Choosing distinctive carpets for the wedding hall or the aisle of the newlyweds is very important and must be chosen carefully, whether by the newlyweds and their families, or by the planners of the ceremony. If the wedding is outdoors and the walkway is dirt and not paved, or even planted with weeds, then this is more appropriate to use carpets in the wedding corridor to prevent sand, gravel, grass, etc. from reaching the bride’s clothes or shoes, making them feel resentful. But if the wedding takes place inside a flat hall, it is not logical for the floor to be exposed, regardless of its shape or material, then the carpet suitable for the atmosphere and lights of the hall is an excellent solution, and luxurious decoration in the hall, or if the wedding corridor consists of stairs or stairs that the newlyweds descend from, then the stairs will become more luxurious If properly carpeted. In general, carpets will transform the venue for the ceremony into a more comfortable, relaxing, and beautiful place, especially when the bride and groom choose luxurious carpets, but with bold, warm colors, and suitable for the ceremony. Tips to help you choose the right carpet for the wedding hall Here are some tips to help you choose the right carpet for your wedding aisle or ballroom: On special occasions and the wedding ceremony, use plain formal carpets if you choose them for the wedding corridor. As for the hall, you can choose carpets or “rugs” decorated with delicate and beautiful patterns. Make sure all the time and during the wedding preparations to choose harmonious and harmonious colors, and belong to one color palette, so that it does not look random and unkind on such a special day. Add to the newlyweds' table, and the tables around which the invitees wrap some flowers and rose petals, and white lights, and let the "shades" and flowers be in harmony with the color of the carpets and bedspreads; To have a perfect wedding. If you prefer a simple style at your wedding, think of white carpets, light carpets in shades of pink and beige, with some roses of the same colors intertwined with white. If your taste is inclined to a more luxurious look, you can use fur rugs to the tables, the platform, the back of the bride's chair, the bride's table, the hospitality serving trays, and even the use of fur runners as luxurious decorations for the guest tables. For more luxury, decorate the sides of the corridors, guest seating areas, and the backs of chairs with pieces of leather carpets reinforced with luxurious natural fur, and add some of them to the walls if the ceremony is indoors, as they give the place charm and attractiveness when it reflects the beautiful lighting in the wedding halls. Ask the organizers and planners of the ceremony or those in charge of preparing the hall to add distinctive carpets to the wedding platform, the bride’s table and chairs, and to distinguish this place with colors and décor that are in harmony with the rest of the colors and decorations of the place. In the event that the wedding hall or the outdoor venue contains some trees, artificial plants, and plant pots such as roses, pampas, bamboos, and other ornamental plants, pieces of leather or jute carpets can also be placed under pots and containers, as well as under lampshades, food and beverage tables, and in the corner of the buffet. If the wedding hall contains stairs or a dressing room, some carpets of suitable materials and colors, such as light fur and leather softened with fur and natural fur, can be distributed on the doors, stair railings, and around the mirrors. If the wedding ceremony is in the open air or outside and the walkway or corridor that the newlyweds will walk over to reach the celebration platform has some pebbles, dirt, rocks, or natural or even artificial grasses, then the appropriate carpets are rectangular carpets with a distinctive and glowing color, which distinguishes the corridor from the rest of the floor, whether It was planted or paved. Also, a new idea for an outdoor wedding, if the place contains some natural trees, then carpets can be distributed under and between the bushes and provided with special “buff” or “bean bags” seats, because the atmosphere of the wedding celebration ignites the romantic atmosphere between everyone and brings hearts closer to affection. By doing so, you give them suitable places to sit together and talk with affection and love, thus giving your guests and invitees an unforgettable day and memories at your wedding.

Choose the appropriate carpet for it, and let it be unpatterned, simple and glowing in color to suit the occasion and give it prestige. Should we buy carpets for the wedding or rent them? You must think about it, it's worth; Because the costs of carpets are not simple on the one hand, and on the other hand, it would be wasteful and inappropriate to spend a lot to obtain suitable carpets for the wedding hall and wedding aisle, and then neglect or dispose of them, and therefore we have several proposals in this regard: - Look for places and stores that rent carpets for different purposes and choose from their offerings what suits you best.

It is possible to cover the entire floor with artificial grass or green “artificial grass”, then distribute a number of large candles kept in a decent candlestick, distribute them and install them carefully so that a catastrophe does not occur, God forbid. You can distribute some pots in which cactus, pampas, and bamboo are planted around the corridor carpet as well, as they give a very natural atmosphere and renew the oxygen of the place with crowding. For couples who love the marine atmosphere, you can also decorate the corridor around the carpet with fishing nets designed as decoration and artificial marine plants, or arches bearing marine expressions such as boats’ heels, shells and coral reefs, in blue, brown and green colors that will add charm and attractiveness. Rectangular arches are beautiful and fresh and can be used for a unique wedding aisle, but they also need to be supported with glass vases, flowers and ribbons in matching colors. Triangular arches can also be used as distinctive entrances that give the wedding corridor the look of adventure, as if the newlyweds are going through an adventure together when they pass through the triangular gates that are placed at different angles. Providing the carpeted corridor with a ceiling from which some herbs such as papampas, hay and other lilac and flowering plants hang, which give a breathtaking scene.

