Secure your Family with a Rug Pad

Saturday, September 29th, 2012

A rug pad is a material pad that you place under your area rugs throughout your home for a variety of reasons. You may have purchased the rug of your dreams and may have not known that a rug pad is essential to the rugs longevity. Buying rug pad to secure your family and the value of the rug is just as important as buying a quality rug. The rug pad can make or break your experience with the area rug you’ve purchased.

Rug pads can help in different ways. First, a rug pad protects the rug itself, adding more life to the rug. The rug pad absorbs the impact from people walking on the carpet, therefore reduces the wear and tear it receives on a daily basis. This is especially true if you allow people to wear shoes in your home. Shoes can be an area rugs worst nightmare. Shoes are much harder on the fibers of a rug in comparison to bare feet. A rug pad can help reduce the chances of wearing the carpet earlier than expected.

Secondly, the rug pad adds comfort to your area rugs. If the area rug is placed on a hard floor such as tile, it could hurt your back after years of walking on it. A rug pad creates a cushion under the rug, making it more comfortable to walk on. If you have little kids or older people living your home, the rug pad can make it comfortable for young or old feet to walk on the rug.

Create Variety in Your Home

Wednesday, September 26th, 2012

You want your home to look current and up to date with the season’s styles.  A great way to accomplish this is to add an area rug. This is an inexpensive way to add style to your home. Tip: find a discount style and avoid paying full price. An area rug is a simple way to really spruce up your home and stay current with the latest home trends!

Have you considered seasonal decorating?  A great way to keep your living space looking finished is to add a seasonal theme. In the spring, a floral rug could do just the trick – or in the holiday season consider a rich red and green look. If you change rugs seasonally, your room will always look new and fresh.  It is a great way to really get into the different holiday seasons, and make a home feel vibrant and festive.

If you aren’t into switching your decorating themes with the seasons, consider changing between a modern look and a more traditional look.  A discount area rug can also be used to do this! Area rugs provide so much variety and style – you could easily accomplish a new look whether it be contemporary, country, or traditional. Especially if your living space is already adorned with classic or neutral furniture, changing the floor rug will create a brand new look.

Natural area rugs are a fabulous way to accessorize. In addition to being simple and inexpensive, the variety they can provide is a huge bonus! The next time you are looking to change up a living space, remember that discount area rugs are a great option.

Rugs Can be Kind to the Environment Too

Thursday, September 20th, 2012

There is undeniably a “green” trend that has become popular in recent years. Consequently, environmentally friendly home accessories are becoming a bigger priority.  Natural area rugs are a great and easy way to help the environment and redecorate your home!

Eco-friendly rugs are cost effective in the long run. Most eco-friendly rugs are composed of sustainable materials such as wool, bamboo, and jute. These natural materials will ensure that your eco-friendly rug is long lasting!

Wool is absolutely the most eco-friendly and sustainable material for rugs. This is because wool is a naturally renewable resource (as sheeps grow wool year round). Consequently, using wool to make a rug doesn’t have a significant effect on the environment.  Wool is long- lasting, visually charming, and can compliment a variety of decors – making it the perfect way to enhance the eco-friendliness of your home.

There are several benefits to jute eco-friendly rugs and bamboo rugs. For example, jute is the softest of all the natural fibers. Additionally, it is an inexpensive natural fiber! Like the other sustainable materials used to make rugs, jute is also long lasting. Bamboo is also an important option to consider. A bamboo rug can add texture and character to brighten up a room.

The most important thing to research when considering an eco-friendly rug is the materials that were used to form the rug.  Keep in mind that ideally your rug will utilize materials that have a small effect on the environment and are additionally a natural renewable resource. If you choose a rug that fit this criteria, you will definitely be helping out the environment!

Preserving the Beauty of a Jute Rug

Friday, September 7th, 2012

Jute rugs are delicate and beautiful pieces of art. These types of rugs compliment a variety of décor styles, and could possibly enhance the furniture you already have! These rugs are high – fashion and high quality. Most jute rugs are hand made. They are composed from a straw like fiber. Consequently, preserving a jute rug requires diligent care. Here are a few tips to ensure that the beauty of your jute rug is preserved.

Jute rugs must be vacuumed on a regular basis. When vacuuming, make sure that you get both sides of the jug.  It may be a good idea to keep your jute rug out of high traffic areas. If your jute rug does get a stain, you should use mild soap and water to work the stain out. Test your cleanser first on an inconspicuous portion of the rug to ensure that the cleanser is not too strong.  A soft bristle brush or a sponge should be used to get the stain out. Be sure to use very gentle motions against the jute rug.

As long as you keep your jute rug clean, these rugs will remain extremely strong and durable. Not to mention, their beauty will last for ages as well.

Jute rugs can be purchased in several shapes and styles. The jute rugs that are sold before they are dyed retain some of their natural tan color (which is the color of the Jute plant!). Jute rugs are also available in patterns like stripes and chevrons.

Jute rugs can often be found in smaller boutiques and online. Remember jute rugs are considered pieces of art, so they can also be hung up on a wall to add texture to the room!
