I needed a break. I don’t just blog about rugs for a living. I actually run one of the largest Internet websites dealing excusively with area rugs in the world. I have over 90,000 rugs on our site. It’s a seven day, 15 hour a day job. Try fitting in 100 or more articles about rugs in the middle of all this and you can easily burn out.

Sitting here today, I decided this would be the perfect time for my come back, so here I go. My come back is going to be gradual. No heavy lifting, just a slow transition back to blogging about rugs. So here’s some real good information I’m sure you’ve never thought about! The economy stinks. Gas costs $4.40 a gallon. Don’t try to sell your house, and if you do, be ready to lose 50% of its highest value. Business is horrible and I’m thoroughly depressed. How’s that for blogging about rugs.

Nevertheless people want rugs. Business goes on. There are tons of new rugs and new collections on our site and more are coming. We are very optimistic about the future and, as a result, making lots of changes to our website. We are investing in the future of those wholesalers who can bring us new cutting edge product that will be a fine addition to the great rugs we already carry.

If you feel like me, a little down in the dumps, go ahead and buy some rugs. I guarantee it will make the both of us happy.

The only rule that should be absolutely adhered to is, if there is any humidity in the space, when you pick out your rugs make sure they are synthetic. The area rugs should be either polypropylene or olefin or nylon. Do not under any circumstances use wool if their is even a hint of humidity in the room. The wool will absorb the moisture and your rugs will take on a musty scent. They might even feel damp to the touch. On the other hand, synthetics will not do this, so obviously, only consider area rugs that are best for the application. With the use of rugs, your basement can be as beautiful as you wish.

There really is no difference at all as it relates to the design ideas one would consider whether your flooring is carpet, wood or tile. If your carpet is a solid color, you are free to choose any color rugs you like. If your carpet has multiple colors or a distinct pattern, your rugs have to be more compatible with the flooring in order for the finished result to look great.

There are however, some very important factors to take into account before choosing your area rugs when placing them on carpeting. The first thing you have to take into consideration is the thickness of the carpet in your home. In order to pick the correct rug, you need to first determine whether your carpet is flat and tight, medium pile or has a heavy thicker pile. The reason for making this determination is because your carpet is almost assuredly going to compress beneath your area rugs. When this happens, the rugs on top are going to move, so its important to try to counteract this from happening.

If your carpeting is of a commercial type, that is very flat and won’t compress when walked on, you can use any kind of rugs you like. However, if your carpet compresses under foot from your weight, you can basically rule out using thin hand knotted rugs, flat weaves and most machine made rugs. Your options at this point will be heavier hand tufted rugs because their thickness will prevent them, to a much greater degree, from moving. Even in these cases, your rugs will tend to bunch up a bit when continuously walked on, but it’s not really a problem. Every once in a while, you’ll need to bend over and give the area rugs a tug on one end and they will return to the ideal position.

When using rugs on carpet never use a rug pad. They make pads for rugs with the claim they are specifically for use on top of carpet, but they don’t work. More specifically, none of the pads work based upon their claim. A 175 pound person stepping on rugs which are sitting on carpet are not going to stand still because of a little adhesive on both sides of the pad.

The last option to prevent your rugs from moving is this. If your area rugs are small enough, something like 5′x8′, you can go to a Home Depot and get a piece of thin plywood just thick enough to support your weight. Cut the plywood slightly smaller than your rug. Place the plywood under the rug and now use a non skid pad. Your weight will be dispersed over a large area and the compression will not create movement from your area rugs. If you do this, you can use any kind of rugs you desire.

Rugs on carpet are a great look. It’s a slight imposition to get it done right, but it’s easily worth the effort. Your sure to love the finished look.

There is however another design theme that works beautifully. The concept is to use solid colored rugs regardless of whether your furnishings are busy or not. The area rugs you will be looking for can be more or less textural depending upon the specific look you are trying to create. What I mean by textural is that, lets say, shag rugs are very textural looking or rugs that are made from a heavy loop construction would be another example of a textural look. On the other hand, rugs that have a flat cut pile finish, and are solid colored, will not display much texture.