How to keep the carpet sparkling when the school year is over summer vacation approaching; It means the end of an academic year and the children staying at home all day, which means that the mother will think of more attention and cleaning to keep the furniture and furnishings in good condition, and she will think of more solutions to keep the house pleasant and at the same time clean and elegant. Perhaps the first thing that the mother thinks about when summer comes is how to maintain the carpet – since it is the most expensive and perishable piece of furniture if used improperly, which leads to the family incurring unaccounted or expected costs – especially with the increased probability of guest visits, children’s movement and constant trampling. On top of it, and its exposure to stains and different smells with the presence of children - and children in general, old and young - at home, and from here begins to think about storage as a solution that is perhaps the best among the other available solutions. In other cases, such as when the family decides to travel to another place during the summer vacation, such as spending the vacation in a summer resort on the beach in one of the coastal towns with moderate climates in summer, or in the countryside and villages with relatives, and many expatriates return to their homes at this stage and leave their homes In exile and in this situation, too, they will need ways to store and preserve their furnishings and rugs. In this article, we will shed light on ways to care for carpets, such as cleaning them and storing them so that they retain their elegance and brilliance during the summer seasons, especially during the summer vacation: Storage is the best way to keep your rugs looking and feeling beautiful Yes, storing the carpet will protect it from tampering and random behavior that may damage it - unfortunately - whether in the case of traveling and leaving it without use or attention, or in the case of staying at home and frequent movement over it by children and guests. Storage is not random or based on folding the carpet and placing it in one of the corners of the house, but rather it proceeds according to specific steps that ensure that it is preserved from damage, otherwise storage will not have any distinct positive effect. It leads to damage and loses its elegant shape, and it is a breeding ground for pests, mites and insects. Some reptiles, rodents and insects may hide in its folds if it is not stored properly. Unfortunately, random storage also causes bad and unwanted odors to accumulate in the improperly stored piece of carpet, especially if it is of a large size. . The storage process is not a long and arduous process in any case, but it is organized and has ordered and sequential steps that govern the method of storage only; In order to ensure the achievement of the goal for which we store carpets, and not to lose them in light of negligence and randomness. How do we prepare carpets for storage? First, clean the carpet completely: In order to start properly, we must first clean the carpet according to its material, the amount of dirt or stains and odors in it, and to achieve this task we use a strong and high-quality vacuum cleaner to ensure the suction of the largest amount of dirt, lint, dust, and even bacteria and things that are not seen by the eye. After sweeping the carpet, look at the washing instructions on the attached label, and apply them in order to clean the carpet according to its material and the method of building its tissues. In order not to damage them instead of preserving them, you can review an article on how to clean carpets, according to its material and weaving method. Many resort to steam cleaning carpets in carpet cleaning stores, but not everyone has the ability to pay the costs, which are often high, but for information, the steam method cleans the carpet and kills any bacteria or germs stuck to it as well as it preserves its colors and gets rid of stains and unpleasant odors easily . If you have lightweight, small to medium sized woven braided rugs that you want to store, simply put them in a mesh laundry bag, machine wash on a very gentle wash, dry low, if they are large, sponge them by hand with Carpet cleaning foam and then rinse it with water, or suction it with a dedicated vacuum cleaner. Second: Protect the carpet from moths and other insects: If you determine the storage location that you will use, whether in the pantry, under the beds in the bedrooms, or above the cupboards, and these are the most popular places for storing furniture, then you can use a measure of insect and moth repellents, which are available in home appliances stores and pharmacies. After washing the carpet and making sure that the water is completely dry, you can spray it with pieces of naphthalene, or repellents for insects and moths intended for fabrics and furnishings, before wrapping it and placing it in storage places, whether on a lower floor such as a garage, or an upper floor such as an attic or shed, or even in bedrooms under the beds. or on top of the wheels. The important thing is that the rug is well protected. Because it will stay in the store for a period of time that may last for months or years, so you must take care of all the details, and make sure that you distribute the insect repellent on it in a balanced and even manner before wrapping it for storage. Third, wrap the carpet tightly: It is not recommended to fold carpets at all; Because folding may lead to its breaking and causing wrinkles, creases, cracks and other damages in it. Therefore, it is always recommended to roll it in the form of a flat cylinder instead of folding it, thus making it easier to roll and roll. But when wrapping there are also some considerations you'd like to take into account, all in order to preserve the rug or rug in the best possible way. - Determine which of the two sides of the carpet is the more fragile and inward-facing, whether the back or the face of the carpet, and often the top side that contains the lint and fibers is the most delicate and fragile, which means that you have to turn it inward and then start rolling. - Start rolling the rug or rug in a balanced way, while keeping it as straight as possible, and you can use the children to adjust the balance from the right and left sides while you roll the rug to complete its winding, and you can also use a rod, whether a stick, a dowel, a thick curtain arm, or even a rod specially designed for carpets And use it to wrap it around it in a straight way. Fourth: Cover the carpet with a protective cloth or nylon: You must have a large piece of cloth or nylon sufficient for such purposes, and it is not considered an emergency, by the way, but rather a necessity for taking care of the house and furniture, and it must be taken care of and provided with the materials and tools that help with it. After wrapping the carpet tightly, a protective cloth or nylon is wrapped around it. This is a very useful method not only for storing carpets, but also for shipping them to the consumer, or moving them from one place to another, when moving from one apartment to another, when buying, or when carrying them as gifts to loved ones and relatives. This extra layer of protection will prevent dirt, insects, and other things from getting onto or entering the carpet and damaging the fibers. This step can be carried out by wrapping the large piece of cloth twice or at least once and a half around the rolled carpet or rolled rug, in order to secure the required protection, and then tie it with a cotton or polyester tape. There are special covers available for this task made of the best material for storage, which is polyurethane, that material that allows ventilation and provides a superior barrier against moisture and insects, and it is a much more effective material than regular fabric, and experts have designed covers of them in several sizes and measurements, you can choose what suits you best for storing carpets, as it is It's worth taking extra care of, and experts warn against using plastic to wrap rugs for storage. Because it prevents air from leaking into stored carpets and rugs, which damages them instead of preserving them. Fifth: Store the carpet in a place away from the ground in a cool and dry place: The best places to store carpets are places far from the floor or tiles directly, and to secure them from any damage close to them, and it must also be ensured that there is nothing on top of them, such as boxes and supplies that are placed in stores in general, as they damage the carpet and put pressure on it, so it bends and is exposed to cracking, breakage and damage. Here are these important tips to provide in the storage area: Always use a fan in place, or use dehumidifiers in the pantry to avoid mold and moisture problems. Block permanent light, especially that light that leaks from windows and sunlight that may shine on the stored carpets to damage or change their colors. Clean the store regularly and continuously, and dust it from time