We’ve previously hunted out cheap but expensive-looking accents for your bedroom, your kitchen, the nursery, and more. Now it’s time to drill into the specifics and focus on cheap but expensive-looking rugs. Whether you’re zhushing up your living room or want something more durable for indoor/outdoor use, you’re in luck. While most of these rugs are available on Amazon, we’ve found some options elsewhere, too, for those who like to shop around. Below, we’ve found everything from a classic Persian-style rug to a modern circular jute option. To make price comparison easy, we’ve listed the prices of each rug in a small-to-medium size, but many of the styles are available in a variety of shapes and sizes (including round rugs and lengthy runners.)
