Shag area rugs have made a comeback and are very much in demand. Ultra-soft shag rugs with a dense, cozy weave are simple ways to add flair to any room.

You have your choice of custom sizes, with resistance to stains, soils, and fading, your shag rug can be woven in one of many fabrics, including wool, nylon, cotton, acrylic yarn, olefin, or a bamboo-cotton blend, with a thick, luxurious pile.

A small sized area rug can measure in the region of 2 x 4-ft, while a much larger living space can accept a rug at 12 x 15-ft. A modern floor covering comes in a wide spectrum of vibrant to natural shapes, with beige, ivory, tan, to purple or red passion all on offer.

Small rugs have a rubber backing to help them stay in place and large rugs come with a lining to ensure they stay flat. A shag rug made of luxurious acrylic yarn typically does not shed as much as one made from cotton or wool.

An area rug in a combination of eighty-percent Bamboo / twenty-percent cotton serves up a rug that is naturally anti microbial and anti bacterial. This ensures a resistance to mildew, odors, stains, and mold, and in turn, offers a healthy and eco-friendly option in soft home furnishings.

The rug can be spot-cleaned with a gentle detergent, or professionally cleaned. It is common for a new rug to shed a lot, so vacuum it frequently.

The ambiance of your bedroom, study, or lounge will be immediately enhanced by the soft, comfort of a shag area rug. Wool, cotton, or white shag area rugs of the seventies bring warmth and a creativity to freshen, liven, and add personality to any otherwise dull room design.