to time, and the cleaning times must be infrequent. Store rugs on surfaces raised directly from the floor and do not place objects on top of them for added protection, as many insects prefer to reside and live between the floors and the back of the rug. Sixth / open the carpet and check it every few months If you store carpets for a long time, we suggest that you open the rolled and stored carpets even once a month for more safety, to check on them and make sure that there are no moths, insects or rodents, while cleaning the area where you keep the stored carpets, vacuum it to get rid of any dust It attracts spiders and insects. Storage places and storage units suitable for storing carpets: If you do not have a suitable place for storage, we suggest that you use ready-made storage units provided by many home appliances stores, carpet and furniture stores, which are modern smart solutions that are not expensive, or at least they are nicer and less expensive than the price of obtaining a new carpet in case of damage that you have. The advantage of dedicated storage units is that they provide a suitable environment for storing and protecting the most valuable carpets, allowing moisture, heat and ventilation to pass in just the right amount. Just as public services are available for everything; Storage services are also available. Some companies have allocated the service of storing furniture, clothes, and collectibles at the hands of specialists and in places equipped with the latest methods and methods. Experts in storage and preservation of collectibles take care of them. If you do not have a suitable space and need storage, you can search for one of the providers of these services. In your area, then contact him to inquire about prices, time period, and more. Finally, There is no doubt that all of us need the advice of specialists and experts when performing something that is completely new to him, or that is required of him and that he does not have sufficient experience in it, and this is the best way to preserve our valuables that we have made an effort to acquire, and more effort must be made to preserve them. You can always search the web, which is no longer surprising that it contains literally everything, so whenever you need an expert opinion on carpet storage, or access to tools, cleaners and keeper for it, just turn it on and do your research. In fact, when you maintain your furniture and belongings, it will be natural for those around you to feel that you are renewing your furniture every once in a while; Because it will always look new, and it will make you proud of yourself.   Sources: Ø /storage-rug-at-expert-an-be-to-https://www.lifestorage.com/blog/storage/how Ø /used-arent-rugs-https://ayoubnh.com/blog/store Ø guidelines-rugs-and-carpets-store-to-https://www.xtraspace.co.za/blog/articles/how

A pattern may catch your interest, but you do not know whether it is a practical solution or not, and because the practical side is one of the most important things that must be taken into account when choosing carpets, in this article we toured some of the main rooms in the house to offer some tips to inspire you with new ideas for buying. Choosing the best types of carpets for bedrooms The bedroom is the main relaxation room in the house, so when you decide to buy a carpet for this room, the choice must be carefully according to the following criteria: 1. Softness There is no feeling like waking up from sleep and putting your toes on a soft room surface, and there will be nothing softer than adding carpeting to the bedroom, so the main criterion here is softness and not the ability to withstand movement, which helps relaxation and comfort. Therefore, carpeting should be chosen from The twisted type, not knotted , because it is easy to maintain its appearance, while giving you and your child a permanent feeling of softness when walking on it. It should also be noted that it is necessary to add a new, high-quality pad to support the surface of the carpet and extend its life, and to ensure that you get a superior smoothness. 2. Keep warm We all want to feel as comfortable as possible when we go to bed and the best way to do that is to use warmer colored carpets in the bedroom. Choosing the best carpet for the living room We all want our living rooms to look their best, because it is the space in which we sit with our family and guests, and adding high-quality carpeting can achieve a balance between practicality and elegance, here are some criteria to achieve this: 1. Color coordination Work on matching the carpet colors with the general decor of the living room, because choosing conflicting and inconsistent colors can spoil the decor completely, and of course this includes coordination with the colors of the walls, the color tones of the furniture and other decor elements in the living room. 2. Practical carpeting The living room is the most used room, so it is necessary to ensure that it is designed in a practical way without forgetting the element of comfort. Carpets with deep pile are considered the best source of warmth and are difficult to clean with a vacuum cleaner. Use a broom that can change the height of the attachment in contact with the carpeting, or use a type of attachment that works The beater bar collects dirt, in addition to the suction of air by the broom to facilitate the sweeping process. The carpet is very soft with time and becomes flat, so it is necessary to maintain and clean it constantly to ensure its preservation, especially the carpet used in areas with heavy traffic. Avoid using light carpets that are difficult to clean, especially if you have children or pets at home, as short-pile carpets are an excellent and healthier option and are less likely to retain odors. Choosing carpets for stairs House corridors and stairs are one of the most used areas in the house, and it is characterized by heavy traffic, so it is preferable to use strong carpeting that can bear these burdens. Placing durable carpeting on the stairs is an ideal solution. Wool is a material that has natural elasticity in its fibers and can be a great choice for stairs . 1. Maintenance Most of the corridors (especially those in the basement) are exposed daily to things such as water and dirt that are carried by shoes, so avoid using light carpets that are likely to get dirty easily. Dark-colored carpeting is not an ideal choice because it may also look dirty unless it is cleaned regularly, so use medium-colored carpeting, or decorative carpeting. 2. Durability We use the corridors daily and constantly all the time, so choosing a carpet that can withstand high traffic will be the best solution. A carpet with wool knots is ideal because it provides flexibility, and it is characterized by a thin, soft and welcoming texture. Choosing a greenhouse carpet If you have a sunny garden attached to your home, it would be a good idea to add a comfortable carpet to enjoy in your garden. Remember that the carpet will be exposed directly to the sun's rays, so the idea of ​​adding a dark carpet is not appropriate, because the color will fade and the carpet will look faded, and the carpet with light shades is an impractical idea, so the carpet with short fibers with a spotted pattern or with an earthy color is an ideal choice . It is necessary to take into account the various functions of the different rooms in the house and understand the carpeting options before choosing a carpet for each room in the house, so that you can enjoy the advantages of the practicality and elegance of carpeting that it adds to the appearance of your home décor.

Get rid of the gloom of winter and change its colors directly, stay away from anything dark, completely exclude dark colors, and let your home and spaces shine in the welcome of spring, to feel its wonderful atmosphere, its light and gentle materials, its refreshing scents and its delightful fragrances. When you start the spring cleaning campaign in your house and your spaces around the house, in the balconies, entrances, corridors, gardens, halls of the house, bedrooms, living rooms, and rooms in general, and this is in itself a pleasant and refreshing thing, it must be at this time that you will start thinking about spring decorations, and you will think about how to add A bright spring look in all the nooks and crannies of your home, after more than 6 months in which you got tired of the gloom of autumn and winter colors and longed for the joy of colors here and there. You can choose light rugs made of nice cold materials, and stay away from heavy, insulating carpets. To allow the fresh spring air to seep into your home and spaces, look for rugs and carpets made of cotton textures that match the lightness of the season. And about the spring touches that can be obtained using spring colors, we recommend: light colors in general, such as pink colors in different shades, cold violet and lilac color that enhance the feeling of psychological comfort, calmness and depth, sky blue, greenish turquoise blue, and light green or cool green