Set the Mood Outdoors: Pick the Right Rug Colour for Your Camping Trip


Tents, chairs, and sleeping bags are probably the first things that come to mind when organizing your next camping trip. However, one underappreciated necessity that can improve the comfort and style of your trip is your camping rug.  

 
We at Green Decore are aware of how colour affects mood, even in the natural world. Because of this, our environmentally friendly camping rugs are available in a variety of thoughtfully chosen hues that enhance your outdoor setting while also promoting your wellbeing via color psychology.  
 
Let's examine how various rug colors can change the atmosphere of your camping trip and offer advice on selecting the ideal shade to go with your equipment and surroundings. 

Why Colour Psychology Matters — Even at the Campsite 

Colour psychology is the study of how colours influence human emotions and behaviour. It’s widely used in branding and home interiors, but it’s just as powerful when applied to your outdoor decor — especially your camping space. 

The right rug colour can: 

  • Create a calming or energising mood 

  • Add warmth or cool tones to your setup 

  • Help gear stand out or blend with nature 

  • Enhance the aesthetic for social media photos 

Whether you're relaxing by the lake or setting up for a family campout in the woods, your rug’s colour sets the tone for your trip. 

Green Decore Rugs: Sustainable and Stylish 

All of Green Decore’s outdoor camping rugs are made from recycled plastic (polypropylene straw), making them a sustainable and practical choice. Benefits include: 

  • Lightweight & portable 

  • Waterproof & weather-resistant 

  • Easy to clean (just shake or hose off) 

  • Reversible for two-in-one styling 

  • Stake-friendly with corner loops 

Now, let’s explore how to use colour to craft your perfect camping mood. 

 

What Each Rug Colour Means for Your Camping Experience 

1. Regatta Blue & White 

Mood: Peaceful | Calm | Reflective 

Blue is calming, promotes mental clarity, and mimics natural elements like the sky and water. 
Perfect for: 

  • Forest or lakeside retreats 

  • Quiet mornings with a book 

  • Meditating or journaling outdoors 

Try: Bliss Outdoor Rug – Regatta Blue/White 

2. Grey & White 

Mood: Minimal | Clean | Balanced 

Grey is neutral, sophisticated, and blends well with any setting — a great backdrop for your colourful gear. 
Perfect for: 

  • Modern camping setups 

  • Desert or gravel landscapes 

  • Minimalist, tidy layouts 

Try: Bliss Outdoor Rug – Grey/White 

How to Match Your Rug with the Rest of Your Gear 

To create a seamless look that supports your mood, consider the following tips: 

  • Tents & Chairs: Match or contrast with your rug colour 

  • Lighting: Use warm-toned lights with yellow or ochre rugs 

  • Cushions: Add accent colours that support the vibe (e.g., greens for calm, reds for energy) 

  • Setting: Use green in forests, blue near water, neutrals in deserts or rocky terrain 

 

Bonus: Flip the Rug to Change the Mood 

Most Green Decore camping rugs are reversible, giving you two colour options in one. 

  • Light side up for bright mornings 

  • Dark side up for cosy evenings 

This flexibility lets you switch the mood with the weather, time of day, or your current energy.
