Cleaning wool area rugs is one important skill for wool are rugs owners to learn. Wool area rugs are expensive carpets although they will enhance of your home and also signals wealth and status. To prolong the life of wool area rugs, we need to undertake some cleaning and maintenance on out part. This post will help a guide on how to clean and maintain wool area rugs.

As part of our cleaning routine, we should vacuum our wool area rugs at least once a week. This is easy to do and we should take some time to do this cleaning. It is a common mistake for rug owners to ignore their wool rugs until it is too late. I am also guilty of such neglect but have soon learn my lesson. Once your wool area rug becomes old and dirty looking, it will be too late to do anything about it. So, while it is still new, please vacuum and clean the rugs often to maintain their look and feel.

Beyond this weekly cleaning routine, you should also hire a professional carpet cleaner once a year to treat the wool area rugs professionally. You might think that this is not necessary but the small fees you incurred is more than offset by the savings of not needing to buy another wool are rug. When hiring a professional cleaner, ensure that they used a low moisture solution to treat your wool rugs. Not every cleaner is experienced in treating different rug materials so it is better that you at least know what to look for. My advice is to hire cleaners that have some experiences in doing wool area rugs cleaning. You can ask your friends or look online and search for cleaners with experiences.

In the event that somebody spill drinks or liquids onto you wool area rugs, this will be then get a bit tricky. Fortunately, wool area rugs, by the nature of their fibers, are stain resistant (note: they are not stain proof, just stain resistant). They contain natural oils that can repel stains efficiently. However, you still need to do quick cleaning when spillage occurs to avoid permanent stains.

When a spillage occurs, immediately use a dry tissue to remove as much of the liquid as possible. Ensure that you do not rub the spillage into the wool area rugs. Rather, you should use a circular motion that gently picks up the liquid. Most people tend to rub too hard, which has more adverse effects as the spillage becomes entrenched into the rug material itself.

Once that is done, you now need to use a commercial carpet cleaning kit to remove any remaining stain on your woolen area rugs. You can buy these commercial carpet cleaning kits from any departmental stores like Walmart or any online sites like Amazon.

In the event that you do not possess a cleaning kit, you can also do the following. If the stain is oil based, use a wet tissue and gently rub the stain away. If the stain is non oil based, you can use a normal liquid detergent and repeat the same circular motion to remove stain. If the spillage isn’t too serious, these methods should be able to work. However, if it is a serious stain, I suggest you buy the carpet cleaning kit as soon as you can or send in to a professional carpet cleaner for help.

There is no question that proper lighting in a room is essential, regardless of whether the room is used for relaxation, sleeping or even work. Floor lamps are perfect for creating a special ambiance in your room.

These lamps have a supreme advantage over many other types of lamps because they can stand-alone. Other types of lamps, such as a table lamp, require that you have something stable to set it on before you can use it. The floor lamp does not have this limitation; they can easily be moved to areas of a room that require light, but don’t have space for a table, providing the lighting needed, exactly where it is needed the most. A floor lamp can brighten a dark corner quickly. Floor lamps also afford the use of more table space – where you previously had a table lamp you can now have a lovely flower arrangement.

Today’s floor lamps are much different than your grandma’s.  The styling choices are limitless. They come in many shapes, sizes and styles in order to satisfy almost every shopper. With all the different choices available, you will have no problem finding a floor lamp that will compliment your home decor. Floor lamps are available in Contemporary, Country, Art deco, Modern, Rustic and Traditional. The lighting elements offered by these lamps can support halogen, incandescent or florescent lights.

Floor lamps can be purchased to focus light on a specific area or item, such as your favorite reading chair, or a prized statue that you want to stand out and be noticed.  They can also be purchased to give general lighting to a room.  Some floor lamps are works of art in their own right, and are purchased just for their look.

Not long ago the floor lamp was actually considered to be somewhat dangerous due to its tendency to tip over easily. However, during the course of the last ten years, lamp manufacturers succeeded in enhancing the design and stability of these popular lamps.
