CaRing FoR youR CuRtainS

curtains are a simple way to add style and privacy to any

room. caring for your curtains can be easy too. Here’s a few

tips to preserve your favorite window treatments:

curtains may protect your home from the sun, but sun-1.

light can also cause your curtains to fade over time. If

your windows receive a lot of direct sunlight, try using

light-colored curtains which won’t fade as quickly and

keep your home cooler. Also, lined curtains are a great

way to protect the outer fabric from damage.

Keep the air in your home cleaner by vacuuming your 2.

curtains once a month. Dust and dirt can accumulate

in the folds of your curtains. carefully use a hand-held

vacuum with a brush attachment.

You may need to occasionally wash your curtains, 3.

especially kitchen curtains because they absorb cook-

ing odors and splattered grease. Read the instructions

carefully and before washing any type of curtains, test a

small patch with water to see how the fabric reacts.

After you wash your curtains, you’ll need to press them. 4.

turn them inside out when ironing to prevent damaging

the fabric and keep your iron on a low setting.

Cozy CappuCCino

Fall is officially here. that means it’s

time to decorate the house with autumn

oranges, warm reds and many shades of

earth tones. cappuccino is a great base

color to work with. It can bring a cozy

and inviting warmth to any room. For

this living room, our dark brown Rosalie

sofa collection is softened with fun ac-

cent pillows accented with a deep yellow

and lighter browns. Pair this rick brown

color with a light and textured floor rug.

Light colored walls can also open up

your space.

create consistency in your room with

more cappuccino accent pieces such as

end tables, a coffee table and a book-

case. Once you’ve placed your large liv-

ing room furniture items (in cappuccino),

accentuate the room with warm, lighter

colors such as beige, oak, yellows and

tans. this will also bring a nice contrast

and balance to the room.

KEEping youR FlooR RugS Flat

Area rugs can be a great and easy way to change the look of your room.

Rolled-up rugs can develop creases and folds, and sometimes making the

corners lift. Here are few methods to keeping a floor rug flat.

1 Unroll your rug or carpet on a flat surface. Allow the rug to sit for at least

24-28 hours to flatten out under its own weight.

2 If the rug does not flatten on its own, here are a few methods to help the

flattening process:

Roll or fold the rug in the opposite direction, which also known as •

“reverse rolling”.

Place heavy objects such as furniture or books on top of the rug •

(espeically the corners) allowing the weight to flatten out the creases.

Use double-stick carpet tape on the corners of the floor rug to help •

keep them securely to the floor. Double-sided adhesion works the best

in low-moisture environments.

Place your carpet in direct sunlight for several hours. temperatures of •

70 to 85 degrees should release much of the rug’s tension.

Have the rug professionally steamed.•

3 Once the floor rug has been flattened, lay it in the area you desire.

tips A synthetic rubber coating can be applied to the back of the rug to help •

the rug from sliding and shifting.

Keeping the rough soles of shoes off your carpet and rugs can help •

prevent wear and damage.

vacuum your carpet consistently and have it professionally cleaned •

every 6-12 months.
