Where To Place Your Clearance Rugs

 

A lot of professional decorators and interior designers from all across the country utilize our clearance rug selection to assist their clients’ budgets, so it goes without saying that our clearance rug selection truly is one of the best in the industry!

 

The following are some tips to consider when finding a spot for your new clearance rug:

 

Living Room Rugs

 

We recommend that you utilize a rug that has a medium pile for your living rooms, because these household areas tend to see a lot of foot traffic. When it comes to size, you’ll have to do some measurements in order to perfectly understand what size is needed to coincide with how your existing furniture is set up.

 

Dining Room Rugs

 

Low-pile rugs are typically a good idea for this household area that typically sees a lot of traffic, but of course there are many homes that don’t utilize their dining rooms except for dinner parties and when guests come over. But if you do use your dining room on a nightly basis, you should consider the upkeep and cleaning that will be needed after meals.

 

Bedroom Rugs

 

Bedrooms typically see much less foot traffic than most other areas of a home, which is why you can indulge in the chic factors of a high-pile rug like shaggy rugs. Everyone likes their first and last steps of the day to be warm and comfy, and knowing the right size for your bedroom will require measurements underneath and around your bed.

If your purchase ends up not being the right fit for you and your space for any reason, it’s not a problem at all. You can always return it for a full refund within 30 days of your purchase.

Hand-Tufted Rugs

 

While a rug serves many purposes, it's so much more than a simple floor covering. Rather than something you simply walk on, a rug can be the focal point of a room that draws in people’s attention and sets the tone for the rest of the area’s overall aesthetics.

 

Hand-tufted rugs are usually very high-quality rugs that are much more complex than standard machine-made rugs, and they’re also very affordable and great investments for households and workspaces. All of us at Rug Source are very proud of our vast online selection of hand-tufted rugs, and this is partly because we are strong believers in the traditions of personalized rug weaving.

 

We understand that a lot of people don’t have a thorough understanding as to what exactly a hand-tufted rug is and what differentiates these rugs from so many other types, so on this page we’re going to go over a buying guide to help you throughout your rug shopping experience. Some of the information we’ll be discussing includes the following:

 

  • How hand-tufted rugs are made

  • The longevity and overall value of hand-tufted rugs

  • Decorating and care tips

 

By going through our guide to finding the perfect hand-tufted rug for your specific needs and personal preferences, you’ll undoubtedly have a more thorough knowledge as to what makes these rugs so special.

 

And as always the Rug Source team is 100% dedicated to your overall satisfaction throughout every step of the rug shopping experience, so if you have any questions or concerns of any kind feel free to contact us online so we can put you in touch with one of our esteemed experts.

How Are Hand-Tufted Rugs Created?

 

One of the most beautiful features of hand-tufted rugs is that they’re always created by an artisan or textile worker by utilizing strands of wool or other materials within a frame and using a tufting tool to create elaborate, textured designs. This process may be a little bit easier than hand-knotting, but there’s no denying the complexity and intricacy that goes into every single one of our hand-tufted rug selections!

 

The beginning of the creation process starts when a weaver creates a backing with a specific design in mind. The next step is for the artisan to utilize their tufting tool to inject certain materials like cotton into the backing’s design frame. Once the desired materials have been properly injected within the design pattern, the weaver will utilize a scrim and adhesives to ensure that the rug’s fibers remain intact. The next step is to shear any loops in order to make the rug more suitable for walking on and regular foot traffic. The last step is then to bind the edges of the rug in order to make them much stronger and durable for long periods of time.

 

There’s no doubt about it that hand-tufted rugs are true works of art, and what’s great about them is that they are often much more affordable than their hand-knotted counterparts!

Hand-Tufted Rug Value And Longevity

 

Another great feature of hand-tufted rugs is their overall longevity, and their actually known to last longer than any other type of weaved rug. This type of rug is so durable that many families will pass them down from generation to generation over multiple decades!

 

Hand-tufted rugs are great options for homeowners who are on a budget and don’t want to spend too much on a rug due to certain daily risks like pets or children. When you’re concerned about the overall foot traffic your rug will endure but still want to have a very nice option, a hand-tufted rug may just be exactly what you’re looking for in terms of maximizing your investment’s value.