in particular, Yellow and orange in cold degrees, as if they were mixed with white to extinguish their warmth and heat, and even their ignition, while avoiding the bright ones completely. Choose carpets that bear spring paintings with very light gray floors, and very light white or earthy stripes that carry the color of the earth in a calm and cool degree. As for dark colors, we advise you to stay away from them completely. When choosing carpets and rugs for the spring season, try to escape from black and navy pieces and avoid choosing carpets in red, dark brown or petroleum colors, as well as dark gray and dark red or purple colors, as all these colors still carry the atmosphere of winter with their closure. Materials suitable for spring carpets Spring is unique in soft, light materials such as Chinese cotton and silk, next to kilim rugs, as well as light and practical plastic rugs or treads, and other leather rugs decorated with luxurious silk pile. As for natural carpets made of Chinese cotton, it is the softest material, and it is soft, suitable for the lightness and touch of spring, very easy to clean, versatile, with a casual appearance, and is available in endless colors, and its patterns are numerous, and its designs are many and varied. Very simple and thin, finally it can be folded, washed, stored and replaced frequently without problems. Tips for choosing spring carpets according to the place While most people prefer to keep homes without mattresses or carpets on the floors, especially at the start of the spring season when warm weather begins to infiltrate the area, we find others, as we mentioned above, who like to bring the atmosphere of spring into the house. In the spring, we choose the shape and colors of the piece according to the place in which we will furnish it, and according to its exposure to air currents, the sun, and traffic on it, and it is taken into account that light colors, despite their great joy, are quickly polluted, pick up dark colors, and leave foot and shoe marks on them, and this is not pleasant, but it can be dealt with, of course. or avoid it in one way or another. Below we talk about the appropriate pieces, colors and materials according to the place to be covered with carpets in the spring: Outdoor spaces and open spaces Beautiful weather means more opportunities to sit outside and enjoy nature up close, but to choose the appropriate carpet we suggest the following, bearing in mind that carpets for outdoor spaces complement the landscape of nature and do not cancel it, so let's move away from the many details. There are carpets made of artificial grass or “grass” of green color, and some of them can be laid and used in the outdoor spaces, and the various balconies around the house, whether on the upper or lower floors, or even on the roofs of the houses. Green in the spring, this type of carpet gives them its feel and is generally not very expensive. As for the wide balconies or the so-called “roofs”, more than one piece can be used, whether of artificial grass, or cotton carpets and rugs made of light materials such as kilim, silk carpets, and leather, and they are distributed according to the general decoration, and whether there are swings or rocking chairs in that balcony. Or bamboo or plastic seats... according to the taste, mood and personality of the population in general. Interior spaces and corridors It is known that the corridors are the most frequented places in the house, and the movement over them is often repeated all the time, whether during the day or at night, and therefore we choose the colors of the spring carpets that will be placed in them with caution and attention to these matters, and in order not to be exposed to pollution all the time, so we have to wash them more than once It faded and lost its freshness. In this regard, we suggest that you follow one of two methods: the first / which is to choose more than one piece of small size and place it in an aesthetic way that does not cover the whole place, with bright, delightful colors, but to move away from white and very light colors, while the second method / is to allocate colored rugs with overlapping colors, or pieces Leather mats with plastic or silk and cotton fabric over them, for daily use, with other bright spring colors to be placed in times of interruption of visits or rationing of movement over them. Bathroom and kitchen rugs It is preferable to allocate more than one mat for bathrooms, with bright colors that withstand use, or colored rugs in overlapping colors, but with a preference to provide more than one piece or more than one set for each bathroom and each kitchen. Because the use of kitchens and bathrooms in general is different from the rest of the house. Grass green, cold violet, sky blue, beige, pink with white are preferred. Gray can be included in all colors of bathroom carpets. As for kitchens, non-bright yellow and orange colors or any bright color that is in harmony with the colors of kitchen decor in general is preferred. Living and bedroom carpets Parents spend most of the time in the living rooms, and therefore it is suitable for them in the spring season, carpets in which bright colors pronounce and overlap in a beautiful practical way, and that withstand frequent use, especially if the room’s furniture is dark in color and with the presence of television, the children study sometimes and eat some snacks between time And another, since most of the family's activity takes place in these rooms, especially if the number of family members is large. As for the bedrooms, light cotton carpets with bright colors can be satisfied with them. They are mostly used only during sleep or during cleaning, and therefore they remain one of the cleanest places, hence the choice of cool colors is appropriate for these rooms, such as carpets with coastal colors, bright colors such as cold pink and violet, turquoise, and tree green, which are The right colors that give a unique vitality to the bedrooms in the spring. Guestroom carpeting The guest rooms are unique with spring carpets pampered with silk, and if the area of ​​​​the guest rooms is large, they can be provided with more than one piece in the seating areas, table tables, and chairs distributed for sitting. It is preferable to choose bright colors that are in harmony with the colors of the sofas, furniture and curtains. It is also possible to place more than one beautiful piece of carpet at the entrance of the rooms to the seating areas. It is preferable that they be in distinctive colors and shapes that act as a passage for guests heading towards the sofas and seats. Choose from spring designs that resemble your personality and express you Because spring is the starting season for most plants and flowers, and the season for the proliferation of creatures and animals that were completely hidden during the fall and winter seasons, personalities who love life, release and expression are worthy of designs that overflow with life and are in fact suitable for spring, such as: blooming flowers, and bold roses in expression About beauty, openness, the desire to hike, and the love of life. There are also many designs that express the most daring and outgoing personality, which highlight their preferences with special designs and automatically choose them, such as intricate flowers and overlapping panels in bright and cheerful colors, as well as medals and rare pieces, in clear and bold pink colors, cheerful yellow colors, or more clear blue colors . Even in the bold clear spring; There are somewhat mysterious personalities, such as these personalities who choose the mysterious beauty, which needs interpretation, such as surrealist paintings, and marine and coastal paintings that contain a hint of an anticipated adventure hidden in the details, as well as spring rugs that carry overlapping colors and do not express anything clear in particular. Tips for maintaining and cleaning spring carpets You must know that the weight of the furniture may affect the carpet and cause unwanted marks, so it is recommended to keep the legs of the furniture slightly away from the carpet. Vacuum the carpet daily, or at the latest weekly if the carpet is not exposed to daily use. Vacuuming is most effective if the vacuum bag is less than half empty or full. More than that makes it less efficient. Remove unpleasant odors first, choose fresh essential oils, and spring suits those scents that resemble sugar, fruits, and vanilla. You can add two drops of essential oil to baking soda, then sprinkle it on the carpet and leave it for ten minutes, then sweep it to enjoy the beautiful scent, and keep the rest of the mixture in a box glass to use when needed.

إذا نظرت إلى الألوان الباردة ستشعر كما لو أنها تتراجع وهو ما يجعل أي مساحة تبدو أكبر، بعكس الألوان الدافئة التي تجعل المساحات أصغر حجما، لذا إذا كانت لديك غرفة صغيرة يمكن أن يساعد تصميمها بألوان فاتحة في جعلها تبدو أكبر، من جهة أخرى إذا كانت لديك مساحة تفتقر لضوء الشمس الطبيعي فستشعر فيها بالكثير من البرد إذا أضفت إليها ألوانا باردةً بشكل أساسي.

