Giving your hardwood floors a country feel

When you put in new wooden floors , are you suppose to place throw rugs or will that just take away the idea?

I would get area rugs, and here is why: Area rugs will protect your floor.  They will also add a real sense of style to your room, so you can change up your decor by getting a different rug for each room.  Area rugs will also create the illusion of different spaces in large, open floor plans.

An example would be in your kitchen. I've always felt that a dining table needs something under it to really define your kitchen when you have wooden floors.  A braided area rug says "Country Kitchen".  A Cotton Rug in front of your sink and by your kitchen door goes with the country theme and protects the floor.  Country is just an example, as you could do a contemporary area rug under your dining room table as well.

Try adding an area rug to one of your rooms and see how it instantly warms up the space.
