It is not recommended that you put natural fiber rugs in areas with moisture and humidity. These areas can cause the natural area rugs to expand or shrink causing damage to your rug. Therefore, the kitchen, bathroom, and basement are not good areas to place your rug. Try the living room, bedroom, or home office. If you do live in a particularly humid area, we suggest purchasing a spray protector to help the rug from absorbing moisture.

Wool rugs are a bit harder to clean than other natural fiber rugs. Begin by beating your wool rug outside with a rug beater. It’s important that you beat it hard to get out all the dirt that may be embedded in the rug. Then, proceed to sweep your rug and vacuum it twice a week. If the wool rug is placed in a high traffic area it’s recommended that the rug owner rotates the rug 180 degrees every month. If the wool rug is in a low traffic area, once a year is more than enough.

Steam cleaning is recommended twice a year, but only use water. If a spill occurs blot it up immediately with paper towels. Rubbing the stain can cause the wool to become matted over time. If a stain is particularly tough use a cleaning foam or Woolite. Never use oxygen based cleaners. These cleaners are extremely harsh and can damage your rug.

Cowhide patchwork rugs are bought for their texture and their uniqueness. No two cowhide patchwork rug is the same. Unlike the other rugs mentioned, cowhide patchwork rugs are a little harder to maintain. We don’t recommend putting a cowhide patchwork rug in a high traffic area as it will wear the rug down quickly. We also don’t recommend placing your rug in a sunny area as the sun can cause the color in your rug to fade.

Do not dry clean or machine wash your cowhide patchwork rug. Instead, brush it with a hard plastic brush. This will keep the hair soft and fluffy while removing dirt. To clean, wipe the rug with a damp cloth with mild soap. Make sure the cloth is not wet and the soap does not contain alkaline. Do not soak the rug. After you’ve cleaned it, it is important to vacuum it or give it a good shake to get out any dirt that may still be in the rug. Spill do occur and it’s important to blot up the spill with a sponge or paper towel immediately. If the stain is persistent we recommended using mild soap.

The rugs we sell are durable and are known for their longevity. When taken care of they will last you for many years. Whether you purchase a seagrass, jute, or cowhide patchwork rug, it’s important to follow these instructions carefully to get the most out of your rug.

Custom-cut rugs are pretty common as many homeowners already have an idea of how their rug will look before they begin shopping. When they can't find their ideal rug they can turn to a rug store, such as Natural Home Rugs and purchase a customized rug to meet their needs.

Although we excel at making earth friendly rugs, we unfortunately cannot read your mind. Therefore, when customizing your rug, we will need some more information. Besides rugs we can also customize stair treads and rug pads.

We will start by first asking you what type of rug you have envisioned. Whether you'd like it to be rectangular, round, oval, or octagon, we can make it happen. Next, select what width and length you want your custom-cut rug to be. It can be up to 12 feet in width and 30 feet in length.

It's recommended that you get a border on your rug to keep it intact. We have 13 different options for you to choose from. Whether you decide on Cherry Jubilee or Fossil there are many different colors to choose from.

Next select the type of carpet you want. With over 50 to choose from, we're sure you'll find the one you love. From sisal rugs to seagrass rugs, there is a rug for everyone. When designing your rug, you can also choose the width of the carpet border and whether or not you want a standard or mitered corner.

What's so great about Natural Home Rugs' custom-cut rugs is that you can view your rug before your purchase it. This way you can make sure it's the rug you have envisioned in your head. And if it's not? With so many other options, you can easily tweak the details to fit your needs.

When all is said and done, you can view how much your newly designed rug will cost and ultimately purchase it. Once purchased, rugs ship out in three to seven business days from our Los Angeles Warehouse. We regret at this time that we cannot ship to Army Post Office, Fleet Post Office, P.O. Boxes, or to Guam.

Before ordering, please keep in mind we are unable to accept returns on customized items at this time. Therefore, please make sure you are satisfied with the rug before your purchase it.