Carpet Exchange: Soft Heritage for Sale! In 1887, the French artist "Leon Jerome" painted his famous painting " The Carpet Seller in Cairo ", which was inspired by one of his many trips to North Africa and the Arab region. This wonderful painting depicted a scene from the usual daily life in Egypt. The French painter was fascinated, like other orientalists, by all aspects that represent the history of eastern civilization, and the conditions and customs of people. Among them is the carpet market, which was considered as the carpet exchange in Cairo, one of its main stops on its journey, especially that market located in the alleys of old Cairo full of archaeological sites and historical features dating back thousands of years. The painting, which was painted on a piece of canvas with oil colors, reflected; In itself, a distinctive artistic creation, as if it quoted some of the beauty and accuracy of the art of carpet making. We notice this in the details of the painting, which clearly describes the main piece of carpet displayed, as if you were standing by yourself in the market, watching its exquisite decorations and the momentum of its elegant, harmonious colors. Cairo was not the only incubator of what we could call a carpet stock exchange, but the Moroccan city of Fez was also known for the trade and circulation of carpets as a commodity of unique value, and this city has lived since the thirteenth century AD a golden age as the most important city producing carpets in the country, and dozens of dyeing workers were employed by it. Thousands of embroidery centers were based in Fez. The early adoption of the Moroccan carpet industry did not come out of nowhere, but rather was a natural product of the distinctive climate in which this region lives. For example, weavers make thick carpets with a heavy pile to be useful for heating when snow covers the Atlas Mountains in the north, but in hot desert areas. The workers make sure to weave the carpets flat and light, in order to provide a soft and gentle floor covering at the same time. Until now, the carpet exchange in Fez is still very popular with the people of the country and tourists alike. This demand reflects the extent to which the ancient Moroccan carpets made by the women of the Moroccan tribes are popular with their hands in their spare time. It is very popular today due to its diverse motifs and flexible designs that fit nicely with modern and bohemian decor as well. This was a quick glimpse into the past on two of the most important carpet markets in the region, which embodied one of the most prominent forms of the carpet exchange in the past, so what about now? Below we offer a reading of the most important conditions of the carpet exchange at the present time. Contents Read on the global carpet market landscape by 2026 A closer look at the carpet market in the Kingdom What are the most prominent carpet producing countries in the global market? New trends in the carpet exchange   Read on the global carpet market landscape by 2026 The carpet exchange is full of wide ranges of colors and designs of pieces, most of which are made of wool, polyester, nylon, polypropylene or other synthetic fibers. Carpets currently provide higher levels of comfort compared to carpets in the past, and new technologies in manufacturing that aim to increase durability and improve aesthetics alike have led to an increase in demand, for example the “tufted” manufacturing technology that makes carpets last longer and have stronger stain resistance, As well as the heavy use of nylon because of its flexibility and resistance to abrasion. There are other factors that have led to an increase in demand in the carpet exchange, such as the demand for purchases from the commercial sector such as companies and retail stores, in addition to the increase in the popularity of carpet tiles , the increase in demand for the purchase of luxury carpets, as well as the continuous growth in the construction movement worldwide. The main purpose of laying carpets in the house is heating and improving the aesthetic appearance of the interior decoration in addition to sound insulation, and despite the growing interest in floors with hard surfaces such as parquet, marble and ceramics, carpet sales were not negatively affected in general as we will see, because the carpet in itself It is a tool to enhance the appearance of hard surface floors, accentuate their beauty and bring an overall balance to the look of a room. As for future expectations for the demand for carpets, analyzes indicate that the size of the global carpet market will reach $38 billion by 2026, at a compound annual growth rate of 3%. The figures showed that the residential sector will lead the carpet market with a contribution of $24 billion during the same period. . The explanation for this is the emergence of a strong trend towards home renovation in addition to the construction movement that does not stop and results in thousands of new residential buildings that need to be furnished. The main noticeable trend in the carpet exchange is the dominance of North America on the market as the largest market for carpets around the world, especially in light of its cold climate most months of the year, and commercial demand from companies and institutions for carpets leads to a heavy import movement from various emerging markets, supported by the recent development. In rapid industrialization techniques, along with other factors driving the demand for carpets such as the growth of the middle-class population. A closer look at the carpet market in the Kingdom The situation in the Saudi carpet market is no different from its counterpart in the global market, as it is expected that the carpet exchange in the Kingdom will witness a growth during the next few years of 1% annually, and the Kingdom exports carpets to more than 70 countries and produces between 120: 130 million square meters of carpets. Carpet per year, consumption rate of nearly 70 million square meters. Carpets are mainly used for their benefits in floor smoothing and protection as well as for their cosmetic properties. The market is expected to grow to a large extent for several reasons that fuel the demand for carpets, the most important of which are: The growing interest in interior decoration products, the modern lifestyle, and the keenness to live in a comfortable home with a beautiful design. Consumer tastes are constantly changing in line with fashion trends in interior furniture. Higher levels of consumer income. Increased spending on carpet renewal, as many carpets are exposed to high levels of wear and tear and eventually need to be replaced after several years of use. Active building and construction movement, whether in new areas or on existing buildings. The residential sector contributes the lion's share to the increase in the demand for carpets in the Kingdom, especially if we know that the official figures issued by the Ministry of Housing indicate that nearly 3 million homes must be built by 2025 in order to solve the housing shortage problem in the country. There is no doubt that increased investment in the residential construction sector in particular will lead to rapid growth of the carpet market. The carpet exchange in the Kingdom is characterized by a large coherence, as there is a group of large players from carpet producers, in addition to increasing competition from local and international small and medium companies trying to obtain market share by innovating new products. What are the most prominent carpet producing countries in the global market? Talking about the global carpet market would not be complete without getting to know the most important countries that produce carpets in the world. For some countries such as Turkey, Iran and Pakistan, carpets are not just a local product that contributes a significant share to the national economy, but rather an integral part of the national heritage and a civilized facade that tells the culture of a people and the history of a nation. Our list will not focus on machine-made carpet countries such as China and the United States, which focus on mass manufacturing at the expense of unique design and authenticity. Rather, we will highlight the best spots in the world that produce handmade carpets that inspire carpet manufacturers all over the world with their originality and uniqueness. The following is a list of the top 5 countries where we produce handmade carpets: Iran Since the Middle Ages, Iran has been a center for the production of handmade carpets, and it is still a major exporter of carpets to the world. The Persian carpets are of the highest quality among the various other types of handmade carpets, and they are distinguished by their small intricate shapes and the most wonderful natural colors of all. India The market for handmade carpets in India has recently grown as a tradition carried over from the Middle East and Iran. The Indian market produces a large amount of handmade carpets that are exported to many parts of the world. It is distinguished by its reasonable prices that suit the budget of the middle class. However, it does not have the same durability as handmade carpets produced from the Middle East. Pakistan Pakistani weavers belong to nomadic tribes or to ancestors who immigrated from India and Iran, and this affected the quality of Pakistani carpets, which are characterized by tribal and Persian designs in the first place. Pakistani carpets can be made to order, and they carry an ideal mixture of the elements of popularity in terms of reasonable price, antique design and high quality. Turkey Turkey produces handmade carpets that enjoy wide international fame, as a result of a unique style that blends the cultural influences of neighboring civilizations from Asia, Europe and North Africa. Turkish carpets are famous for their durability, elegant designs and soft texture.

