Custom Repair - Nepalese Rug

We had a custom repair request come in last week involving a beautiful Nepalese rug. The owner had purchased the rug in New York and had it for many years but one thing bothered her enough over time to find out her options of customizing the rug. The problem was the fringes; they were always getting caught in her vacuum. The fringes had become battered because of this and the owner was just tired of dealing with them. Take a look below:

She explained her problem to us at our showroom and we told her we could definitely get rid of the fringe and secure the ends with binding just like on the sides of the rug. She was ecstatic with this idea and immediately said yes to the idea; after our deep cleaning of course(we always recommend cleaning your rug before doing repairs so that you get a fresh, clean, repaired rug back). All the binding was done by hand by one of our master weavers; take a look at the results below:

Needless to say our customer was extremely happy with how everything turned out. She no longer has to deal with the fringes and she was very happy with her new custom rug. It is vibrant from the deep cleaning and is not going to cause her the headaches from trying to prevent the fringes from being sucked in by her vacuum. Here's to another successful custom rug job at Rug Ideas!

Custom Rug Job - Fringes Turn Into Binding

A Nepal Rug was brought in to our showroom by a customer who needed it cleaned recently. It is a beautiful 9 x 13 handmade rug that we had set up to go through our deep cleaning to bring back the color vibrancy as well as bring back the fluffiness to the pile. While our customer was filling our her paperwork she mentioned how much she hated the fringes on both ends, which had slowly been eaten away by many years of vacuuming and foot traffic. Take a look below:

We let our customer know that she could do a custom job on the rug to remove the fringes and sew binding on both ends. She was amazed that we could do that type of custom job and immediately placed the order to make it happen. The rug first went through our deep cleaning to get it totally cleaned, sanitized  and  deodorized. Once it was completely dry and ready we started to work on the binding. All the work was done by hand by one of our master weavers. We color matched the yarn(we use top of the line New Zealand wool) and the results came out fantastic. Take a look below:

Our customer was thrilled with how the rug turned out and cannot wait to get it back onto her living room floor. It is now clean, vibrant and now is a totally unique piece to be enjoyed for many years to come. Bring your custom jobs to Rug Ideas where our expertise translates into smiles for our customers!
