What is the area for which you are buying the rug
The first thing to consider while buying a rug is the area for which the rug is going to be used. There are different rugs and carpets for different parts of a house. Each section needs different type of rug. The most common rugs and carpets are best suited for living rooms and bedrooms. If the room has direct access to outside, sees heavy traffic and also has kids and pets playing then a carpet or rug which is designed especially to be stain, dust and dirt resistant is best. Also choosing a rug or carpet with deep color for such area is important because keeping it clean is going to be an uphill task. A rug having high pile should be avoided for heavy traffic area because it may cause people to trip over. Again such rugs maybe great for your bedroom as it will give warmth and coziness to the room. Small rooms can be given a bigger feel by carpets with light colors and a big room can be given a comforting and close feel with carpets having semi dark to dark hues.
Size of the rug or carpet
Choosing the correct rug size is very crucial. Generally area rugs have at least one foot of visible floor space around the rug. There are various sizes of rugs and carpets available at ItsHandicraft. So, take your pick.
Figure out easy maintenance methods
Try to buy those carpets or rugs that you think will be easy or less hassle free for you to maintain. Heavy traffic areas are not good for high end and vintage rugs. Try to go for dirt and stain resistant rugs for such areas to make cleaning easier. It is best to take expert guidance regarding how often you need to clean the carpet you choose, what sort of vacuuming and products to be used for cleaning, what things you need to avoid and things like that.
Rug padding
Always ensure you use anti slip rug underlay for the rugs and carpets. Without rug padding, the rugs and carpets easily will get creased or wrinkled and someone can trip on these and fall. Anti slip rug underlay helps the rugs get a grip on the floor and prevents it from skidding across the floor. It also prevents the fibers of rugs from breaking up even after long use.
