AREA RUGS
By definition, area rugs cover only a particular area of your home. They offer more variety in terms of design and material, so you can get really creative with your choices. Protection-wise, they don't always measure up to broadloom carpeting.
In the smaller scale of your home environment, a rug creates a unifying focus for a seating area.
There is no lovelier way to accent your hardwood or tile flooring than with a carefully chosen area rug.
Hard surfaces like wood and tile may make the room feel cold and sterile without the added warmth an area rug brings.
The dimension of the rug defines the space and pulls together the furniture pieces used in the room creating a natural gathering area.
Area rugs used as colourful art for the floor can be whimsical or dramatic.
When the rug displays a dominant colour or pattern, it becomes a focal point for the entire room. An eye catching geometric or floral patterned rug also creates a good starting point for the colour scheme of the walls, furniture and accessories used throughout the room.

RUG CARE - MAINTENANCE RECOMMENDATIONS
1. Vacuum regularly to prevent dust and crumbs from setting into the roots of the fibres.
2. Avoid direct and continuous exposure to sunlight.
3. Use of a rug pad is recommended.
4. Use rug protectors under the legs of heavy furniture to avoid flattening the pile.
5. Do not pull loose ends. Clip them with scissors to remove.
6. Rotate your rug occasionally.
7. Remove spills immediately. Blot with clean, undyed cloth by pressing firmly around the spill to absorb
as much as possible. Use all natural cleaning products.
8. For hard-to-remove stains, professional rug cleaning is recommended.
9. Store your rug by rolling it and wrapping in cloth for protection.
10. Do not fold or put in an airtight plastic bag for an extended period of time.
11. Place in dry, well-ventilated areas.
