What To Consider When Shopping For A White Faux Fur Rug

By George Sullivan


If you want to make a room in your home feel much more comforting and intimate you might want to consider using a softer material to cover the floor. An item such as a white faux fur rug can really help make a room feel warm and welcoming in a way that harder floor coverings cannot do. If you are thinking about adding a rug like this to your home here are some tips and tricks that you need to know that will make it easier to keep that carpet looking as good as new for as long as possible.

Many people don't consider what the conditions are in a particular room before they pick a rug to cover the floor. This is important. A room where there is a lot of moisture may not be a great place for a carpet. This is also true of rooms where there is a lot of traffic as feet can track in a lot of dirt and grime that can make your rug feel and look worn and unpleasant underfoot.

If you do need a rug that is easier to clean you should look for shorter pile since you will be able to vacuum it. If you do not want to do this, a smaller piece of material may be easy to wash or even to hang so as to remove dirt that may mar the surface of your floor covering.

Size may affect the look of an area rug as well as how easy it will be to keep clean. A smaller floor covering can be easy to pop into a washing machine or to pick up and beat in order to get rid of solid dirt. A smaller piece may also work well in a smaller room that may not be able to accommodate a larger rug.

You should also consider whether or not you want your rug to be a plain white color or if you want there to be any pattern or shading in it. A plain white rug can be beautiful but it may not suit every interior. You may want to think about choosing a floor covering that is stark white if you are trying to achieve a monochromatic decorating scheme in a particular room in your home.

Many people may overlook the use of an under pad with their area rug. This is important since it can keep the rug from sliding around and can also help keep the backing from being damaged. It can also make a thin carpet feel a lot thicker and more luxurious.

You can always remove surface dirt in a few different ways. Liquid spills can be blotted up and then cleaned with a good quality stain remover. A vacuum is important for removing solid waste that may damage the pile and cause your carpet to wear out faster than you might like.

If you are looking for stylish rugs that are easy to care for you can always start your search online. You may also want to look in flooring stores or those that sell home accent pieces as well. These types of stores will have a range of different rugs to choose from, some of which will be easier to care for than others.
