This Hathaway rug is a great addition to your home. It combines vintage charm with modern style. When you have a spill, just grab a clean, white dry sponge or cloth and blot it right away. To make your rug last longer and be safer, use a proper rug pad on any surface. You might find some fibers shedding at first, which is normal. Vacuum the rug regularly. Set your vacuum to low power if it has that option. Instead of vacuuming back and forth, go the full length of the rug, turn, and then do the next section. With these simple steps, your rug will stay in great shape for a long time.
