How do I get the wrinkles out of my area rug?

June 3, 2010 by  

The rugs in my living room and dining room have warped from steam cleaning. Along the edges, there are a couple of areas that are wrinkled. Any idea how I can fix this? I tried laying something heavy on the area… no luck.

    Our vaccum cleaner (with brushes) seems to generate enough heat (from friction) to practically ‘iron’ our area rug.
