in the same room. This is a rather eccentric design option that requires impeccable taste. It is important to choose colors and textures that blend perfectly together.

Small rugs are used to protect laminate or parquet boards from damage - for example, the legs of a chair. You can lean them on a carpet of grass, which will act in this situation as a reliable assistant.

Forms

A variety of designs of carpets of this type leaves room for imagination. You can choose classic rectangular models of any size: from a door mat to a large product.

There are oval and round models, most resembling lawns. The same can be said of models with green squares.

In addition, artificial grass carpet is used to decorate and create local accents. You can decorate individual pieces of furniture with this material or use it in another way.

Usually finished carpets do not require trimming. Some furniture stores provide ready-made options in the form of all kinds of drops and blots that look extremely expressive in the design of the room.

Colors

Of course, the favorite among carpets with artificial grass pile is green. It imitates a natural covering and often does not concede to it regarding relaxation and calm. However (unlike real grass), such a coating does not get dirty, insects that can bite a person and cause all sorts of discomfort are not found in it.

This color can have a variety of shades: bright green, acid, lime, green yellow. The carpet with beige splashes looks natural, reminiscent of slightly dried grass at the height of summer.

Among the carpet grass models, green is primarily taken into account, but there are many other colors that bear little resemblance to wildlife. However, such products still have a special pile.

Indoor and outdoor carpets are available in red and pink. They are suitable for those who like the idea of ​​having an artificial lawn at home, but they do not want to see green in the interior. It just can get out of the general orientation and color scheme of the interior.

Products of other colors that differ from green do not cause direct associations with lawns and grass, so they can be used in a variety of interiors.

The color palette of carpets is very rich. There are yellow, blue-violet, even black patterns. Dark products are not so popular among consumers, but they manage to find their buyer.

What are grass carpets?

All green carpets “under the grass”, that is, with pile, fall into this category.. A common characteristic for models is color, and its shades can be completely different.

That is why carpets are classified more often by texture:

  1. Hard and soft pile. In the first case, as a rule, small rugs are purchased in the hallway, where the softness of the fibers does not play a role or does harm. Soft carpets are suitable for those rooms where they often walk barefoot.
  2. Short and long fibers. The choice of this characteristic depends solely on the preferences of the buyer, his ability to care for the coating.
  3. Tactile sensations from the material. As a rule, grass carpets are made of polypropylene, but in some cases, linen and the like are also added.

Take into account such characteristics as shape and size: you will have to refuse to buy even the most beautiful carpet if it simply does not fit on a given area.

Carpet Care

Before buying, you should decide for yourself: are you ready to care for grass carpets? It takes a lot of time to care for many of them.

Since it is preferable to buy a carpet with a long pile for residential premises, the coating will have to be put in dry cleaning 1-2 times a month so that dust does not accumulate in it.

To minimize the level of bacteria, it is recommended to vacuum the surface every 2–3 days and carry out wet cleaning weekly.

Owners of long-haired animals are in particular danger: the hairs are tangled in the fibers of the carpet, stuck between them. To ensure that the coating is not contaminated, it is necessary to thoroughly and often clean it.

On a note! In general, the main problem of caring for a carpet under the grass is not the complexity, but the regularity of cleaning. Since the green color contrasts strongly with any dirt, the smallest spot or dust will be visible immediately.

Classification

On the shelves of shops, building materials sites, various designs of carpet-green lawns are presented, in the manufacture of which different materials were used, but they are classified as follows:

  • a hard pile is used as a rubber mat with grass, convenient for use in passers-by rooms, its maintenance does not cause difficulties,
  • the soft question is applicable in rooms where barefoot walking is possible,
  • the length of the fibers of such carpets is the complete prerogative of the owner of the room, only affects the content of work to maintain sanitary condition,
  • the sensation of touch depends on the base material, which can be natural (from cotton or wool), as well as artificial (from viscose), while the quality of the product plays an important role.

Indoor use

1. The rooms of a modern apartment that use a green carpet are strikingly different from other rooms. The visual effect they create allows you to breathe easily and freely. But always a bright interior comes to life, it becomes much brighter and more welcoming. The rooms, decorated with strict gray, white, coffee colors, take on new shades.

2. With the variety of styles used to create an interior in the age of speeds and gray cities, more and more people are leaning towards the original natural style - eco. Its basis is the maximum use of natural materials (glass, stones of various shapes, wooden elements, etc.), the presence of living plants. The design of the floor with the grassy surface of the carpet is the best suited to this style. It is possible to emphasize commitment to this style when using original flowerpots and pots from simple eco-friendly materials.

