Jute Rugs

Jute rugs have been around for hundreds of years. Well, technically they were not referred to as rugs in the third millennium BC, but their use as floor mats was already quite widespread. 

However, it is in the 18th century that the use of jute to create beautiful rugs really caught on. By the 20th century, a lot of people had discovered the benefits of using jute. Today, it is one of the most popular materials when it comes to rug design.

At Miss Amara online, we offer a wide selection of jute rugs to suit your preference. From round shapes to artistic patterns and colours, you can be sure to find a rug that will easily boost the overall look for your living area.

Benefits of Jute Rugs

Here are just some of the things that make jute rugs some of the most popular in the world today.

Eco-Friendly 

More people are starting to realize just how damaging some materials can be to the environment. That is why most people are opting for eco-friendly options when it comes to the office and home items. Jute rugs are made of natural plant fibre and that means they cannot cause any harm to the environment even when they are discarded.

Natural beauty 

Jute rugs offer inherent natural beauty in any place they are used. Some of these rugs even retain their natural tan meaning they can easily create the perfect natural ambience for relaxation. Just throw your jute rug anywhere and watch how it transforms the whole decor.

Low maintenance

Caring for your jute rug is not as demanding as some other types of rugs can be. A jute rug simply requires some casual cleaning with a broom or a vacuum. Additionally, because of its natural tan, such a rug can blend with most interior decors.

Durability and comfort

A jute rug’s fibres are natural and soft making it one of the best choices for anyone that has children around. What’s more, the fibres are pet friendly, therefore, can’t cause any harm to your favourite pet. But that’s not all; jute rugs are among the most durable because of their low-maintenance and high-resistance to wear and tear.

How to Choose the Best Jute Rug?

Here are a few tips to help you make the right decision when picking a jute rug.

Think of shapes

The shape of the rug should be among your top considerations. Some rugs are round while others are rectangular. Others have a shaggy texture while others may be plain. There are even jute rugs that feature artistic designs at the edges. The key is for you to carefully consider the options you have and pick a shape that will complement your indoor or outdoor area. 

Colours and patterns

Jute rugs come in a variety of colours and patterns. Some are plain while others may have drawings on them. Again, you have to consider where you are going to use the rug before picking it. A rug for the kids’ room can have patterns or drawings of cute animals while one for the kitchen area can be plain and in a dark shade.

Dimensions are important 

Many people simply pick a rug because it looks nice but they forget that its size can have a huge impact on the overall appeal. Understanding the size of your rooms is key to choosing the perfect rug size. Outdoor or large spaces usually do well with runner rugs while small rugs are ideal for compact space.

The costs

The amount of money you have to spend can also be a factor when determining the right rug for you. Thankfully, Miss Amara online has jute rugs that range from basic to luxurious designs and you can, therefore, find something ideal regardless of your budget.

Can You Clean Jute Rugs?

Unlike most types of rugs, jute rugs are fairly easy to clean. Use the details below to carry out the cleaning process.

Shake it out

One of the easiest ways to get rid of loose dirt and debris for a jute rug is by simply taking it outside and shaking it out. The process requires you to hold two corners of the rug and give it a powerful shake. This may not work for a larger rug. Instead, hang it on a railing or fence and beat it out using a broomstick or any strong stick.

Vacuum it 

Another easy cleaning process is simply to vacuum the rug. This will get rid of any debris and dust that may be causing problems. It is highly recommended that you repeat the process of vacuuming at least once every week.

Spot clean 

Whenever you notice a stain or some other stuff that may be problematic, it is prudent to quickly take a piece of cloth, some warm water and wipe it off. If you let stains remain for a considerable period they may not come off easily. Besides, it is a bad idea to wash jute rugs with plenty of water because they generally tend to absorb liquids and can mould.
