Braided rugs bring about a rustic world charm and elegance and some of the more contemporary designs are very attractive that an ordinary space is dramatically converted into a lush royal suite immediately braided rugs are spread out neatly on the floor. Braided rugs can become the focal point of attraction for the entire room, particularly if artistically spread out in a room with a country décor interior design.

Many people prefer using braided rugs in entryways, patios, dining rooms, and the kitchen — In other words, high traffic areas. This only means that your braided rugs are subject to wear and tear and lots of dirt and will need cleaning regularly lest they become the source of a not-so-good smell which will affect the entire ambience of your room. Braided rugs can be made of cotton or wool, but be advised that cleaning cotton braided rugs requires the use of more water as grime and dirt tend to stick more strongly than in wool.

Here is how to clean your wool braided rugs

1. You start off by meticulously vacuuming both sides of your rugs, which should then be followed by laying the rugs on a large sheet of plastic in order to protect the floor beneath.
2. Take a carpet cleaning machine, one that sends out jets of water and then start sucking the rugs up. Be very cautious not to use carpet cleaners with rotating brushes as they will ruin your braided rugs.
3. Take a mild rug cleaner, put in lukewarm water and thoroughly clean both sides of your braided rugs.
4. Add more water until all soap is completely rinsed off and then suck out as much water as possible
5. Leave your braided rugs to dry on the spread-out plastic.
6. Turn your rugs over a few times to make sure that all sides are completely dry. Be advised that wet wool rugs can be very heavy and besides, they will produce a foul smell if they are spread out in the house if they aren’t completely dry.
7. Be careful when leaving your rugs out to dry so that they don’t lose their shape. Keep the rugs on the flat plastic sheet for as long as possible until you are completely sure they are indeed dry.

There you have it, you should have a nice clean wool rug, ready to be paced anywhere in your home.
