Just like you'd lay out your living room, placing an outdoor rug by your seating is the prefect addition to outdoor living room ideas zoning your space to make it more intimate. Patios can often look a little cold and stark, so adding an inexpensive rug is a great budget patio idea. You could even use an additional rug to hang from a tired looking fence or wall, a bit like a wall hanging or tapestry, which is another great outdoor wall decor idea.
Investing in an outdoor rug is also a great way to protect your lawn, decking or patio from spilt food that could stain, like ketchup-covered sausages or mustard-topped burgers. With it's waterproof fibres, the Aldi outdoor rug is easy to wipe clean and can even be lightly hosed down if sticky soft drinks get dropped by over-excited little ones.
