Area rug under dining room table?
We are having new hardwood floors put in our dining and living rooms. Should we put an area rug under the dining room table?
Hi there that sounds about the size of my living room and I just ordered a rug that is 5x7. Our sofa is 6 feet so the rug will span that plus the 5 feet gives us plenty of room for a coffee table in the middle of it without covering the whole rug up. Hope that helps!

These are the standard rug sizes:
"Standard Rug Sizes. The most common sizes are: 2′ x 3′, 2′ x 4′, 3′ x 5′, 4′ x 6′, 5′ x 8′ and 6′ x 9′. Also widely used are the following: 7′ x 10′, 8′ x 10′, 9′ x 12′, 10′ x 13′, 10′ x 14′ and 12′ x 15′. " You could do the 13' X 10' and have only 1 foot of floor visible if that is what you like or if you want the rug to accent the room and not serve as a carpet, you could use a 6' X 9' and have 4' and 5' of your floor visible. Center the rug so it is in front of the couch and under the chair and small table. http://www.dimensionsinfo.com/rug-sizes/
I've always been told that a rug should be large enough to have 12-18 inches of floor showing all around the edges. The front feet of your sofa & chair should be on the rug. An 8x10 rug will allow 18 inches of floor to show all the way around. A 9x12 will allow 12 inches on the 2 "short" sides & 6 inches on the 2 "long" sides. This will give you more of a "carpet" look. Up to you.
9x11 should do ,,if this is too costly get two 5x7 and duct tape them together on the back, then u have a 7x10 that will work too