Given the volume of production, Kazakhstan is not a major producer of handmade carpets, yet it produces one of the most distinctive types of carpets, as it contains plant images and unique patterns made Made of natural wool and goat hair. New trends in the carpet exchange Sustainability is no longer a marginal consideration for many consumers, but rather it is seen by many customers as a priority now, as they are increasingly looking for environmentally friendly products that keep pace with their desire to protect the planet and represent safe waste. This led manufacturers to introduce plant fibers, such as sisal, into the production process to appeal to this growing customer segment. Major players in the carpet exchange also focus on innovation and incorporating advanced technologies into carpet products. Their competition in the market is from smaller players seeking to win new contracts and enter markets for the first time, with a strong contribution from the Asia-Pacific region with the highest expected annual growth rate in the carpet market to date. The year 2026. It is also expected that the movement of partnerships between the different players in the market will flourish and the completion of many mergers and acquisitions as an important tactic for developing and developing the growth process for companies.

Find out more about prayer rugs: their history, types, and cleaning methods When Ibn Battuta left Tangier in 1325 AD to start a long journey immortalized in history to explore the world, prayer rugs were one of the basic luggage that he carried with him wherever he went. This is how a Muslim does not dispense with establishing prayer, this important religious ritual at every time and place, so he carries with him what is necessary. To perform it to the fullest, above every earth and under any sky! Prayer rugs have been in existence since the Prophet Muhammad, peace and blessings of God be upon him, was enjoined to pray, as the five daily prayers should be performed on a clean surface. In this article, we invite you to learn more about prayer rugs, their characteristics, types, and how to take care of them.   What are prayer rugs? Prayer rugs are more than just an ordinary carpet, they carry a high symbolism for us Muslims, because they provide a protective layer between the worshiper and the ground that provides his clothes with the necessary purity to perform the prayer. The most common design that appeared since the beginning of Islamic history seems to include a mihrab in the form of a pointed arc at the upper end of the carpet, representing a point of direction, indicating the direction of the qiblah towards the Kaaba in Makkah Al-Mukarramah. Prayer rugs take the form of a vertical rectangle that is generally suitable for one person, unlike the prayer rugs that are used in mosques, which contain a drawing that embodies a row of arches so that each arch indicates the place where each worshiper must stand during prayer. The ancient history of prayer rugs Since ancient times, Muslim weavers have taken care of prayer rugs because, despite being a simple but important piece of cloth, they presented many creative improvisations in design, and each village and tribe created a specific spiritual meaning that it tried to embody in the design. With the flourishing of the oriental carpet industry during the Ottoman Empire, a lot of art and creativity entered the carpet industry, and prayer rugs became a national heritage. We notice this in the keenness of the rulers and leaders to assign the most skilled artists to make distinctive prayer rugs to present them as gifts to the rulers and other leaders, and some pieces of them reached Europe and the Far East, so they were considered valuable artifacts worth owning and might end up hanging like a painting in the wall of a house or palace. The most important characteristics of prayer rugs After we have taken a quick look at the history of prayer rugs, let us closely explore its most important characteristics in terms of design, size and material: First: the design All pieces of prayer rugs share the presence of the mihrab, which occupies a special place. The mihrab is the place on which the Muslim places his head during prayer. Sometimes the mihrab may be embodied with great accuracy similar to the shape of the mosque, and sometimes it comes in an abstract and symbolic form only. The mihrab in Persian carpets takes an elegant curved shape. And distinctive, while the Turkmen and Caucasian carpets embody the mihrab in a stable, more upright form. The design of prayer rugs is characterized by a clear Islamic sign that often embodies one of the Islamic sanctities, whether the Kaaba in Makkah Al-Mukarramah, the Prophet’s Mosque in Medina, or Al-Aqsa Mosque in Jerusalem. Many pieces of prayer rugs include some form of adornment, which is not only aesthetically pleasing, but carries a deep meaning, for example lit lamps symbolizing the light of the Qur’an, two hands symbolizing supplication, and a door symbolizing entry into heaven . There are restrictions on the shapes that are used in the design of prayer rugs, as it is not permissible to depict animate beings such as birds and animals, and the design in its entirety should be simple that does not distract the worshiper from reverence and contemplation of what he says. As for colors, prayer rugs come in different colors such as green, red, blue, purple and yellow. Second: the size The standard single prayer rug measures between 0.76m x 1.22m and 1.2m x 1.8m, and is long enough to cover the floor on which the worshiper prostrates, extending from one end on which the worshiper stands to the other end where he rests his head. This size fits the vast majority of worshipers, with the exception of people who are obese or very tall, as they prefer larger sizes that allow them to prostrate and sit completely freely away from touching the ground. Third: the material Prayer rugs are often made of cotton or silk, and the availability of cotton and silk contributes to the sale of prayer rugs at a low price. If you want a prayer rug that lasts longer and resists stains, choose carpets made of cotton. If you care about comfort and softness more, silk is the best choice because it is light and smooth underfoot. Besides, there are few prayer rugs that are made of wool. This type is the most expensive type, but it is also more rare. The underlayment plays an important role in the manufacture of carpets as well, as most weavers use a support layer of soft foam. This cushioning contributes to providing comfort to the worshiper and protecting the carpet from damage over time. As for the oldest materials from which carpets for prayer are made, they are palm trees, and it is the same material that the Prophet, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, used to pray on. Prayer rugs made of palm trees are very popular in almost every mosque, and the reason behind this is that they are the most simple and abstract type and suit the asceticism of Islamic culture. Prayer rugs may also be made of hemp and jute. We note from the various materials that we have mentioned that the basic quality criterion is that the rug settles on its own when laid out flat and does not tend to curl at the edges. Types of prayer rugs Prayer remains an essential pillar in the life of a Muslim, whether he is a child, a traveler, a patient, or others. Therefore, more than one type of prayer rug has been created to suit different needs and circumstances. Here are 6 of the most popular types of prayer rugs: Ordinary prayer rugs It is the most common type, it comes in the form of a thin fabric of cotton and polyester fibers without any lining, and because of the simplicity of manufacturing it is characterized by its reasonable prices and is available in most stores. Turkish prayer rugs It is an expensive type compared to regular carpets. It is characterized by elegant and luxurious Turkish design patterns and comes in many colors. It is one of the types of carpets that is durable and easy to clean. It is often made of wool. Physiological prayer rugs It is one of the latest innovations in prayer rugs, as it is designed with five layers to absorb weight and reduce pressure on different points in the body. The first layer consists of microfibers coated with a heat-resistant material, and an antibacterial surface that fights bacteria and fungi. While the central three layers handle and absorb the weight, the bottom layer has a slip and movement resistant surface. The developer of this innovative carpet called "Timez5" says that it used effective materials with high protective properties that were originally used in NASA astronauts' suits, which is of course reflected in the exorbitant cost of this type of prayer rug. Quilted carpet It is a carpet with