Desert Rainbow Nursery Area Rug

Scalloped rainbows in olive, ochre, rust and caramel, stacked in rows across a warm cream ground with small seed clusters filling the gaps, printed edge to edge on a low-pile nursery rug.

The rug is where the whole first year actually happens: tummy time, first rolls, the pile of soft toys that never quite gets put away. It is also the largest block of pattern in the room after the crib, which makes it the piece that sets the palette everything else answers to.

Part of our Desert Rainbow nursery collection, printed from the same artwork as the crib sheet, changing pad cover, minky blanket, hooded towel, round rug and decorative pillow.

Soft chenille polyester

Comfortable underfoot and durable enough for daily floor play.

Non-slip backing

Grips the floor so it stays put once a baby starts crawling and pulling up. On very smooth floors, a separate rug pad adds extra hold.

Machine washable

The single most useful feature a rug in a baby room can have.

Available in several sizes — choose from the options above.

Choosing a size: aim for a rug that extends at least 18" beyond the crib on the open sides. In small nurseries a 48" to 60" rug is usually enough; larger rooms suit 72" × 48" or more.

Ordering for a due date or shower? Order earlier than you think you need to. Made-to-order timelines are reliable but not instant, and carrier delays are outside our control.

Returns. Every piece is printed to order. Unused, unwashed items can be exchanged within 30 days. If something arrives faulty or misprinted, we replace it or refund you.
