A natural area rug is a rug that is made out of all natural materials, whether created by a machine or by hand. The materials that are used to create the natural area rug can be any number of different items, although some items are much more common than others. It is not difficult to find these types of rugs today because of the large focus on going green across the nation and many retailers will carry natural products along with their traditional products in order to satisfy the needs of a wide range of consumers.

Cotton Area Rugs

One of the most common materials used to create a natural area rug is cotton, which has been used to create many different types of natural products throughout the years. Cotton is one of the softest and sturdiest rug materials in the world and rugs that are created from natural cotton do not wear out easily or become damaged with routine use. A natural area rug made out of cotton is still considered to be natural when dyed with other natural products to add some color to the rug material.

Some cotton area rug designs are made so skillfully that they resemble an oriental area rug that could cost hundreds of dollars. Natural area rug designs made out of cotton are generally not very expensive because cotton is a fairly easy material to obtain and the cotton does not require a great deal of labor to prepare it for being woven into an area rug. A natural area rug made out of cotton is one of the easiest types of rugs to find because many retailers carry them.

Hemp Area Rugs

A natural area rug that is made out of hemp fibers is another popular choice for people to place in their homes. The hemp fibers are typically spun together and woven into a thick rug style that is very durable. Because the fibers of the plant are so tough and sturdy, a natural area rug made from this material can last for a long period of time and remain looking new under heavy foot traffic and even unusual circumstances.

Some people do not like the look of a natural area rug that is made from hemp fibers because they look like they have been woven out of a thick rope that has been coiled into a rug shape and tacked together. Home décor's that have a great deal to do with nature and the outdoors will find that a natural area rug made out of hemp fibers blends right into the décor of the room and makes the room look more complete when it comes to the style of the room. These natural area rug designs can be found at a limited number of retailers because of the misconceptions about hemp fibers that can be found in a significant percentage of the population.
