To keep your rug looking great, remember these easy tips. Don't use a brush or scrub it; just use a gentle vacuum without the beater brush. If something spills, blot it right away, don't rub. Sometimes, turn the rug around to wear it evenly. Put protectors under heavy furniture legs to prevent flattening. If you see loose threads, cut them with scissors, don't pull. And every once in a while, it's a good idea to have it professionally cleaned. These simple steps will keep your rug in good shape.
