Answer
What size rug for a queen bed?
An 8 × 10 ft rug, turned crosswise under the lower two-thirds of a queen bed, leaves rug showing on both sides. For the whole bed on the rug, choose 9 × 12 ft.
Rug size by bed
| Bed | Under lower two-thirds | Whole bed on the rug |
|---|---|---|
| Twin | 5 × 8 ft | 8 × 10 ft |
| Full | 6 × 9 ft | 9 × 12 ft |
| Queen | 8 × 10 ft | 9 × 12 ft |
| King | 9 × 12 ft | 9 × 12 ft |
| California king | 9 × 12 ft | 9 × 12 ft |
Or use runners
Two runners (about 2.5 × 8 ft) along each side of the bed work well in small bedrooms or with wall-to-wall carpet.