Green carpet

Important! When placing flowerpots with plants, it should be borne in mind that the wrong choice of their location can be traumatic, especially when children are in the room.

Practice shows that in rooms where artificial grass and carpets of a different texture are combined, the colors look advantageous and original. A green lawn interspersed with small rugs of different colors of the rainbow brings notes of admiration and good mood. There is little practical benefit from such an arrangement of elements, but the appearance is original and visually pleasing.

3. Artificial grass is often used by parents to decorate children's rooms. Green color is considered to be calming, forming an emotional background that contributes to the development of intelligence. A carpet in the form of grass creates an atmosphere of spring, placing children to games and communication.

Cottages

Not all owners of summer cottages manage to grow a natural green lawn. Some of them lack sufficient water supply, sometimes the land is not suitable for the efficient cultivation of plants, and often the owners come to the site only on weekends. In such cases, the perfect solution is to organize an artificial lawn on part of the territory. To do this, you need to prepare a flat area and purchase the required amount of coverage. When deciding to place it on a large area today, it is enough to contact representatives of the company whose activities are related to landscaping, and in a short time the material will be delivered and carefully laid taking into account all the wishes of the owner.

Artificial grass

Care and maintenance

The frequency of care for carpets that mimic grass directly depends on the length of the pile, the intensity of the loads and the presence of animals. In the latter case, restoring order is associated with the need to clean the surface of the carpet from wool and the life of our smaller brothers. The recommended vacuum cleaner in all other cases should be at least twice a week. This is due to the rapid accumulation of the lush surface of the carpet, dust and small particles. Failure to comply with periodic preventive maintenance will lead to the need to turn to the services of dry cleaning products.

The material below offers one of the options for home cleaning carpet.

Video 1. Carpet Cleaning

Important! The use of artificial grass in apartments where people with pulmonary diseases live, requires daily cleaning of the coating and mandatory monthly chemical treatment.

Modern technologies in many ways contribute to the inclusion of ever new forms in the interior of the room. Not so long ago it was impossible to imagine that you could place a carpet in the room - green as grass, and at the same time choose it without any difficulties from a wide selection of shades and textured solutions. Owners of premises in matters of their design today can be limited only by imagination and personal preferences.

Features

The grass carpet is an imitation of a green lawn. It will help to feel the summer at home all year round. Such flooring can add coziness and cheerfulness to your interior. The green color of the artificial grass helps to relax, relieves eye strain.

The carpet is mostly made of synthetic raw materials, so it will not cause a reaction in people suffering from allergies to animal hair.

But there are options with the use of linen, cotton threads, which make the product softer and more pleasant, also without causing health problems. A huge assortment of models will help to fit such an accessory into any room of the house, as well as place it on the terrace and in the garden.

Models

There is a large selection of carpets on the market that mimic a green lawn. Here are a few models of this product:

  • Green grass carpet which imitates various plants. Here you will find moss, and dried grass, and moss. Its fantasy form will help create a natural island in your home, because, in addition to grass, the product imitates earth and stones. The different pile and texture of this carpet will provide micromassage and relieve stress from your feet after a hard day.
  • Oval carpet with a thick pile will be an excellent option for covering the floor near the bed in the bedroom. Your product, lowered from the bed, this product will wrap caress and warm, will not freeze even in winter cold.

  • Lawn mat. It is unlikely to be like this product, but with its help it is easy to organize a green corner in the room, especially for those who do not like to take care of indoor plants.
  • Imitation coating sports lawn. Such a carpet will look great on the terrace, transferring nature from the garden to your feet.
  • High pile item It will be a great option for the living room, it will not only be pleasant to walk on it, but also to lie on such a fluffy green lawn, decorated with this attribute, is also quite comfortable. True, caring for such a long pile is rather difficult, especially if a cat or dog lives in the house. He will cling to their hair, which is quite problematic to clean from the villi.

Color schemes and decor

No matter how you want to buy a green grass carpet home, you first need to think about how it will combine with the decor of your room, and choose the right shade. Moreover, these products have a fairly wide range of colors. Here you will find herbal, olive tone, lime color, dried grass, emerald and many others.

Using green carpets imitating a forest clearing in your interior, you can choose models both monophonic and using various ornaments. Quite popular here are geometric shapes in the form of squares or circles.

