Where To Purchase
Depending on the exact affect you are planning to go for, and depending on your budget, you can go with one of two types of rustic rugs. There are the used rugs, which because of their age give more of an older look, and then there are the rugs that look older and such but are brand new in the store. Either way, if you are looking to get some good-sized rustic rugs, be prepared to spend a few hundred each, even if they are used. Sometimes, believe it or not, the older the rugs are, the more they cost because of the look they have achieved throughout the years and what they will add to someone's home.
A lot of your old worn in rugs can be found at antique shops, auctions, or even in your local newspaper. These rugs are heavy so be prepared to have someone with you and watch out for the price tag. Even though they look thin, they are old and used, and they are just rugs, you are going to be paying a pretty penny for those rustic rugs. You can also purchase brand new rustic rugs that are just rustic looking versus being rustic but those will still cost you a few hundred although depending on the style of your home, you may be better off with the newer looking rustic rugs then the worn in look.