medicinal properties designed to relieve any feeling of pain during prayer due to standing, sitting, prostrating, and pressure on the feet, knees, forehead, neck and back. It contains a spongy layer in the middle so that it supports the muscles and bones, which made it an ideal type for the elderly who suffer from arthritis, osteoporosis and spine diseases. Some cushioned prayer rugs have a layer of resilient foam that provides relief to areas of the body that come under pressure during prayer, making them ideal for praying on wooden surfaces and for people looking for a comfortable cushion-like surface to perform the prayer. The only note worthy of attention in this type of prayer rug is to ensure that the rug is not too high off the ground so as to prevent one from feeling it, as it is Islamically necessary for members such as the hands, feet, knees, and forehead to feel the ground under it during prostration, so attention must be paid before purchasing. Travel prayer rugs Regular prayer rugs come in a luxurious shape and take up a lot of space, so the prayer rugs that are suitable for travel are a tool for convenience in carrying and storing that makes praying while traveling easier. It is made of durable and lightweight materials and often comes with simple designs in terms of shapes and colors. The travel prayer rugs are distinguished Light in weight, easy to carry in luggage and can be used on any surface. Prayer rugs for children Similar to religious books and television programs directed to children in a simple and interesting way that sparks the curiosity of children’s developing minds towards exploring Islam in a natural way. This type of prayer rug is intended for young children, as it comes in small sizes that suit their short heights and thin bodies, with which the child feels that he owns a carpet of his own as he sees his father And his mother does, and then his association with this important ritual of the Islamic religion is strengthened. How to clean prayer rugs regularly Prayer rugs are one of the types of carpets that can last for many years if they are kept clean, especially in the presence of a bottom support that protects its surface from wear . It requires simple periodic maintenance that will make it last for years and keep its texture fresh and healthy all the time. The routine of taking care of prayer rugs includes cleaning it weekly with a vacuum cleaner, wrapping it after performing each prayer, and then placing it in a safe and clean place. In addition to the above, prayer rugs should be washed regularly, at least once a year. How to wash prayer rugs? Some types of prayer rugs, such as those made of silk, need dry cleaning, but most other types of prayer rugs can be washed by hand using the following steps: Use a carpet stain remover first to get rid of any stubborn stains. Follow the directions for use on the packaging to protect the fabric and get the best result. After getting rid of the stains, soak the prayer rugs in soapy water for at least half an hour, if the fabric is hard, soak it overnight until morning. You can also put it in the automatic washing machine and set it to the soaking programme. After you have finished soaking the carpet, place it in cold water and gently wash it in the water, then rinse it well. Roll the carpet several times and squeeze it by pressing it gently, avoiding squeezing it hard to keep it from being damaged. Hang to air dry, preferably out of direct sunlight to avoid any fading. Conclusion Regardless of the type, color, design and size, prayer rugs remain one of the most cherished items in the home, reflecting our close relationship with prayer and embracing our bodies like a pillow five times a day in the most precious of times that pass us by.

Practical guide: how to buy carpets online With the swipe and click of a button, buying everything online is possible, and carpets are not far behind. Buying rugs online is definitely a smart choice as it enables you to browse through hundreds of options from the comfort of your own home, while allowing ample time to find the perfect rug. Whether you want to grab the offers offered by online carpet stores, or you suffer from the scarcity of carpet sales centers near you, or you want to save time and effort, online shopping is the right solution for you. Since buying something visible and tangible online can be difficult for some, in this article we have taken care to demystify how to buy carpets online to help you make the right decision without any confusion. Consider the answers to the following questions and do some research first before adding rugs to your cart. First step: choose the appropriate format The shape of the room determines the shape of the carpet, so it is one of the primary considerations when buying carpets online. Think about the type of space that needs carpeting, is it a large area such as the hall and the majlis, or a small area such as the entrance to the house or one of the corners, or carpets for narrow corridors between rooms. Also keep in mind that the default option for the rooms is the rectangular carpet, which gives a sense of order and consistency with the clean lines of the rectangular room, and that the circular carpet is also an opportunity to add some softness and relaxation to the general appearance, especially if it is used as a carpet in the dining room, for example, so choose what suits your preferences . For example, visit Weft Carpet Store and then select the appropriate option as in the picture (large area, small area, circular, pedals, treads), in order to narrow the search for the appropriate quality. Step Two: Select the correct size Online rug stores have a wide range of sizes, so the important step now is sizing your rug to find the best fit. Think first, do you prefer the carpet to extend from wall to wall, or do you want it to take up a certain area in the room? The answer to this question will save you the hassle of lifting heavy furniture whenever you want to put or remove rugs. In light of the previous answer, determine the size of the carpet according to where it is placed in the room. If you intend to place it from wall to wall, leave about 45 cm of space between the edge of the carpet and the wall, which provides comfort to the eye and an illusion of room spaciousness. You may need to reduce a few centimeters if the room is relatively small, so rely on your intuition to determine the appropriate space between the carpet and the wall. But if you intend to put carpets in a specific area in the room, it is preferable to use the adhesive tape for paints to distinguish where to place the carpet and measure the area easily. Keep these standard rug sizing considerations in each room: Bedroom: Carpet should cover the space on both sides of the bed to provide a soft landing for your feet when you get up from it. Living room: At least two feet of all furniture (sofa and chairs) should be placed on the rug. Dining room: You should be able to slide the chair back away from the table without its feet rubbing against the edges of the rug. Corridors: The carpet should be slightly narrower than the corridor and slightly shorter than it. After selecting the appropriate size, use the filters on the website to choose the required size, if the size is not available, choose the larger or smaller size directly, and if you feel confused, choose the larger size, as the largest is always better in carpets. Third Step: Decide which method you prefer By style, we mean to think about your preferred taste in rug design. Do you prefer classic, modern, bohemian, or sadu style? By default, it is recommended that the design of the carpet style be chosen according to the style of the entire room or to its most prominent element or central piece of furniture. For example, if the room is decorated in a bohemian style, then the fringed rug will blend in easily with the room's decor, like this Bohemian Rawabi rug from Weft. However, in some cases it may be required that the carpet complement the other furniture and accessories in the room, for example the following cases: If the walls and furniture are plain without a lot of patterns, then modern carpets with bold shapes would be an appropriate choice, as well as ornate oriental carpets such as the classic red Scheherazade carpet from Weft. If the walls and furniture are full of ornaments or contain large patterns, choose soft-designed carpets, such as plain carpets or classic carpets in neutral colors. Step Four: Choose the carpet material Carpets are made of different materials , so when buying carpets online, you should think about the material of the carpet and not just its design, because the material will strongly affect maintenance, cleaning, and price. Since you will not be able to pass your fingers on it, read the