Here are a few win-win options that can be used in interiors of different colors.

The green carpet will be able to revive and fill with freshness, which seems rather dull, the interior in white-gray or coffee tones. In this case, the carpet will become exactly that accent in the interior that will attract attention. The color of the product in this case should be saturated, grassy.

For the eco-style that has been popular in recent years, a green lawn is also a great flooring. A beige-green combination for this room decoration will be suitable. At the same time, walls and furniture can be beige, and carpet and other textiles are green. In this case, the tone of the carpet can be both saturated, and, for example, olive, or a shade close to light green.

Also, to design a room in an eco-style, a grass carpet, which imitates various types of vegetation and natural relief, is well suited.

Another winning combination of colors in the interior for an eco-style is green and brown. It will symbolize a tree. The carpet in this case should be the color of natural grass, closer to dark green. The combination of green grass in the form of a carpet and blue sky, created using walls and ceilings, will also help to immerse yourself in nature. A bright green hue is preferred here.

Also, a green grass carpet will go well with red furniture, while the walls should be neutral tones, white or milky. The red-green combination will symbolize a poppy meadow. At the same time, green is able to mitigate the aggression of a red tint. But the colors here should be pure, without shades.

The blue-green combination is rather complicated. The interior in these colors is quite bright, and not everyone will decide to design their room this way. And it is better to entrust this design of the room to specialists.

Black color in combination with grass carpet should only be used as separate accessories. They will symbolize the earth. But with such attributes it’s quite easy to overload the interior.

Which to choose?

Types of carpets that mimic the grass, oddly enough, a huge amount. And the choice of this flooring depends on several factors.

  1. Carpets are different in purpose. Modern golf or soccer venues are often covered with artificial turf. Modern designers suggest using such coverage on the territory of the house, equipping them with floors on terraces or land in the garden. Carpet grass for use in open areas is made of polyethylene. He is not afraid of either rain or snow, he does not fade in the sun, does not crush under the load of people passing through it. The house uses softer imitations of green lawns, the pile of which is soft and pleasant to walk barefoot on the carpet.
  2. This flooring is divided along the length of the pile. If in the open air carpets with short nap are preferably used, then in a house with a higher one.
  3. Models have different densities of villi. The appearance of the carpet depends on the stuffing of the carpet. The thicker the pile, the better it looks. Of course, the price of such a sample will be much higher.

The choice is also influenced by the required form. You can cover the entire floor of the room with this coating, or select a certain corner of the room and organize a green oasis there.

The purpose of the room in which you plan to lay the carpet-weed also plays an important role in choosing this product. Moreover, not only the shape and size of the carpet, but also the length of the pile, and what it is made of depends on the type of room.

So in the living room or in the children's room With this product you can complete the floors, although a green island in the form of a carpet-meadow is also acceptable in these rooms. In this case, the product should have a thick long pile, it should be pleasant to walk on it.

In the hall at the front door you can put a rug, which is designed for outdoor installation. It can be washed if necessary, at the same time, such an accessory will add colors to the hallway.

To the kitchen it is better to lay a carpet that simulates small grass, away from the cutting table. Since this flooring is easy to stain, and on the green color immediately visible pollution.

It is also better to use products with a small pile to make it easier to clean.

In the bathroom a green lawn is also appropriate. But for this room you need to choose materials that absorb water well and dry quickly. Cotton and bamboo are well suited as them.

Another selection criterion is the color of the attribute. It should fit well into the room. At the same time, the grass carpet can act as an accent in the interior, as well as support the color scheme of the room.

Beautiful ideas in the interior

Using a grass carpet, you can create a rather original design in your room. Here are some particularly successful examples of how you can fit this product into your room.

  • Decorate not only the floors in the room, but also one of the walls with carpet-grass. The interior can be complemented with wooden furniture from a natural massif and murals depicting nature.
  • On the terrace, if it is located in a high-rise building among the "stone jungle" of the metropolis, you can organize an island of nature with the help of green flooring. And in combination with artificial rattan furniture you will get a great option for relaxing, which is not afraid of moisture or temperature changes, and even in winter you will be pleased with a piece of summer.
  • A lawn from squares of different textures will not only help bring colors to the nursery, but will also be useful for micromassage of your baby’s legs while walking barefoot, without having to worry that the baby’s legs will freeze.

