Custom Rugs With Your Photo, Logo or Design
A custom rug carries your photo, logo, pattern or words across its whole surface, and this shelf covers every floor in a home rather than one rug in many sizes. For a living room or a bedroom there are area rugs, a round rug and a washable rug. For the front door there is a coir doormat and a felt-like polyester doormat, ready for a family name, a house number or a greeting. An outdoor rug covers a patio or a porch, a bath mat and a three-piece bath mat set dress the bathroom, and a heavy duty floor mat takes the traffic of a busy kitchen or entryway. Prices run € 19,24–€ 69,67 depending on the style. A rug suits a housewarming gift, a pet portrait beside the sofa, a business logo at the entrance or a matching bathroom. Upload one file, place it on the rug or mat, and check the preview before you pay. Because the design fills the surface, a full-bleed photo or a repeating pattern works better than a small logo floating in empty space.

Area rug, doormat, bath mat or outdoor rug
Start with the floor. Area rugs and the round rug sit inside a room, where a full photograph, a pet portrait or an all-over pattern has space to read. The washable rugs are the ones named for washing, which makes them the practical choice for a nursery, a kitchen or a home with pets.
At the door, a doormat is read from a step away, so a family name, a house number or a short greeting works better than a detailed picture. The outdoor rug is the style named for use outside. In the bathroom, choose a single bath mat or the three-piece bath mat set, and for a hard-working spot by the sink or the back door, the heavy duty floor mat.
How to design artwork for a printed rug
The colour on these rugs and mats is taken into the surface rather than laid on top of it, so the design covers the piece from edge to edge. Run backgrounds all the way out so nothing lands short, and keep names and faces a little way in from the edge, because placement can shift slightly from piece to piece and a bath mat has a bound edge.
White in your artwork adds no colour, so it shows as the rug's own base, and nothing comes out lighter than that base. Design on a light background, and on the round rug keep everything important inside the circle. The guide to full-coverage colour on fabric and hard goods covers bleed, colour behaviour and placement in more depth.
Matching a rug with the rest of the room
A rug can anchor a matching set. A throw pillow or a blanket can carry the same photograph for the sofa, a canvas print takes it to the wall, and towels finish a bathroom around a printed bath mat. By the front door, a sign can repeat the family name from the doormat.
Custom Rugs With Your Photo, Logo or Design — common questions
- What is the difference between a custom doormat and a custom area rug?
- A doormat sits at an entrance and is read from a step away, so short text such as a family name, a house number or a greeting reads best on it. An area rug covers floor space inside a room, where a full photograph or a repeating pattern has room to work.
- Can a custom rug be used outdoors?
- The outdoor rug is the style on this shelf named for outdoor use, so it is the one to choose for a patio, a porch or a balcony. The coir and felt-like polyester doormats are also made for use outside; for any other rug or mat here, check that piece's own product page before leaving it outside.
- Which custom rug is washable?
- The washable rugs are the styles named for washing, and each is machine washable, which makes them the practical choice for a kitchen, a nursery or a home with pets. Care for the other rugs and mats is listed on each piece's own product page.
- Will white in my design come out white on a custom rug?
- Not as an added colour. The colour on these rugs is taken into the surface, so white areas in your artwork add nothing and show the rug's own base, and no colour can come out lighter than that base. Treat white as the material showing through and design on a light background.
- How should a photo be placed on a round rug?
- Keep faces, names and logos inside the circle with a margin from the edge, and let the background run out to the rim. The preview shows the round rug with your design on it before you pay, so you can move the photo until nothing important is cut off.
- Are custom bath mats on the rug shelf or the towel shelf?
- Bath mats are on the rug shelf: a single bath mat and a three-piece bath mat set, both carrying your own design. Towels have a shelf of their own, which makes it easy to match a mat and a towel with one photo or monogram.