material written in the product specifications, then choose the appropriate material in the light of the following tips: If the rug is going to be in a location with heavy use, or the family is big, or you are obsessed with cleanliness, or you have children, consider choosing a material that does not get dirty easily so that it can withstand the many activities that will be involved in it (children playing, cooking, eating, etc.). Synthetic fibers such as polyester and acrylic seem to be a better choice because they are easier to clean and stain resistant. If luxury, warmth, and style are your top priority, consider wool, which is more expensive and requires professional cleaning. Acrylic carpet gives a luxurious look, but it comes at a reasonable price. It is soft, durable, and resistant to pollution and staining. Polypropylene is the most popular material for carpets online. It is durable, easy to clean, and fits anywhere in the home and comes in endless designs. Cotton is a time-honored natural material, like wool, but it's affordable and easy to clean. Silk carpets are soft and smooth, yet delicate, so they are suitable for quiet places like the bedroom. Step 5: Thickness, deep or flat? When choosing rugs online you will need to think about the way they are woven according to them, is it made to be thick or flat? In the carpet properties on the Weft Store, you'll notice a "Carpet Thickness" field that shows how thick the carpet is or whether it's flat. Both deep carpets and flat carpets have distinct characteristics, which are known below: deep carpets The greater the thickness of the carpet, the more luxurious you will feel, in addition to that the long fibers will be softer, more comfortable and more flexible, as it is warmer and has a higher ability to insulate sound, so deep carpets are suitable for the bedroom and living room. Some pieces of thick carpets are woven at different heights to highlight the design and suggest an attractive carved effect and a three-dimensional appearance. The large thickness makes the complex design easier to implement. For the price, the thickness of the carpet is usually reflected in its price, as it is sold at a higher price, but it lasts for a long time. flat carpet Flat carpet consists of short fibers and is therefore a suitable choice for high-traffic areas, such as hallways, entrances to the house, and in front of doors, so as not to hinder them in opening and closing. Flat carpets are also an ideal choice for placing under furniture because they are more resistant to shattering. Flat carpets are also a safe option if someone in the house uses a cane, a walker, or a wheelchair, as it provides low edges that are difficult to stumble upon, but if the décor style includes a lot of brick, metal, and wood, flat carpets will blend easily with these hard surfaces. . Step Six: Think about your color palette Now, with one of the most important criteria that you rely on when buying carpets, which is choosing colors, you can browse carpets online based on their color. For example, if you are looking for carpets of a specific color such as red, blue, black, or multi-colored, choose the desired color to filter the search to this. the color. There is more than one strategy that you can adopt to determine the appropriate carpet colors: Choose a light carpet color to give the illusion of spaciousness Light colors generally give a sense of openness and spaciousness, so they are suitable colors for carpeting small rooms and narrow corridors. Choose a dark color to hide the spots Despite the splendor and splendor of light colors in carpets, their main drawback is the clear appearance of stains and dirt among the light pile fibers. This is why dark-colored carpets are very practical if you do not want to worry about repeated stains due to spills, stains, or the presence of children. Choose colors that are in harmony with the room's furniture The harmony of carpet colors with room furniture indicates elegance in choice and high taste in coordination, so carpet colors can be chosen to be in harmony with room furniture. There are two directions in this context, choose what suits you: The first trend: This trend prefers to rely on neutral colors and small delicate patterns that act as a piece of white cloth, with which any color of pillows, lamps, covers, and the rest of the colorful components of the room merges, such as white, black, beige, and gray neutral colors. The second trend: This trend gives carpets the helm in defining the room's color inspiration palette, so the colors of the room's accessories are chosen to match with it, such as pillows, wall panels, and chandeliers.   In conclusion, buying carpets online saves time and money instead of going to multiple stores, just remember while you are shopping to enjoy decorating the house and to choose a carpet that you like to use for a long time, and enjoy it.

Are you thinking of installing carpets yourself, or maybe you found a carpet that you like but you want to know if it is within your budget? Here are some helpful tips that will help you decide how much carpeting you need. Draw a simple outline of the room First, use a tape measure, calculator, pencil, and paper and draw a simple outline of the room you want to carpet. The outline doesn't have to be perfect, but be as accurate as possible with the measurements. If the room is square or rectangular, it can easily be calculated by multiplying the width by length to obtain the required area, for example 5m x 4m equals 20 square meters of carpet. Corners, grills and large windows If the room or space contains corners, grills, or large windows that reach the floor, you will need to measure at the longest and widest point. The carpet will be cut later to fit the space. Hall, stairs and landing Be careful when it comes to the stairs or the entrance. Measure the height and depth of each staircase to give you the length before multiplying by the width. This will give you the area of ​​each step. Don't forget to allow 10% more in the measurements in case of any error, because measuring stairs can be a tricky process. And with a hallway or hallways where you have stairs leading down, be sure to measure around the edges on the ladder. Gross figure If you are adding carpeting to one room, getting the final quantity you need should be fairly easy. If you are placing the same carpeting in more than one area, measure each area individually, mark on the plan, and add them together at the end to get based on the total quantity of carpet that you need. Measure again! To avoid errors, we recommend that you measure twice to make sure you get the correct sizes. [Translated by adaptation from the website cormarcarpets.co.uk ]

What we do not know about carpets What do you know about the carpets in your home? You probably don't know as much about that soft texture as you think, what we do know for sure is that rugs are found in almost every space in the house, but how much do you really know about rugs? Nine facts about carpets The word “carpet” comes from the Latin word “carpere” which means “to pluck”, and this information can be supported by the fact that the first forms of carpets were made of fluffed fabrics. Some carpets are known to be made of recycled plastic, others are made of wool, and this wool can sometimes be home to beetle larvae, which have chemicals in their stomachs that turn wool into sugars, which is why insects eat carpets, such as Sweets are eaten! It prevents allergens from spreading in the air inside the room, because these materials collect inside and under the carpet all the time. Ultimately, these dust and dust particles can be easily removed with a vacuum cleaner or with professional cleaning in carpet cleaning laundries. The bacteria can live for more than four weeks on carpet (and other floor surfaces), and can transfer to any food once the surface of the carpet is touched. Which makes people who underestimate eating food after it falls on the carpet to reconsider. Carpets and small carpeted spaces are actually healthier than hardwood floors because they trap allergens instead of spreading them throughout the space, plus the spaces feel great after you put the rugs in! Carpets should be professionally cleaned at least every 9 to 12 months to maintain their appearance and improve indoor air quality. Carpet making is a very old trade dating back to BC, and a skill that requires mastery and ingenuity to this day. In the beginning, vacuum cleaners were hard to sell when they were first offered for commercial use because people didn't think there could be so much dirt in their carpets! Not only is a carpet a piece of art, a unique piece of furniture, or a comfort for your feet, but it also has health benefits as it actually helps prevent allergens if maintained properly.
