Porch Floors | Porch Flooring

Architects are now using tile, cement and hardwood for the floors of porches. More difficult than the construction of the floor, however, is the problem of how to cover it. Crex and other fiber rugs and rush and corn mats are always useful products and inexpensive for porch flooring. A porch rug bears hard wear both from use and from the weather, and it pays to buy a durable make. An oval, natural colored rush rug with a line of black makes an artistic and suitable floor covering. Fiber rugs of rather thick weave come in an assortment of colors to match up with any porch color scheme.

Using a rush rug as center, paint the floor border, where there is not much wear, in diamonds or small squares of contrasting colors.