If you are designing around busy looking furnishings, you can choose solid area rugs that go in either direction. If you like more dimension in your room, use the rugs that show more contexture. If you want a more subtle approach, look for area rugs that are flatter and incorporate a cut pile finish.

One of the most beautiful applications for area rugs that are one solid color is when they are used in a sleek contemporary to modern room setting. The picture would be that of a sharp monochromatic look. The fabrics used in these design applications are usually solid, or at most, very sheer in appearance. A good example of this would be very light leather couches or contemporary couches displaying white Haitian cotton. On these occasions, I love to use solid area rugs. The look is flat out monochromatic and creates a rich clean feeling.

So bear in mind that a solid rug, if used correctly, can produce a perfect look. We have dozens of them for you to look at.

I had a couple come into my brick and mortar location just yesterday. They were with their interior designer and loaded with all the fabrics they were going to use in order to coordinate the rugs they were looking at. We looked at many beautiful area rugs and finally came across the perfect fit. It was a 100 knot Tibetan hand knotted rug produced from wool and silk. The rug was gorgeous and worked perfectly with the fabrics.

The customer, however, was not so sure. She noticed a distinctive abrash in most of the rugs she had looked at and asked the designer if these area rugs were damaged. Abrash is an uneven variegated look displaying different and uneven tones of the same colors. This desirable feature comes about because the wool used to knot the rugs is dyed in small batches. Each batch takes on varying degrees of dye lots. As a result the area rugs take on this unevenness as it relates to its color.

This look is beautiful and typifies many Tibetan hand knotted rugs, yet the customer thought these rugs were damaged. She was expecting to see a rug reminiscent of something machine made in Dalton, Georgia. Even in these cases, companies create some rugs that display the abrash effect in order to have them look like their high end knotted counterparts. I understood her confusion, but honestly, It was hard to explain why rugs that looked damaged to her ranked among the finest and most beautiful rugs obtainable.

Being a rug buyer, I have purchased tens of millions of dollars of area rugs of all styles and qualities. I have developed an appreciation for all types of rugs including less expensive machine made synthetic specimens. You see, a finely constructed, beautifully crafted machine made rug is something I can truly appreciate.

Area rugs, which today are produced using state of the art tufting techniques can rival certain lower priced hand knotted rugs. I marvel at just how beautifull these rugs look and the quality standards used in their creation.

Of course, as a buyer, my favorite rugs are traditional finely hand knotted oriental rugs. My great appreciation, however, extends to all styles of fine hand knotted rugs. Most people reading this post never realize how much work, fine detail and extraordinary craftsmanship goes into producing hand knotted area rugs. So my first love are the rugs that are produced by artisans as talented as top tier professionals that would be found in any profession.

So to sum it up, I appreciate area rugs of all styles and qualities as long as they are produced with the highest standards employed relative to the manufacturing type or process being used. You see, rugs are simply beautiful.

Foreign Accents is a different kind of company. They have reinvented their collections of rugs many times over, in order to keep pace with the ever changing landscape which the industry for area rugs presents. Foreign Accents is a company that keeps a low profile and a concept of low overhead. They do not show their rugs in fancy showrooms in places like High Point or Las Vegas. They have consolidated their operation to the point where their area rugs are not showcased at the major “Rug Market” held in Atlanta.

Because Foreign Accents has been in the business of rugs for over twenty years, most retailers of area rugs are very familiar with the company and the products they produce. If you are a retailer of rugs, more than likely you’ll be kept closely abreast of their offerings of area rugs via beautifully photographed brochures. Even here, the brochures depict their rugs wonderfully, but the mailing is done in such a way that Foreign Accents places a premium on low cost budgets.

