What's your style?




Silly question - but do you really know what your style is when it comes to home interiors?  We are inundated with images and advice on how to ‘dress’ and decorate our home – but sometimes this advice can be overwhelming. 

If you are planning on updating a room for the new season – before you start, ask a few questions about what your style actually is.  It’s all very well trying to replicate that image in a glossy magazine – but will it suit you?

Firstly, who lives in your home?  If you are a family with a dog – be honest, those clean, sleek minimal lines in shades of white are really not going to work for you.  However, comfortable furnishings and warm colors probably would.
If you are single person with the occasional visitor, you probably won’t need lots of storage and can afford to have some expensive things like a traditonal rug on display.
Ask what your family is interested in?  Love colour?  Like animals? Prefer pattern to plain?  What are your favourite colours?  Do you like natural fabrics?  How much artwork to you have on your walls?  How much TV do you watch or do you like to curl up with a good book?

Throw away the magazines, forget Pinterest and chat to the people who share your home and find a style that’s right for you – yours!

New outlet for Shrewsbury

FrithRugs has opened a new outlet on Vanguard Park in Shrewsbury.   

Andrew Frith said: “Shrewsbury offers a great location with a good transport infrastructure. FrithRugs will occupy a prominent position on the trade park which offers access to the A49 and A5 Shrewsbury Bypass.”


The Vanguard Park site is a new business model for us designed to provide a more intimate shopping experience. The site offers an impressive 4,000 sq. ft filled with rugs and large rugs, and is the second in a number of similar sized outlets which we hope to open across the country.

Andrew said:  “While much of our business comes from our online offering at www.frithrugs.co.uk customers still enjoy the overall retail shopping experience which we want to provide in smaller merchandising environments.  We noticed a lot of customers were travelling to our Staffordshire store from the Telford and Shrewsbury area and this outlet is much more convenient for them.”

We are enjoying considerable expansion and last year opened a similar new outlet in Warrington as well as two franchises in Canterbury and the Isle of Man.  We plan to open a new outlet in Bristol later this year.  Consumers are continuing to invest in their homes and  home décor and accessories remain a relatively inexpensive way to give rooms a fresh new look.

FrithRugs offers thousands of rugs in all shapes, sizes and colours and as well as offering exclusively designed contemporary rugs and we are renowned for our staggering choice of traditional rugs from China, Persia, India and Pakistan. We  also offers a bespoke rug service which allows consumers and businesses to design their own individual rugs. 


The store is open for business from Mon - Sat: 10am - 5pm and Sun: 10am - 4pm.
