Spot clean any remaining stains using a cloth or brush
Refreshing area rugs can be a daunting task, but it doesn't have to be! First off, (vacuum) sweep the rug with a suitable vacuum cleaner. This will help to remove any dust or dirt that may have accumulated on the surface. Once this is done, you must then spot clean any remaining stains using a cloth or brush - make sure not to scrub too hard so as not to damage the fabric! Afterwards, hang dry the rug in direct sunlight which will help to remove odours and refresh its appearance. However, if there are no sunny days available then using an appropriate detergent and warm water should do the trick. Additionally, don't forget to add a few drops of vinegar for extra cleaning power!
Now that your rug is looking as good as new again it's time for some maintenance tips. Firstly (never), never leave wet items on top of your rug; this could cause permanent damage or discolouration. Secondly, always rotate your rug around every few months in order to prevent it from wearing out unevenly. Finally, try and use an appropriate shampoo every 6-12 months depending on how often you use it and this should keep your newly refreshed area rug looking fabulous for years to come!
All in all refreshing area rugs isn't difficult at all, just remember these simple steps; vacuum first then spot clean with a cloth or brush before finally hanging dry or washing with detergent and warm water - don't forget those few drops of vinegar either! With regular maintenance you'll soon have an area rug that looks almost brand new again!