  • The moss rug in the graphite-colored bathroom will not only become a convenient accessory that will not allow your feet to touch the cold tile, but will also defuse the gloom of the interior. In this case, the moss can be both artificial and natural. And the humidity of the real vegetation will only be beneficial.
  • A carpet with different pile lengths, imitating the natural landscape, turning into murals matching the color on the wall, will help to create a fabulous road to the forest, which will help your baby not only sit comfortably on such a surface, but also provide ground for imagination.
  • A carpet in the form of a natural landscape with stones, a river and various types of vegetation is also applicable in the living room.

It will perfectly support the eco-style with natural wood furniture and a winter garden instead of a fireplace.

  • If you are not a fan of green, then you can use a carpet of the color of dried grass. This shade is closer to brown, and will not stand out from the rest of the room, but it will give all the softness of the long pile of such a product.
  • Carpet grass in the form of honeycombs, in the middle of the cells of which various materials with different colors and textures are located, will not only become useful for your baby’s feet, but will also allow you to play various games on it, developing your baby. For example, he can make him overcome obstacles by jumping over cells of the same color. In addition, such a product will add cheerfulness and color to the nursery.
  • The carpet resembling velvet is rather concise, but it will allow you to combine nature outside the window and the living room into one whole. At the same time, you can no longer use green accessories in the room, it will be supported by the view from the window.

For different rooms

Carpet grass needs frequent care. It is necessary to ensure that dust, microorganisms, all kinds of garbage do not accumulate in it. However, it is easy to remove all dirt and stains from it, which makes it an ideal option for any room in the house.

A small rectangular or oval rug with a hard pile can be laid in front of the front door. It will effectively remove dirt from the soles in wet weather, while moisture will not stagnate in the carpet material. It is very easy to care for it: it is enough to rinse the product with running water (with a certain frequency).

For use in the hallway, black and other dark models are most popular, since dirt on them is less noticeable, as well as signs of wear.

Such carpets are used in bathrooms, as they are made of moisture-resistant materials and are pleasant to the touch. Usually their pile is more delicate than the door options, and painted in brighter colors.

This type of flooring is also suitable for the kitchen. It is only necessary to say that the plastic used to make the carpet is a flammable material, it is easy to melt, therefore, it is not recommended to place it in the immediate vicinity of open sources of fire and electrical appliances.

An oval or rectangular rug will be more appropriate in the dining area, it will create a feeling of dining in nature. In addition, since the kitchens in most apartments do not please with their spaciousness, it is recommended to cover the floor with such a carpet only partially. Otherwise, there will be a feeling of clutter and inaccuracy.

Probably most often, rugs of this type can be found in living rooms. This is really a great design option for urban apartments.

Carpet grass recalls the warm seasonactive pastime. It’s nice to look at the green color of the coating. It is proved that it calms, but does not put to sleep, prompting to study, creativity and communication. People who stay in rooms where there is a lot of green for a long time, better cope with stress, are less prone to negative emotions and sleep problems.

This option is perfect for people who like to eat near the TV screen or have a stormy party, since removing stains from such a carpet is not difficult. In addition, you will certainly be able to impress guests with such a stylish design decision.

The use of "lawns" is a popular option for children. First of all, due to the numerous positive properties of such products. Secondly, the love for them is due to the functionality and ease of cleaning carpets. Thirdly, such models look very cozy, reminding an animated fairy tale.

However, not all parents are positive about such products. Nevertheless, the plastic from which carpets are made cannot be classified as environmentally friendly materials. Sometimes, in the process of staining the villi, lead is used, which is very harmful to humans. Low-quality plastic can be toxic. In addition, synthetic materials do not heat up and are highly electrified.

In adult bedrooms, such a rug can also be used because of its aesthetic functions. It fits perfectly into the eco-style interior and creates an additional emphasis on its ideological orientation. “Lawns” in hi-tech bedrooms look interesting: this is a kind of contrast between its emphasized technological effectiveness and aspiration for the future.

The balcony is often complemented by a coating of artificial grass. This is a great option for creating a lounge area in an urban setting. Thanks to this technique, the illusion of being in nature and being isolated from the city rush is created. It is not recommended to cover the entire floor with a carpet, it is better to leave a small border around the edges, so the room will seem larger.

How to choose?

When choosing a product for the home, you should always pay attention to the quality of the source material. Cheap products often have a pretty good appearance, but people who value their health are better guided by the principles of quality, even to the detriment of their wallet. It is worth paying attention to the smell of the rug: the less distinguishable, the higher the quality of the plastic.