All of this seeming frugality is done with a sole purpose in mind. Foreign Accents brings the consumer of area rugs high quality products at an unbelievably low cost. While their rugs are displayed on our site under the Foreign Accents brand name, don’t be fooled by the fact that their rugs are displayed in only five different collections. While they offer numerous area rugs, they are grouped by the type of construction used to create the rugs as well as the type of yarn employed.

Foreign Accents Rugs has chosen to use three different yarn systems to create all of their rugs. These include polypropylene, wool, and modified acrylic. Due to the exceptional construction methods employed, in combination with near microscopic quality control, the rugs are rich and beautiful regardless of the fiber content you chose. Foreign Accents uses only two constructions. Their rugs are either hand tufted or machine made.

The new collections of rugs includes the “Bistro Collection”. These rugs are machine made of polypropylene and include gorgeous modern designs. “Festival” are hand tufted area rugs produced from 100% mod acrylic. The rugs from this collection include both spectacular modern, as well as contemporary designs. By all means, don’t overlook “Cirque”. The “Cirque Collection” is comprised of rugs all round in shape, displaying great modern motifs. These area rugs are hand tufted from 100% mod acrylic.

If your looking for spectacular modern and contemporary rugs at price points that you can easily afford, check out the rugs from Foreign Accents.

The reason for the duplication is that there are few manufacturers of rugs that carry programmed lines and can deliver numerous sizes of the same rugs in an expedient fashion. You see, programmed rugs simply are designs that are constantly being produced, are available in multiple sizes and are almost always in stock with the rugs manufacturer.

Retail sellers of rugs, particularly department stores, sell area rugs as an ancillary offering and are truly not “rug people”. So what happens is that they seek out the same manufacturers who can offer them selections of area rugs that are the easiest to acquire and are usually available when ordered.

On the internet, there are some websites who also carry a limited number of brand names, but people like ourselves are rug people. We know our product, and we know every manufacturer in the industry for area rugs on a personal level. We know where to get the rugs, how to get the rugs, and how to insure you get the greatest possible selection.

We sell nearly as many modern rugs as we do oriental rugs. We deliver equal amounts of contemporary area rugs when compared to traditional styles. Today’s tastes in rugs range across the entire spectrum. So it truly comes down to personal preference. It’s what you expect from your rugs that matters, and that’s all that matters.

So the emphasis is placed on quantity, diversity and price. The internet is easily your best place to get all three. It would be pretty hard to find 90,000 rugs in a retail store, but on the internet it’s pretty easy. If you do your shopping for area rugs on the correct website, you’ll get to experience what it’s like to view thousands upon thousands of rugs in every quality and style. You won’t be limited to, perhaps as few as 100 choices, which often times you will find sitting on your neighbors living room floor.

By far, the greatest number of new rugs are made from a hand tufted construction. Hand tufted rugs are relatively easy to manufacture from a standing start. What I mean is, if a manufacturer of rugs wants to design a new rug from scratch, the hand tufted method is the fastest way to complete the process.

When producing rugs that are machine made, it is quite an ordeal. Looms have to be re-created to accommodate size, color and design. It can take as long as a year to generate all of the ingredients necessary to produce fine quality representations of these rugs. In the case of rugs that are hand knotted, it can be equally difficult to develop the product. First you have to find the country equipped to create the quality you are aiming for. Then you have to develop intricate designs, color pallets and more. Weaving costs have become very expensive and the cost of importing and housing inventory is at all time highs.

Rugs that are hand tufted are certainly not the only, or even the best option, but they clearly offer a great choice for the average consumer looking for the perfect rug at the right price. Hand tufted rugs can be produced quickly, at very affordable price points and look great. These rugs can be manufactured in nearly every country from around the world including the USA. The costs involved for the importers of these quality rugs are on par, or a little higher, than most machine made rugs. Most importantly, they can be produced quickly and cost effectively.

Since the rugs are handmade, there is no extraordinary or complicated looming issues such as what you might encounter with rugs that are machine made. There are production facilities around the world ready to hand tuft your line of rugs on an expedient basis. Labor costs are fairly reasonable. Construction methods have evolved to the point where the quality of tufted rugs is at an all time high.

