By Gary Jackson


With the right materials and skills, one can transform the look of anything, even the way that the home or house looks, or the rooms within. Of course this can be all expensive or all cheap, all depending of course on the price and cost of the materials being used. For interior decoration it can be practical to use faux fur area rugs. This article should provide some useful information for you how about this decorative and practical article.

Prior to your purchase of a faux fur rug you should get to know a bit of its qualities so that you can make a more informed decision. Once you are fully armed with information you can make a decision that is more advantageous to you. This article will include some advantages and disadvantages that you may encounter should you decide on getting this item.

Look out for ones that are made of fine acrylic fibers, meaning get rugs made out of this material. This will ensure that it will not release a lot of fiber when it is stroked or handled. Read also the material label to know what it is made of but be aware that sometimes faux rugs will contain a bit of either dog or cat fur.

When it comes to false rug manufactures and creations, there is a plethora of designs and patterns to choose from. Most popular animal designs come in the form of zebra, fox, leopard, chinchilla, mink and bear. Whatever the design, ensure that it fully complements or contrasts the room you are using it properly and not to detract to the overall effect you are trying to achieve. Always remember that area rugs are kept on the floor and not hung on walls as some are opt to do.

When getting a faux rug, your conscience is free form the fact that an animal was killed to get its fur. As an added bonus, it is easier to maintain and is washable, and so will not stink like the real thing as time goes by. They are less prone to wear and tear, are moth resistant and hypoallergenic.

Coming in many sizes and shapes, you will be spoilt for choice when choosing a specific size and design, and if it does not exist, can have one custom made to your specifications. This flexibility is what makes it a good choice for would be and seasoned interior decorators.

Most probably the best thing about it is the price. Compared to the real thing it is way much cheaper, and you can buy it online and have it shipped anywhere in the world. The advantage of having this shipped worldwide without any wildlife clearances and bonuses is an added boon.

Although more durable, it cannot provide as much heat as the real thing, so basically it is really just for decorative purposes rather than practical ones. In extreme cold it will have a tendency to freeze and crack. Low quality rugs will also feel more like cotton than like fur and it is also good to note that while it does save animal lives that it is not biodegradable.
