Finding The Right Sheepskin Rug For Your Floor

By Faith Greenly


Rugs are often found in either living rooms or bedrooms. These are made more special if people learn that these stylish rugs are made of fibers from sheep's wool.

Sheep skin rugs are manufactured using authentic wool from sheep. There are a number of varieties that can range from affordable to pretty expensive and thus extra care should be taken when washing these rugs. Though their natural color is a soft white, they can be dyed in any color to suit your preference.

In buying sheep skin rugs, you have to consider the place where they are manufactured. Known to be of good quality are those coming from Australia, New Zealand and United Kingdom.

The reason they can produce quality rugs is due to the quality of their sheep. These countries have invested a lot and specialize in breeding sheep that produces high quality wool. The wool is softer but the fibers are stronger which is why they last a lot longer than others.

The real sheep fiber does not feel like plastic. If it looks and feels like plastic, it probably is a fake sheep fiber rug. The real sheep fiber is soft and smooth.

The rugs are made in a variety of sizes so be sure to know what size rug you need to fill in your space on the floor. If you chose the right one, then all that is left to do is enjoy the soft and inviting comfort it provides. Most likely, people in your house will at one point or another, find an excuse to sit on it.

Taking good care of your sheep rug is to be maintained if you want it to last it for a longer time. Using a dry cleaner could be fine, but if you are using an automatic washer, do not forget to read the instructions carefully or else you will lose your investment.

You can use a vacuum cleaner in cleaning your sheep rugs. Complete cleaning up your sheep rugs can be done in a regular basis. However, if you don't have vacuum cleaner, you can use a wire comb brush to wipe out the dust and plump up the fur.