 

You’ll undoubtedly spend much less than a hand-knotted rug, and a hand-tufted rug will also maintain its clarity and overall longevity for decades if it’s properly maintained!

Decorating Tips

 

There are a lot of options for hand-tufted rugs in terms of interior design and decorating, and they’re always great options in terms of accenting hardwood floors within any household room or workplace environment. Although placing a hand-tufted rug in a high-traffic area may potentially shorten its lengthy lifetime, they’re always great options under chairs, sofas and dining room tables.

 

Larger hand-tufted rugs work great within commercial buildings and other industrial-themed spaces, and smaller options can be beautiful accents within a bathroom or dressing area.

 

There really aren’t any steadfast rules when it comes to where you can place a hand-tufted rug, but understanding the amount of traffic in a given area will be a factor in terms of your overall care and upkeep to maintain the rug’s longevity.

Taking Care Of A Hand-Tufted Rug

 

It’s a good rule of thumb to try to vacuum your hand-tufted rug about once per week in order to eliminate any buildup of dust and dirt, and it’s also a good idea to rotate the rug every now and again in order to differentiate how much foot traffic and sunlight certain portions of the rug receive.

It’s not a good idea to beat or shake a hand-tufted rug, and this is primarily because it can potentially damage the rug’s fibers. If you experience a stain, it’s important to scrape it as soon as it’s noticed and vacuum quickly.

 

If you’re experiencing a wet stain, utilize warm water and a cloth to dampen the stain and soak up as much liquid as you can. It’s important to not use too much water in this type of situation as it can potentially loosen up the rug’s adhesives. Also, it’s very important to not rub stains.

The Enduring Popularity of Shaggy Rugs

 

While some people associate shaggy rugs with 1960s Americana, the truth is these rugs have been popular choices for home and business owners and interior designers for decades. Shaggy rugs are enduring classics for a variety of reasons, including their durability and versatility. Given their long-lasting nature, shaggy rugs are perfect for high-traffic areas and homes that have kids, pets or both. Because of their luscious feel, shaggy rugs are also suitable for bedrooms and even bathrooms.


 

Shaggy rugs are available in many shapes and sizes, which makes it easy for them to be incorporated into just about any room’s aesthetics. As you look over our selection of shaggy rugs, you will see our inventory includes shaggy rugs in a wide array of colors, which only adds to their versatility.


 

It really is incredible how the turn of the millennium began a new renaissance within the popularity of shaggy rugs throughout the United States and beyond. With new color options and updated material textures, it makes sense that the modern age has welcomed shaggy rugs warmly into many different rooms throughout our homes.

Types of Shaggy Rugs

 

Shaggy rugs are made in one of two ways: hand-knotted or hand-tufted.


 

When a shaggy rug is hand-knotted, a skilled craftsperson will hand-tie many knots per square inch to make the rug. The more knots a rug has per square inch, the denser its rug pile will be and the more clarity there will be within any design features. To make a hand-tufted shaggy rug, an artisan rug designer will use a handheld tool to punch yarn through a canvas that is stretched over a frame. After all the yarn has been punched through the canvas, fabric or latex is then glued on the back of the completed canvas and fringe is added to the rug.


 

Hand-knotted rugs can last many years when they’re properly cared for, and they’re always beautiful pieces of art that can also be valuable investment opportunities. Like hand-tufted rugs, hand-knotted rugs are beautifully constructed and can be handed down from generation to generation.


 

Shaggy rugs are made with a variety of materials, both natural and synthetic. You will often see shaggy rugs made with wool, cotton, bamboo and even leather. Some of the synthetic materials that are used to make shaggy rugs include nylon, acrylic and polypropylene.

Shaggy Rug Styles

 

Shaggy rugs come in three distinct styles, including:


 

  • Long Shag

  • Short Shag

  • Mini Shag


 

Long shag is similar to the shaggy rugs that were all the rage back in the 1960s. Short shag rugs are produced in the same manner as long shag rugs, but the fibers used to make them are only half as long as those used to construct a long shag rug. A mini shag rug has a pile that is just like the pile you will find on a conventional rug.

Décor Options With Shaggy Rugs

 

The typically long fibers associated with shaggy rugs will more than likely require an added amount of upkeep and care, which is why it’s sometimes considered best to place shaggy rugs in areas of a home that don’t get too much foot traffic. These areas include rooms like your living room or bedroom, but no matter where you place a shaggy rug they’ll automatically boost a space’s overall comforting feel.

