Shag area rugs have a very unique texture to them and are becoming
very popular in many homes around the United States. This style of rug often
adds a whole new dimension to the home by using contemporary patterns and
different types of colors that make the rug stand out.
They are very thick and warm, which helps with keeping feet warm
during the cold winter months. The shag area rugs are also perfect for
protecting floors from being scraped or scuffed accidentally. This is
especially beneficial for those who have natural hardwood flooring. The
thickness also helps with drowning out the sound of people walking around. The
padding is useful to prevent the sound of high heels on a hard wooden floor.
They can even help to muffle out the sound of speech too.
Shag area rugs are very easy to look after but they do need a lot of
cleaning. The fibers used are very long and can easily trap a lot of dust and
dirt. It is very important to wash them frequently so that they continue to
look good in your home. However, the material of the fibers mean that you can
use most carpet cleaning materials on them, so it makes cleaning an easier task
than if you have antique woolen rugs.
Vacuuming a shag area rug regularly can actually help to keep the
rug looking clean and fresh. There can be a problem if liquids are allowed to
be left to soak into the rugs. If they are left then it will be very difficult
to get the stain out but if they are treated on quickly then there are high
chances that no stain will be left. It is best to allow the shag area rugs to
air dry so that the fibers are not damaged – tumble dryers have a bad habit of
doing that.
These rugs can be bought in most department stores and on the
Internet and are relatively cheap. They are becoming more popular and are the
perfect addition to make your house look more homely. There are many different
styles, designs and colors so there is sure to be something to match your décor
and personal tastes. They can be used anywhere in the home and are a perfect
addition for any hallway, living room or bedroom, to make the place look more
inviting to anybody who may come and visit.