Then you need to think about the texture of the pile. It is selected depending on the preferences of the buyer and his ability to care for the product. Short “weed” is easier to wash and vacuum.

The size of the carpet depends on the room where it is planned to be located, and the future functions of the carpet. Most often, small items for the hallway or bathroom are chosen - and larger carpets in the living room or bedroom.

Reviews on grass carpet are usually positive. Customers like the softness of such products, and associations with a forest lawn enhance their mood. Most often, these models are purchased for children.

Options in the interior

Below are examples of room decoration using grass carpets:

  • Rectangular grass carpet in the living room interior.

  • Artificial grass makes the interior more unusual.

  • The moss rug looks organically in a dark bathroom.

Use of carpets on terraces

Carpets grass look favorably on various terraces and balconies, even in the frosty winter recalling the warm summer. On the green cover you can put wicker country furniture, hammocks, deck chairs, white interior elements look just as beautiful.

Leave free space on the terrace, otherwise the room will seem cluttered and small.

Carpets-grass in children's rooms

Green grass carpets are also often used in nurseries. Since green is universally considered the most neutral, calm and balanced color, it is customary to lay it in rooms for babies: this contributes to the development of intelligence and forms a favorable emotional background. And also such carpets imitate the summer atmosphere, when children are most inclined to walk and frolic. This motivates them to play and interact with each other.

On a note! Plush animals, as well as soft pillows, stones and various houses for children are often used as decorative elements.

At the same time, the grass carpet for the house can be either large (it covers the entire area of ​​the room, then it is better to place more objects for children’s games on it), or it can be a separate space.

Carpet in a modern interior

A green carpet is like a small lawn in a city apartment. It pleasantly enlivens any dull interior, making it brighter and more welcoming. It is no coincidence that grass-colored carpets often lay in the premises of gray-white and coffee color schemes. This allows you to get rid of sugary monotony and make the room more spectacular.

Eco Style

In the last decade, eco-style has become a fairly common trend in modern interiors. The main feature of this style is the natural color scheme using natural materials: stone, glass, wood, etc. Also, this style implies the presence of various living plants in the apartment.

A green carpet under the grass is a great option for an eco-style room, because green is definitely a natural shade, which means it will fit perfectly into the general appearance of the room, you can see examples in the photo below:

To make the combination look more harmonious, put a large houseplant like a small palm tree near the carpet. Carefully choose a pot for the plant: families with children will use massive stone-like models that will not only fit into the IVF style, but will also not allow them to be knocked over with ease.

Carpet grass for garden

Sometimes there is simply no way to organize a real, solid lawn at the cottage for children's games: there are not enough nutrients in the soil, too shady or too sunny. Not to mention the fact that the constant trampling of grass will probably negatively affect its condition.

In this case, a carpet imitation of grass comes to the rescue. You just need to specify the required sizes, and special services will deliver the coating directly to your cottage. Such a move is convenient when organizing a football field for local kids, a golf course or just a convenient space for active events for children.

Small pet rugs

Often, small rugs are liked by dogs as bedding. Especially if they are soft and warm. Please your pet with a stylish and convenient gift.

Rugs, similar to the one shown in the photo above, can also be used to protect the floor: often chairs on wheels scratch the floor. Such a “lining” will save the tree from unwanted damage.

Combination of grass carpets with other carpets

Carpets in the form of grass, as a rule, take the color “green lawn” as a basis, less often, a more saturated “lime” or pale green-yellow. Bright "green lawn" goes well with rainbow colors, as well as shades of green. The original design solution - small round rugs of different colors, evenly spread across the room. Such an interior does not carry a specific function, but it looks great from the outside.

On a note! Carpets-grass - one of the most versatile and practical options for room decor.Modern and stylish, they bring to the gray series of everyday life a piece of the summer sun, brightness, natural freshness.

Such an element of the interior will decorate any room and will appeal to both adults and children. Treat yourself and loved ones with a cozy grass rug!

Green carpet in the design of the premises

In the house, he looks quite lively. You can imagine yourself in a small forest clearing, even while in an ordinary city apartment or house. Very often, a green carpet is used in gray-white or coffee rooms in order to give the atmosphere a slightly bright shade. This will undoubtedly allow you to get rid of the feeling of monotony and give your room some spectacular effect.

Speaking of the color itself - it is versatile enough for any room in the house. It has a very positive effect on the human psyche, and a carpet of such a coloring can be placed both in the living room and in the bedroom, kitchen or bathroom. It is only important to consider that for each of the rooms it is worth choosing the right shade, because it will not fit all rooms equally.

