While it might sound strange to place a rug in a kitchen, since I added a jute runner to my cooking space, I’ve never been more convinced of the quiet power of floor coverings.
Whether it’s a simple square mat to elevate your stove area or a larger runner to warm up your tiled floor, kitchen rugs come in many shapes and sizes, but Martha Stewart’s versatile line is the best place to start. With something for every space, it’s hard to resist the warm, textural feel of a rug in a kitchen – particularly when it’s been lovingly designed by homemaking expert Martha Stewart.
