3x5

Your Guide to the Perfect 3x5 Rug 

A 3-foot by 5-foot rug is the perfect accent piece for defining small zones and connecting spaces without overwhelming them. It fits beautifully beneath a bench in the entryway, under a side table in the living room or in the kitchen corner where you prepare meals. 

At Carpet & Tile Mart, we make it easy to find the right 3x5 rug for your home, with unbeatable value, expert advice and a vast selection in-store and online.

Where Are the Best Spots to Use 3x5 Area Rugs?

A 3x5 area rug offers endless possibilities, whether you want to highlight a cozy reading nook or add comfort to your entryway:

• Define your living room space: A 3x5 rug is ideal for creating a defined seating area in your living room. Place it under a coffee table or accent chair to enhance the space and add a pop of color or texture. It’s the perfect addition to highlight your favorite furniture and pull the room together.
• Add comfort to your bedroom: Place a 3x5 rug at the foot of your bed or beside it for a cozy feel every morning. This size is perfect for twin or full beds, and layering it over a larger area rug can add depth and style to your bedroom.
• Create a stylish vibe in entryways and hallways: A 3x5 entry rug is just the right size to greet guests and protect your floors from dirt and wear. Washable rugs and durable materials are key for high-traffic areas, ensuring your rug maintains its color for years. 
• Spruce up an outdoor lounge area: A 3x5 outdoor rug can transform an outdoor sitting area, dress up a small balcony or add a pop of style to a poolside bar.
• Connect transition spaces: Open floor plans can blur the lines between rooms. A 3x5 rug acts as a visual marker, gently separating zones like the passage between your living and dining areas while tying your decor together.

What Styles of 3x5 Rugs Do We Carry?

At Carpet & Tile Mart, you’ll find 3x5 rugs in vibrant colors and patterns for a playful, free-spirited vibe. Clean lines, geometric patterns and solid colors offer a sleek, contemporary look while traditional Persian designs add timeless elegance. Choose neutral tones like beige, ivory or gray for versatility, or go bold to create a focal point. 

Pair your 3x5 rug with similarly scaled furniture for a balanced look. Use a rug pad to prevent slipping and add extra comfort. For added depth, try layering your 3x5 area rug over a larger flatweave or jute rug.

A 3x5 rug is space-efficient and layout-friendly for small spaces, such as compact living areas and bedrooms. The piece accentuates small entryways, under desks, nooks or bedside tables.
