1. How to remove folds and curls?

After unfurling your new arrived rug, you may notice the corners are slightly curved due to its tightly rolled packing, but not to worry, there are many ways to remove these troublesome bends. One option is to simply lay the rug out upside down for a couple of days to allow its fibers to relax and flatten naturally. If you can't wait to display your new floor art, place a heavy object, like a book or a piece of furniture, on each corner for a couple of days to smooth out the curves. Be careful not to trip over these objects and after a few days, your rug should be flushed to the ground and ready to catch the eye of any visitor.

2. How do I care for my area rug?

It is important to vacuum your rug regularly to prevent dust, dirt, and crumbs from settling into the roots. When vacuuming, use the lowest available setting to prevent fibers from being pulled out of the rug backing. If loose ends are found, do not pull them out by hand, be sure to cut them with a scissor. To steer clear of fading and ensure even wear to avoid continuous and direct sunlight exposure, turn the rug regularly, and use rug protectors on the feet of any heavy furniture on top of the rug. If a spill occurs, firmly blot the area around the spill with a clean, dye-free cloth to absorb as much liquid as possible. For deep cleaning, professional assistance is highly recommended.

3. How to stop shedding?

Many rugs shed as a consequence of their construction technique, however, this shedding will diminish gradually over time and can be reduced with these simple steps. First, using a high-quality rug pad under your rug will reduce surface friction that can cause excessive shedding. Second, vacuum your new rug 1-2 times per week in the direction of the pile with low pressure, beater-less vacuum. Remember, shedding is a natural occurrence and should diminish within 4-6 months.
