7 Affordable Outdoor Rugs to Add to Your Patio, Porch or Deck

You’re familiar with adding a rug to your bedroom for an extra pop of color or to your living room to add texture, but what about in the backyard or on the balcony? Outdoor rugs are made of a material called propylene, which is basically a soft, woven plastic that’s designed to be tough enough to repel stains and liquids. They can also be used inside, once the summer is over. Read on for seven gorgeous (and affordable) outdoor rug options.

1. Ruggable Outdoor Filifer Palm Green Rug (2’5 x 7’)

The core tenets of this innovative rug brand are that “spills happen,” “kids will be kids” and “pets are messy.” And so, Ruggable devised a two-part system (one-part rug pad, one-part rug cover) to make life easier. The thin top layer (made of a shockingly attractive polyester) can be removed and thrown in the washer for easy cleanup. Even better, they’re available at an affordable price point, so you can invest in an 8' x 10' without breaking the bank.
