Layering a vintage rug on top of a jute rug is a great way to add texture, warmth, and personality to your space. Here are some reasons why this has become such a big trend:

Adds texture and warmth: Jute rugs are a great base for layering because they add texture and warmth to a room. Layering a vintage rug on top of a jute rug adds another layer of texture and warmth and gives the space a cozy and inviting feel.

Creates a focal point: A vintage rug can be a statement piece and create a focal point in a room. By layering, you can draw attention to the rug and create a visually interesting focal point in the space.

Fills more space: By layering a smaller vintage rug on top of a larger jute rug, you can effectively fill more space in your room. This means that you can still incorporate a vintage rug that may be too small for the size of your room, since the larger jute rug will provide the necessary filling to make the space feel complete.

When it comes to choosing the size of the vintage rug, you'll want to choose a rug that is slightly smaller than the jute rug. This will allow the edges of the jute rug to show and create a layered look that is visually appealing. A good rule of thumb is to allow at least 1 foot of the jute rug to show underneath on each side.

Overall, layering vintage rugs on top of a jute rug is a great way to add warmth and character to your space. With a little bit of creativity and planning, you can create a layered, intentional look that is both stylish and functional.