Shades can be conditionally divided as follows:

  • Living room, bedroom, hallway - darker and more saturated colors of green are suitable, which will be closer to the autumn palette. It can be: dark green, mustard, olive, swamp, khaki.
  • Bedroom, kitchen, bathroom - here it is best to choose a summer palette of colors. It should be quite juicy and bright colors, for example: the color of a green apple, young foliage, grassy, ​​pistachio.

The universal shades of the carpet will be a winter palette of colors, to which cold tones of green are conventionally attributed: deep green, turquoise, emerald. Similarly, you can use spring: the color of kiwi, avocado, mint or lime.

No matter what shade for the carpet you choose, the main rule will be its combination with the general interior of the room. It is necessary to achieve maximum harmony, and not so that the carpet comes out as a bright unnecessary spot among the general atmosphere.

Green carpet color combinations

In order to combine the overall interior with a green carpet, it’s worth a little understanding of the additional colors that can be used to design the premises.

    • Blue and green. Such a combination of grass and sky, so in the interior they should softly and smoothly connect.

    • Blue and green. Water and natural elements already collide here. They are quite contrasting and often use them in bright interior designs.

    • Brown and green. It can be associated with a tree, namely its trunk and foliage. In this combination, it is recommended to use light tones of cinnamon to soften the green color and not make it “heavy” for the perception of design.

      • Black and green. This is a kind of image of land and grass. Using such combinations, do not get too carried away with the black shade. It is best to use it solely as a small accent.

    • Red and green. Fairly successful combination of grass and flowers. With it, you can beautifully emphasize the green carpet and make a kind of roll call of contrasting colors.

    Rules for choosing a carpet

    Before you decide to buy a carpet, you need to take several steps to determine exactly what you are looking for.

    • First, we determine the size of the carpet and the room where we lay it. There are standard sizes, but you can make a carpet to order.
    • Before buying, you can roughly figure out how it will look in the room. To do this, take the adhesive tape and lay out the image of the carpet of those sizes that you prefer.
    • Decide on your preferred material. This can be a regular carpet or pile option.

    Green carpet grass in the interior of the apartment

    The so-called grass carpet, which has a high pile and really reminds us of grass, is gaining great popularity. The pile height can range from 3 to 7 centimeters.

    There are several options for this "weed", which is why it is classified by the following parameters:

    1. By softness or vice versa by the rigidity of the pile itself. Hard pile is usually purchased for small rugs in the hallway. The soft version of the pile is perfect for those rooms where you often go barefoot.
    2. Long or short fibers. There is no particular difference, everything will depend solely on the preferences of the buyer. Please note that the longer the pile, the more difficult it will be to care for it. In any case, such a carpet without problems can be cleaned with a vacuum cleaner.
    3. Material to the touch. Typically, grass carpet is made of polypropylene. But sometimes it happens that they can additionally add fibers of flax or other similar materials. Accordingly, such carpets will be slightly different to the touch.

    Caring for a grass carpet is not very difficult, but you will need to spend a little more time than usual. It will often need to be vacuumed, since dust will collect on the pile. It is recommended that you take it to a dry cleaner once every 1-2 months so that it is completely cleaned and restored to a good shape.

    It is not recommended to buy a carpet for animal lovers, otherwise you need to be prepared for it to collect all the wool.

    In general, we can say that care for such a carpet should be regular and thorough. Then he will keep his irresistible look and will amuse you day by day.

    Master class "Doormat in the form of grass"

    Everyone can go and buy such a rug in the store. But to make it with your own hands will still need to work hard.

    If you are ready to work, stock up on the following materials:

      • Wool yarn (at least five skeins).

    If you have unnecessary acrylic threads lying around in your house - they can also be used in work. But keep in mind the nuance that through their synthetics the product will come out a little slippery and in some cases it may be inconvenient to use.

    When using a fully woolen version, the rug may be biting and not suitable for use on bare feet. Therefore, the most ideal option would still be to use semi-woolen yarn, which will be optimal in future use and in the money budget.

    Working process

    So, we proceed directly to the work itself.

      1. To begin with, we will need to pull the threads from all the skeins at the same time. If you use different shades of green - this is just wonderful, because then the mat will turn out to be very interesting and exclusive.
      2. When you have stretched all the ends of the threads, fasten them and combine them into the base knit loop.
