Orange is a difficult color to use in home decor. The biggest source of orange fiber is recycled t shirts, and those garments are not known for their subletly. I have a substantial stash of fluorescent orange from a child’s soccer uniforms and no idea at all of how to use it. That said, the general category of “orange” also encompasses the ever-useful rusts, peaches and coral. Unfortunately, men’s clothes are the largest source of “rust” tones, and men hang on to their clothing much longer than women do.
Sigh. We cope.
Here are some orange rugs that have found homes:
Any of these can be used as starting points for a rug made to your specifications. However, because the rugs are made from recycled tshirts (among other fabrics), they can never be exactly duplicated.
