The images we display have the most accurate colors possible, but please note that rug colors, sizes, and patterns may vary slightly depending on the individual weaving process and the size ordered. Due to different monitor resolutions and lighting, you may notice a slight difference in color. Remember, each handmade rug is unique to the artisan who wove it, and these variations are not considered defects.

Bunching, creases, and folded corners are common when you first unroll your new rug. These waves will flatten within 2-3 weeks as you begin to use your rug. Here are some tricks to help flatten it:

Back Rolling: Roll the carpet out, then roll it back up reversely with the backside up. Let it sit rolled up reversely for a day or two, or until it flattens out.

Heavy Objects: Lay a piece of heavy furniture or objects on affected areas for a day or two, or until it flattens out. If the corners are sticking up, curl them back and place heavy objects on the affected areas going the opposite way.

Heat: Use this technique as a last resort only. Place the rug over a cleared concrete or area like a driveway or sidewalk, setting it during dry, sunny conditions. Allow the rug to be positioned for optimal sunlight for up to 2 hours, or more if needed, to give the rug time to absorb the sun's heat.

Blow Dryer: If a large concrete patch with optimal sunlight is not accessible, flip the rug over and use a hair dryer on the affected areas to heat up the creases. Always hold the hair dryer 7 to 12 inches away from the rug, going side to side on a medium setting, as heat can sometimes cause the backing to melt.

Our refreshingly lightweight cotton rugs are perfect for dining rooms, living rooms, kitchens, entryways, and bedrooms, but should be sheltered from direct sunlight. The 0.35" thickness allows for convenient placement in entryways and underneath furniture.

Handmade rugs should be treated more carefully than machine-made rugs. We recommend shaking out dirt or debris and spot-treating mild stains. To provide extra cushioning and prevent any possible slipping and sliding on your flooring, we recommend using a rug pad. Rug pads serve as a protective layering piece for your floor and your rug, extending the life of your rug.