Actually, production methods have become so good with hand tufted rugs that many consumers would not be able to tell the difference between fine quality rugs that are tufted versus moderate priced hand knotted rugs. The stocking issue is also a huge benefit because costs are so reasonable compared to other quality options.

Nearly every manufacturer has unveiled many new collections of rugs that are constructed using state of the art tufting technology. Feizy Rugs, Momeni Rugs, Trans-Ocean Rugs, the list goes on and on. Today’s consumers, looking for affordable quality rugs, have more options now than ever before.

Feizy Rugs is a pioneer in the importation of fine rugs, generally of hand knotted qualities. The owner of the company, John Feizy, is as close to an icon, when talking about rugs as one can get. Frankly speaking, Mr. Feizy probably knows more about rugs than anyone in the field. Originally from Persia, Mr. Feizy is intimately involved in the country best known for producing many of the finest rugs in the world.

Feizy Rugs has probably imported more fine quality area rugs to the United States than any other company in the business. As impressive as any of Mr. Feizy’s accomplishments is the fact that after all of these decades in the industry, he still maintains a strong passion for the area rugs which he creates. Years ago, after dealing exclusively with rugs that are hand knotted, Feizy Rugs branched out and created their “Home Collection”. This is a distinct division that has grown enormously over the years and primarily deals with more moderately priced rugs. Most of the area rugs in the “Home Collection” are machine made, hand tufted or moderate priced hand knotted rugs.

The rugs in the “Home Collection” have evolved over the last five years to the point where the quality of these area rugs rank among the finest available. Feizy has mastered the art of producing moderate to less expensive rugs at price points affordable to nearly everyone.

It is with this excellence of quality and design in mind that Feizy Rugs has deleted certain collections and added fifteen new collections of fabulous area rugs sure to be of great interest to today’s home decorator. This evolution began in the year 2000 with the creation of “Covtex Feizy” This started as a new division utilizing the most modern construction techniques. It exists today in state of the art facilities in Gaziantep, Turkey and Sibiu, Romania.

The new collections of area rugs may be seen right now on the Feizy brand name page. The collections are so diverse that you must see the enormity of the complete selection of the new rugs offered. Again, they include machine made synthetics, hand tufted wool, and hand knotted wool rugs. The styles range from traditional to oriental to modern and include every genre available.

Just to start your journey, be sure to take a close look at the “Astoria Collection”. This is a bordered look using faux silk featuring a simple but beautiful style. Also take a look at the “Chic Collection”. This incredible collection is completely hand made of fine wools and silk. The collection is wonderfully and ornately designed in India.

The Karastan name is synonymous with exceptional quality in rugs. It is truly one of the only branded names in the industry for rugs and is a product that over the years has, in many cases, been handed down from one generation to another. The rugs manufactured by Karastan are painstakingly produced from 100% wool, crafted in the USA, and are accompanied by a 20 year limited warranty.

Karastan began manufacturing their rugs in 1928. During that time, Karastan was able to produce a loom that was capable of creating rugs with a distinct intricacy of design rivaling much more expensive rugs that were hand knotted. Not only did their rugs prove to be equally beautiful, but their durability favorably competed with hand knotted area rugs as well. To prove the point, Karastan placed one of their rugs at the 1933 World Fair. Over 5 million people were allowed to walk over the area rug. The rug still exists today, looks as if it were manufactured yesterday, showing little to no signs of wear, and remains on exhibit.

Every Karastan area rug is included in the National Karastan Month sale which is held only twice yearly. Included in the event are the new rugs which are part of the very beautiful “Shapura” collection as well as the spectacular and colorful motifs of the rugs within “Sierra Mar”. Also included in this sensational sales event are the beautiful rugs within the “Artworks” collection. Artworks is the only collection of rugs manufactured by Karastan which employs a hand tufted construction.

This is your chance to purchase any of the beautiful area rugs produced by Karastan at a simply great price. Don’t miss this limited opportunity.
