Don't know if this post belong here but...

I want to put an area rug (rectangular) in my entrance way that is approx. 5.5" x 10". What size rug should I get? Just wondering b/c I'm thinking a 5" x 8" since that's a standard size...any suggestions?

Thanks in advance

actually, 5x7 is standard. 8x10 would be too big, 3x5 too small, so yep, 5x7 is about all you have to choose from, unless you want to go custom.

you could also go with a round one.
