Shag rugs are characterized by long fabric strands that make them appear fluffy and feel soft. They are the ideal type of rug to put in an area that requires warmth and texture. They are available in large and small sizes. They also come in different designs and styles.

 

Miss Amara online offers a wide selection of shag rugs at affordable rates. Whether you want a rug thick enough for you to sink your toes in or something with just enough depth to add texture to your room, look no further than our online shop.

 

A Closer Look at Shag Rugs 

 

Shag rugs have been around for thousands of years. By 331 B.C people were already making shag rugs or flokati rugs using goat hair and sheepskin. While there is no definitive history of origin, most historians attribute the rise of these rugs to ancient Greece. Nonetheless, their popularity hit its peak during the 60s and 70s in most parts of the world because of the increased trade and movement of goods from one point to another.

 

Today, the rugs are often made of wool and cotton materials. This makes them quite soft and warm. However, some are made of polypropylene and even a blend of cotton and wool. They are available in a variety of colours including white, red, grey, brown, purple, green and even multi-colour. 

 

Where and How to Use Shag Rugs?

 

Because of their design and style shag rugs are often used in living spaces that have little human traffic. This ensures that they do not get dirty nor wear out too quickly. A good place to use a shag rug in the bedroom. Placing one just under your bed, where your feet step on when you climb on or off of the bed creates the perfect feeling of coziness.

 

Shag rugs that are not too fluffy can be ideal for the living room because they do not require too much cleaning nor do they get dirty easily. However, avoid putting such rugs in places that are prone to high traffic such as the hallway or the kitchen. Runner rugs and outdoor rugs can be the perfect alternative if you want something for your hallways or outdoor spaces such as the deck or patio.

 

If you want to define spaces in large rooms, consider placing a round rug under the table and put two or three chairs around it. This can easily make your rug area the focal point of the room. Many people find rooms with round rugs at the centre to be quite appealing. Additionally, placing a shag rug in your home office just under the desk can also add to the comfort of your feet while you work.

 

How Can You Care for Shag Rugs?

 

With the right information, caring for your shag rug should be a walk in the park.

 

Keep it clean

 

Cleaning your rug regularly ensures that it does not develop any stubborn stains. One of the ways to keep it clean is by vacuuming it at least once a week. You can also use a broomstick to sweep off any debris that may be stuck on the top or bottom. Wiping off liquids or stains that fall on your rug as soon as possible is key to ensuring it remains looking brand new.

 

Keep shoes off of it 

 

The last thing you want is to come home and step on your shag rug with your shoes. That can cause dirt from the outside to stain it and even cause it to lose its initial radiance.

 

Wash it 

 

After using your rug for a given period, consider letting a professional cleaner wash it for you. This will ensure that any hidden dirt and stains are removed and that the strands are rejuvenated.

 

Store it safely 

 

If you are using a shag rug in your patio or deck, make sure to roll it nicely and keep it indoors whenever you notice any signs of bad weather. Too much direct sunlight or rainfall can cause it to wear and tear quickly. 

 

Are Shag Rugs Hard to Clean?

 

Shag rugs come in different sizes, designs and styles and with the diversity comes a variance in cleaning techniques. While one rug may be easy to clean using soap and water, another may completely get damaged if you use the same method to clean it. The best way to ensure proper care is to follow the instructions that are often attached underneath the rug.