 

Placing these beautifully-created, cozy area rugs in places that you’d prefer to walk barefoot can maximize your overall enjoyment of the rug, but you should also always consider the following décor options that can help you complement your shaggy rugs:

 

  • Vintage: When it comes to achieving a vintage 1960s or 70s ambience within a room, there may not be a better option to channel this energy than utilizing a stylish, shaggy rug.

 

  • Modern: Shaggy rugs aren’t just a vintage style these days, and their deep pile and very comfy materials are always welcoming and warm. This type of overall feeling that shaggy rugs exude works well within modern, chic designs.

 

  • Eclectic: An eclectic décor will mainly try to mix things up a bit and utilize small bits of different styles to combine into one, comprehensively beautiful room ambience. If you’re the type of person who loves to mix things up then a shaggy rug will undoubtedly fit right in with your interior design plans!

The Historical Significance Behind The Beauty Of Handmade Rugs

 

Handmade rugs have been around for thousands of years, and still in today’s rug industry they are by far the gold standard. There truly is no better method to create an absolutely exquisite, woven rug design than by utilizing the simplest tools and the mastery of trained weavers and artisans. What’s truly so remarkable about today’s handmade rug industry is that the weaving technique traditions have been handed down from generation to generation and are continuing to thrive.

 

There are countless variations within the handmade rug world, and every technique offers unique warp and weft interpretations and distinctive design repertoires. There’s no denying how the cultural significance of handmade rugs beyond any doubt sets these rugs apart from the rest of the industry, which is why they’re such special investments for homeowners!

 

Handmade rugs are still revered today for their intricate storytelling patterns, their durability, and their unbeatable material textures. It’s a beautiful tradition that speaks volumes into the very heart of humanity’s story, and it’s incredible how handmade rugs have not even come close to being surpassed by machines and technology in terms of prestige and elegance.

5 Important Considerations When Searching For A Handmade Rug

 

Handmade rugs vary dramatically in terms of materials, craftsmanship and aesthetics. It’s important for rug shoppers to have a basic understanding as to what they should be looking for while finding the handmade rug of their dreams, and this is because these are sometimes big investments that shoppers should take seriously.

 

The following are 5 important considerations you should keep in mind while looking through our collection of high-quality, handmade rugs:

 

  1. Handmade Definitions

 

All machine-made rugs lack the overall rarity and quality that coincides with handmade rugs, and the overall difference is the uniqueness of handmade rugs.

 

Machine-made rugs are mass-produced, which makes all of them generally similar in terms of material feel and appearance. Handmade rugs are completely unique, and they’re typically made while an artist utilizes a drawing to complete the rug. Although there may be certain similarities within each weaver’s style, each handmade rug will undoubtedly exhibit an unbridled uniqueness that simply can’t ever be matched.

 

  1. Dyes and Materials

 

Wool and silk are typically the main materials utilized within handmade rugs. There are many rug manufacturers that will use substandard offsets of these materials, but truly handmade rugs will always be made from the real deal. One way to notice the knockoff materials is that they won’t have their natural suppleness and glossiness!

Colorfastness tends to be the way to be able to determine whether or not a rug’s dyes are from the finest quality associated with authentic handmade rugs. One thing you can do is ask a rug dealer like us to test the rug’s dyes, which we’ll be more than happy to do by running a damp cloth over the fibers.

 

This test is to see if any color attaches itself to the cloth, which is a clear indication that the dyes are cheap or simply not authentically integrated into the rug.

 

  1. KPI Value

 

Knots-per-inch (KPI) will help in terms of determining the overall value of a handmade rug. The coloring and overall aesthetics of a rug are always important, but the higher the KPI the more clarity and resolution there will be within these colors and designs. In the world of handmade, Oriental rugs it’s always clarity that speaks loudest.

 

Our handmade rugs range all the way up to 1,000 KPI, which is about as high as this type of knot count can possibly go!

 

  1. Your Best Size

 

It’s always important to know exactly where you want to place your handmade rug within your home or office prior to making any purchasing decisions, because this will help you to more efficiently narrow down your options.
