Island Theme Braided Rugs For Your Floor

Island theme braided rugs are available in two different styles, one is a braided rug that has an island or pirate motif and is ideal for children’s bedroom décor. And the other are the many island theme braided rugs that have a tropical feeling, with bamboo motifs, or floral patterns, or fish and seascapes or sunsets that bring a touch of the Caribbean or Hawaii to your floor.

As a rule, braided rugs can be dyed or braided with multiple strands of different colored fabric or yarn, but if you want an island theme it may have been printed on if it’s very detailed, otherwise it will just give a tropical feeling due to the colors, like sandy tones with blue and yellows and oranges with a touch of red, things that give the illusion of island paradise in a braided rug.

Island Theme Braided Rugs from the Charleston Collection

One of the most beautiful rugs is one that is available from JC Penny, and it’s in the Charleston Collection and called the Seashell Braid Rug. It comes in many sized starting at just under $70 and going up to about $450 for the largest living room area rugs. It has a lovely seashell motif that is in keeping with any island décor, and is perfect for a stone floor or even a covered patio deck. The colors are sandy tones with earthy accents. Unfortunately it’s dyed polyester and not a wool area rug, but it is a fun piece to use for decorating.

Cape Cod Braided Rugs

For something really different try a braided rug with a less tropical island theme like one from Cape cod, still very Sea oriented, but with lighthouses, seagulls and other Cape Cod traditional designs. These rugs are all hand braided, and cost about $165 and are all round, about 3 feet around. You can have your very own island theme braided rugs custom made by contacting the Cape Cod Braided Rug Company. They also have a shop online, where you can choose colors and mix and match lots of styles and use some of their ideas and add your own touch. They will make rugs up to 16 feet.

These soft rugs are ideal for children’s rooms or even for high traffic areas or even front entranceways and decks because they are all wool area rugs that are really durable, each one handmade with great care.
