I’m looking for an area rug – where can I find one at a decent price and what size should I get?

My living room/dining room is 15×22 and we’ve just installed hard woods. I want an area rug so my dogs won’t be as likely to scratch the floors.
What size should I go with & where online can I find one at a decent price?

How do I prevent my lightweight cotton rug from sliding on a hardwood floor?

May 3, 2010 by · Leave a Comment 

I have a thin, lightweight, 3×5 rug in my room. The floor is hardwood floor (but unwaxed). It is kind of like an “area-filler”, so my room doesn’t look so empty, therefore I don’t want to put anything on top of it to anchor it down. Simply walking over it causes it to slip & slide and move around. What can I do to hold it in place? Do they sell anything for things like this?

Thank you!

How do I clean a lambswool baby rug?

May 3, 2010 by · 1 Comment 

I got my lambswool rug as a hand-me-down so it didn’t have any washing instructions. Do I just get some wool wash & follow the instructions? My washer has a wool / hand wash cycle can I safely use that or should I hand wash myself?

BTW I’m in Australia.

Please help. #2 is due on Sunday!
Come on guys…can I get some serious answers?

I’ve already tried a Google search but no luck.

What is the name of those rugs with really thick shaggy knots?

January 22, 2010 by · 1 Comment 

I am trying to find a style of rug that is made of really thick knots or knobs or balls- I’m not even sure what words to describe it. Plummers has a pic of it on their website here:
http://www.plummersfurniture.com/?page=shop/view_product&product_id=2343

There is also a UK site that has a rug like it here but be sure to enlarge the product pic to see the detail:
http://mydeco.com/product/shaggy-thick-knot-white-rug/955acc7fbc6035ff844e4681172972e6dcf114dc/

I need help knowing if this type of rug has a generic name so I can look for other options from various rug sites but every search term I’ve tried doesn’t help. Or just point me to other sites that sell this style of rug if there is no name for that texture. Thanks!

have you ever rented a steam carpet cleaner for area rugs?

December 16, 2009 by · 1 Comment 

I have two large rugs, 9 X 11. One Belgian wool about 40 years old, one dhurrie about 20 years old. Light blue and green. It’s been several years since a cleaning, they are just dusty & etc. The rug place here charges more than 0 each to clean them, I’m thinking about taking them on the porch and using a rented carpet cleaner, then draping them over the fence to dry. Please answer If you have experience!
