There is a running joke in the office that I have an obsession with runners, so I couldn’t WAIT to share a few of my favorite sources with you all. It’s no secret that runners are critical in front of kitchen sinks (in my opinion), but I also love using them in front of double vanities and long hallways. Although I tend to lean toward the vintage materials because it hides stains so well I also love a pretty jute at the end of a bed for example. And the best part? Runners don’t need to be pricey to be good.
I’ve listed some budget friendly styles as well as splurge, but nothing over the top. My absolute favorite place to shop for runners is Etsy. The global expanse of vendors make searching for the perfect one a super fun shopping hunt. The only catch is that they’re usually one of a kind so my motto is buy it and try it!
Typically you should be able to fit a 3’ wide runner in front of the kitchen sink and I prefer the length to be as long as the kitchen island. So when searching for the perfect size you can usually go with a 3×8 to 3×10 depending on your space! Enjoy!
