I'm looking for a nice rug for Nugget's room. But I'm finding it hard to find kids rooms rugs on Australian sites (I haven't had a chance to leave the house in hunt yet...) does anyone know where I can look?

I'm not looking for playmats as such, just nice rugs/mats for the nursery floor :)

Ta!

Ikea have a few as well and you can buy them online. Not too expensive either.....

I bought a pretty little rug for Elise at Brisbane Bubs in the homemaker centre in the Valley. They had a few different types there, also there were a few downstairs in the rug shop. Also, I bought some small round pink rugs for $25 in Ikea

That's the eBay store (http://stores.ebay.com.au/BugRugs-Floor-Coverings-for-Kids) :) only 5 there at the moment but they've been added to "my favourite sellers" :)

There are some gorgeous kids rugs places in america... I saw one and it said it was done by hand so then I stroked my chin and went "I could do some Rug Hooking.. I've done it before."
But once again, I try to google... and then I give up and realise it's a stupid idea anyway :laughing:

I am getting a sheepskin for the floor of my nursery from IKEA, they are only $65 I think. I dont have a lot of floorspace after all the furniture so this is perfect for me :thumbsup: I just love that teddy rug from Bugrugs though!

Hi Seekrit
If you don't need anything esp childish, a great cheap way to get a rug is to buy a carpet off cut.

I got one for our nursery for 50$ from a carpet place and then took it to an overlocker to cut it squre and edge it - total cost $75 for a 2 x 3 m rug. The smaller you want your rug, the more you'll have to choose from.

Cheers
