Order your personalised rug now in time for Christmas

Christmas will be here sooner than you think and it's never too early to start planning, especially if you are thinking of a personalised gift for your children, grandchildren, nephews or nieces.   

Personalising a child’s room is very popular.  From a name plate on the door to a large letter on a shelf, individual accessories will stand the test of time which is why personalised rugs are also some of our best sellers.  

Customers can add any name to our select rug collection and the names, which can be a first name, family name or even a nick name, can be added in a straight line or a semi-circle and will make a unique gift for a nursery, kids or teenager's room.   Personalised rugs are also a good idea if you have children sharing a bedroom as they can help mark out ‘territory’ and hopefully stop sibling arguments. 

And the reason we are raising the topic of Christmas in September is because personalised kids rugs can take between 10 - 14 weeks to make and so you need to order now to get them delivered in time for Christmas. 

Of course, you may not want to personalise your kids rugs and if this is the case we have lots of fabulous kids designs available in stock.  From numbers to cars - from footballs to boats - from fairies to flowers and from butterflies to princesses - you are sure to find a design that suits your little one.

Quality is obviously important and our rugs are 100% wool, handmade in India and are exclusive to FrithRugs.http://frithrugs.co.uk/  Our stock rugs are available as a 1.22m x .76m sized rug and retail at £79.  Our personalised rugs start from £79.00 for a 0.90 x 0.60m rug. 

How do decorate a child's bedroom

Has your daughter fallen in love the with the new #beautyandthebeast film?

Chances are she will want you to spend a fortune on redecorating her bedroom with the theme - but read this blog for ideas on how to decorate a child's room that grows with her.

When planning or decorating a child’s room or nursery, it’s easy to get carried away – but it’s worth remembering that what your five-year-old loves now, the eight-year-old version will probably hate.  So, don’t spend too much money – instead opt for an overall design that can grow with them and theme with accessories such as rugs, bedding and curtains.

On the floor

For practical reasons hardwood floors are probably the best choice for your kid’s room and are much easier to keep clean than carpet. However, they can be quite boring and of course, quite hard!  Adding a colourful rug will bring the floor to life and will provide soft, warmer areas for your child to play.  You can also use your rug as the basis for a colour scheme for the entire room.

If you have siblings that share a room, rugs are a great way to help zone specific areas, better still get your rug personalised and that should help avoid any arguments.

A new rug can quickly and easily help transform a room and so when your daughter grows tired of one colour or theme, you can easily introduce another.

On the bed

With the release of a new kid’s film or TV character it’s likely you will find bedding merchandise.  This is another easy win which allows your daughter to get her longed-for Disney characters but without breaking the bank.  Once she moves on to another character or theme, changing the bedding along with the rug will give the room a whole new look.

On the walls

It’s more sensible to paint rather than wallpaper – when your girl gets tired of her Disney character wallpaper you will have to strip it – whereas when she gets tired of her baby pink colour scheme, you just need to add another coat of emulsion in a different colour.  If you would like to personalise the wall you can paint your own feature wall or designate a space for their own artwork to be displayed.  You can also buy some fabulous wall stickers which could work with a particular theme and then can be removed when your daughter has outgrown it.

The most important rule when decorating a child’s room is to remember to be flexible. Our children grow up quickly and their tastes can change just as fast.

Festive bedroom make over

Decorating a room for Christmas doesn't have to begin and end with the lounge or dining room.  Making a bedroom feel festive is great fun - especially a child's room.

First of all try to declutter - chances are there will be new toys coming into the room so this is a really good time of year to get rid of old toys they no longer play with.  Charity shops or even food banks would love your old toys.  

You could ask your children to make their own paper chains and decorations that you can pin on the ceiling or around their room and if they get their own Christmas cards from school - you can string them up on the walls.  Fairy lights are a must and you can can also buy miniature Christmas trees that you can stand on a desk or dressing table.

Many children get new pyjamas at Christmas and so how about some new bedding and a new rug to help with the festive make over.

At this time of year, budgets are already stretched but with our kids rugs available from £79 they are an affordable treat for most families.  And with dozens of designs to choose from, you are sure to find something your kids will love.

If you have children that share a bedroom, a rug is a great way to zone a room and clearly mark out territory – even more important when there are lots of shiny new toys and games on the way!
