How to lay an area rug over
a carpet
If you’ve got a room carpeted from
wall to wall but you still want to enhance the décor with additional area rugs,
we’ve got some cues for you! Area rugs lend off a more personalized, enhanced
look to any space, making it appear more lively and complete. At times area
rugs also help you cover any stain marks that may have been left on the base
carpet. Sometimes those stains get hard to remove and area rugs come to the
rescue. Certain individuals are also passionate about their rug collection,
wanting to display their prized possessions in their homes. However, knowing
how and where to place an area rug over a base carpet is a significant aspect
that people should know.
Since an area rug is placed over a
base rug, without being fixed, it has a tendency to move, shift or ‘ripple’,
posing risks of individuals tripping over it. To prevent this from happening,
try stabilizing the rug with heavy furniture that will hold the rug from
all sides. You can always place an area rug under a center table to make it
look appealing.
