This Province area rug is perfect for indoor use. Just place it in your living room, bedroom or any indoor space you like. If you spill something on it, quickly blot the stain with a clean cloth. Then, use mild soap and cold water to clean the area, and blot it dry. Don't let the rug stay wet for a long time. It's normal for the rug to shed some fibers at the beginning. You can vacuum it regularly, but remember to turn off the beater bar. As time goes by, the shedding will get less. To make your rug last longer, we suggest using an open - weave rubber rug pad under it.
