NO matter what style of decoration is appealing to you, a wall rug or carpet,can help transform your living room or bedroom. A carpet not only warms up a hard and cold floor, it also introduces new colours and patterns over the existing one-colour flooring.
When re-arranging a room, you can move it around to fit in your new style or role it up and store it away, says Sarah Nakidde, an interior designer in Wandegeya.
There are two types of carpets on the market – the machine and handmade. The machine made carpets can be got in any size and in various textures. They are usually cheaper and made in big quantities with different styles.
The difference between tuff and wooven rugs is that wooven carpets tend to be more hard-wearing and strong since they are made with the pile-face wooven backing, which is sewn into the backing material.
Hand-made rugs also vary in size. They are usually made in natural yarns like wool, silk and can be very expensive, depending on the material used.
Their materials vary, some are made of wool, camel skin, silk or cotton, but wool is the most commonly used. That is why most of them can retain warmth which is a great advantage over machine-made carpets.
You can change the look of your house and get a carpet that suits your style. Remember quality is always appreciated than quantity.
