How to Create a Balanced and Harmonious Look with Cowhide Rugs in Feng Shui Decor

 Cow Hides Rugs are an ideal way to add warmth, texture and that all-important sense of style to your home. A cowhide floor mat or runner will look just as at home in a modern, open plan living space as it would in an old-fashioned sitting room. A cowhide rug is also easy to care for. Unlike many wool or silk rugs, it doesn’t need to be treated with harsh chemicals. A little bit of regular vacuuming and occasional light brushing to remove loose hair will keep it looking its best. And if you do happen to spill something on it, the natural hide will repel it rather than absorb it and set it in for good.



Cowhide Rugs 

Cowhide rugs are very durable and can easily cope with the general wear and tear of family life. In fact, they can be used in rooms that get a lot of foot traffic, such as children’s bedrooms or even playrooms, with no loss of appearance. They are hard-wearing enough to be nailed, stapled or Velcroed to the wall without causing permanent damage, as long as the nails are small and the adhesive is strong. In fact, more and more of our customers are taking a leaf out of the caveman’s book and hanging their cowhide rugs on the wall, either in a gallery-style arrangement or as part of their bedroom furniture.

Brazilian cowhides

When choosing a cowhide rug, take the time to carefully consider the color you’re after. There are many options, from a subtle brindle to the rich reddish-brown of Hereford hides. Alternatively, you might prefer the black and white of some Brazilian cowhides or the soft gray of a Scandinavian-style design. Then, once you’ve narrowed down your choice, take the time to lay it out flat and see how it looks. The color will soon brighten up and any wrinkles will disappear with time.

Cowhide rug to iron out any wrinkles

You might be tempted to run a cool iron over your cowhide rug to iron out any wrinkles, but be careful not to get the iron too hot or you could singe the hairs. If you need to, try running a damp cloth over the surface of your cowhide rug.

Environmentally responsible manner

If you’re not quite ready to commit to a whole cowhide rug, why not start small with a pair of cowhide lampshades or some placemats? They’re the perfect way to introduce your taste for this beautiful material into your home, and you can be confident that you’ve chosen to use a product that was made in a morally and environmentally responsible manner.

Conclusion

When it comes to buying a Cow Hides Rugs, the most important thing is that you pick one that makes you feel happy and comfortable in the space that it’s in. Then, once you’ve got the hang of using this versatile accessory, it’s just a matter of working out how to incorporate it into every room in your home.

How to Enhance the Warmth and Coziness of Your Space with Hand-Tufted Rugs

Image
  There is a lot of confusion about what does and doesn't constitute a "hand-knotted" rug. The main differences are cost and value. Hand Tufted Rugs tend to be less expensive than hand-knotted rugs but don't hold as much heirloom value because they aren't one of a kind. They also don't last as long as hand-knotted rugs because they don't have the same durability. They have more of a disposable nature and are made to match current trends which can be changed out in a few years.  A "tufting gun" to punch the strands into the canvas In terms of construction, the difference between hand-tufted and hand-knotted rugs is that hand-tufted rugs are made by placing yarn or wool on a canvas stretched over a frame. A textile worker then uses a "tufting gun" to punch the strands into the canvas. This process is not as labor intensive or time-consuming as hand-knotting. The rug then has a protective foundation of either latex glue or cloth placed on...
